It was long rumored that Huawei has been working on the phone. Though Huawei didn’t directly mention that it’s a foldable phone, but the teaser image labeled ‘Connecting the Future’, shows the outline of a foldable phone with a mention of date and time for the unpacking. Moreover, tweets following the post also suggest that this might also be a 5G device, making it the ‘world’s first 5G foldable phone’.
Samsung too is expected to reveal its foldable device in the first half of 2019, but the firm still hasn’t confirmed a date. Rumor has it that the device will be unveiled on February 20, 2019 along with its Galaxy S10 series.
