The latest Huawei folding phone kind of previews the iPhone Ultra
9to5Mac • • technology
Key Points:
- The latest Android foldable smartphones, such as the Oppo Find N6 and Huawei Pura X Max 5G, closely resemble the anticipated form factor of Apple's upcoming iPhone Ultra, previously rumored as the iPhone Fold.
- Apple has delayed its entry into the foldable market for about eight years, primarily due to challenges with folding display quality, including issues like visible creases and vulnerability to damage from dust.
- Apple is believed to have addressed these problems through in-house engineering of the display and hinge, aiming for a launch around September or shortly thereafter.
- The Huawei Pura X Max 5G, recently launched in China, shares a similar design with the expected iPhone Ultra, featuring a wider external screen and a comparable internal display size, as well as a similarly placed camera module.
- Apple’s implementation is expected to feature a sleeker camera design and a near-creaseless display akin to that seen on the Oppo Find N6, highlighting advancements in foldable smartphone technology.
