Huawei's Mate XT 2 tri-fold launches Sept. 7 with a new inward-folding design — but U.S. restrictions mean no American release.

Another tri-folding phone is coming soon, with a catch — you can’t buy it in the US

Huawei is set to unveil its upcoming triple-folding smartphone, the Mate XT 2, during a September 7 event in China, according to a video teaser. The device is expected to feature a U-shaped, inward-folding design, differing from previous Z-shaped folds seen in previous models. Speculations suggest the phone will use a 6,000 mAh battery and will be powered by either a Kirin 9050 Pro or Kirin 9030S chipset.

The camera setup is anticipated to mirror that of the Mate X7. However, U.S. consumers will not be able to purchase the Mate XT 2 due to ongoing restrictions imposed by the American government following a long-standing dispute over national security concerns.
