Huawei is trying to outshine Apple's iPhone Ultra launch with a cutting-edge new tri-fold

No access to the Google play store, not EASILY available globally, won't work on most phone networks, most people will never see it.

Had three Huawei phones back in the day but not anymore. If the ban were lifted, and they had access EASILY to Google I'd probably get another Huawei phone.

Pretty much just an overpriced paperweight outside of China.

An innovative approach to Foldables that is easily available outside of China through various import sites like Aliexpress, Average Dad Tech Store, Giztop, Wonda Mobile, Trinity Electronic, etc. Easy access to Android and Google apps through EasyAbroad and DroiTong, and has access to plenty of phone networks, as the U.S. market isn't the only one with phone networks. However, Chinese ROM smartphones have access to T-Mobiles network. Definitely not a paperweight outside of China.

I bought the Mate XT in Dubai earlier this year and love it. The EMUI version works great with only occasional issues. I was worried I was going to really want the next version as well, but mercifully for my bank account, I'll pass. I think they nailed it with the first version, the fold was logical. But the extra screen makes it less unique; I fiddled with the Samsung tr-fold in one of their experience stores and didn't care for it, just too, too much...

Nothing screams 'mainstream global success' quite like having to play digital gymnastics with five different import resellers, third-party sideload apps, and a prayer just to get standard notifications on a $3,000 phone. That's just basic functionality being crippled by the lack of Google services or Play Store access. PSA, not everyone has or wants access to T-Mobile especially when you consider all the anti consumer practices T-Mobile is implementing right now.

The above tomfoolery has been brought to you by 🧟, who is 😭 because I said something factual that she can't dispute and doesn't agree with.

The tomfoolery here on this article is the one who's coping with the fact that it's glorifying an overpriced paperweight outside of China. Crying emojis and calling basic logistics 'tomfoolery' while looking like a 😡😠 🤡🤓 queen doesn't change the fact that you're treating an expensive Chinese ROM import like a DIY survivalist project just to check your email. Essentially an overpriced paperweight outside of China, as I CORRECTLY said before.

The above shenanigans, tomfoolery, false narratives and ⛽ 💡ing that has been brought to you by 🧟 has been elevated beyond 😭 to 😠😤😡🤬😭, and it's all because I said something factual that she doesn't agree with, and still can't factually dispute because she lacks any type of experience with HarmonyOS powered devices.

Using six different angry emojis and calling reality 'gaslighting' as a coping mechanism for the facts getting stated doesn't magically make third-party import workarounds, missing push notifications, and a lack of native Google Services go away. Keep calling it 'experience' if it helps you cope with paying luxury prices for a glorified paperweight that requires an instruction manual just to function outside its home country. 😏

The above coping mechanism, false narratives and ⛽ 💡ing that has been brought to you by you know who has been elevated beyond 😭 to 😠😤😡🤬😭, and it's all because I said something factual that she doesn't agree with, and still can't factually dispute because she lacks any type of experience with HarmonyOS powered devices. She doesn't even know how imports work, as importing is not a workaround. 😏
