• HUAWEI introduced the Mate XT last year as a 10.2-inch triple-screen foldable phone.
• While consumer demand was high, sales of the Mate XT were initially limited to China.
• HUAWEI has now scheduled an event for February 18 where the company teases news of expanded Mate XT sales.

Companies that make the best foldable smartphones have been seriously pushing manufacturing limits over the past year or so, bringing us some stunning hardware like the impressively thin Oppo Find N5. Sadly for many of us, some of those coolest foldable models aren’t available in many markets, often arriving as China exclusives. The good news there is that sales can always expand, like we just heard about Oppo planning for the Find N5. Now we’re learning new details about another high-end foldable’s plans for international expansion.

We’re talking about the HUAWEI Mate XT, which debuted last year as the first foldable model that bends twice, for a three-screen effect. While that novel construction and huge 10.2-inch display instantly made this one of the most desirable foldables to date, it was also prohibitively expensive, demanding in the neighborhood of $3,000.
