Huawei Mate XT tri-fold handset sees over 3 million pre-orders ahead of iPhone 16 launch

Around 3.04 million people have made reservations to buy the Mate XT as of Monday afternoon, just two days after Shenzhen-based Huawei launched pre-orders for its latest 5G smartphone model via its official e-commerce platform Vmall.com.

Reservations on Vmall.com, which does not require a deposit, will conclude on September 19. Still, those who reserved their spot have no guarantee to immediately get their order when sales commence on September 20, according to Huawei.

That has somehow created a grey-market service, worth 100 yuan to 600 yuan, to help those who pre-ordered Mate XT to get the device when sales start. Scalpers’ asking price for the Mate XT has reached at least 20,000 yuan, according to checks made on Xianyu, the online flea market of Alibaba Group Holding, owner of the South China Morning Post.

Privately held Huawei has not provided any details about the Mate XT’s price or full specifications. The online reservation page currently shows that the tri-fold handset will be available in two colours, red and black, and with 16-gigabyte random access memory, as well as internal storage options of 512GB and 1 terabyte.
