Samsung Electronics on Wednesday unveiled thinner, lighter new foldable phones as it aims to fend off Chinese competition in the higher-margin, premium segment that remains untapped by arch rival Apple.

The Huawei Mate XT Ultimate sets a new benchmark for tri-fold phones, showing they're no longer just experimental - but a bold step toward the future of mobile computing.

Samsung’s new phones hit shelves later this month, days after Chinese rival Honor launched its new folding phone.
