Huawei racks up 3 mn pre-orders for tri-fold phone before iPhone 16 reveal

Apple on Monday is set to unveil its iPhone 16, focusing on how its flagship device’s features are infused with artificial intelligence, but it could be upstaged by a triple-folding smartphone released by China’s Huawei hours earlier.

Apple’s event at the tech giant’s Apple Park headquarters starts at 10 a.m. PDT (1700 GMT). Huawei has scheduled an announcement of its Mate XT phone just hours after the Apple presentation.
