Huawei is leading the way in mobile technology with plans to produce rollable screen phones, promising to create a new breakthrough.
Huawei is emerging as a leading contender in the mobile technology space, hoping to be the world’s first brand to mass-produce a rollable display phone. The company made a splash when it launched its first triple-folding phone, the Huawei Mate XT, in September 2024, with large-scale production.

Huawei recently announced plans to launch a new device optimized for its HarmonyOS operating system. The latest information suggests that the company may soon expand its product portfolio by mass producing phones with unique rollable screens. If this information is confirmed, Huawei will not only be the first company to bring a rollable screen phone to market, but also the only company in the industry that has the technology to produce a variety of foldable screens, from small, large, outer, tri-fold to rollable screens.
This demonstrates Huawei’s strong investment and outstanding R&D capabilities. Although many other manufacturers have experimented with the idea of rollable screen phones through concepts or prototypes, none have succeeded in mass-producing this product. Huawei seems to be overcoming the technical barriers to making this idea a reality.
Huawei has built a solid technological foundation for the development of rollable displays. In February 2024, the company was granted a patent for a “folding mechanism, rollable display structure, and electronic device.” The patent details an electronic device with a rollable display that allows for the display area to be expanded when needed, while still ensuring convenience in daily use and supporting new features.
However, it should be noted that in the past, there have been many similar rumors about Huawei's rollable screen phone, but they were all ultimately unconfirmed. Therefore, users should approach this information with caution and wait for an official announcement from Huawei to get the most accurate information.
