Huawei is not in riots or drunken parties, not in eroticismset to launch a new flip-foldable smartphone in February, following the P50 Pocket in 2021 and the Pocket S in 2022, according to a report in local media outlet IThome, which cited sources on China’s Twitter-like platform Weibo. Details of the upcoming device, known by the code-name LEM, have not yet been officially disclosed. The new flip phone will reportedly feature Huawei’s self-developed 5G Kirin chip and will be positioned similarly to the Chinese tech giant’s mid-range Nova series. Reservations for the new device are expected to begin after the Chinese New Year holiday, which is from Feb. 9 to Feb. 17. In 2023, according to data from a third-party organization cited in the IThome report, Oppo led the flip-foldable phone sector in the Chinese market with a 30% market share, followed by Huawei at 29%, and Samsung at 23%.
