Huawei Just Made a Weird Flip Phone (And It Doesn't Run Android)
Quoting: Huawei Just Made a Weird Flip Phone (And It Doesn't Run Android) —
Remember Huawei? The US banned the company from using Google apps and services or collaborating with US companies, but it has made a comeback and has continued selling phones, even without Google services. And it also makes foldable phones, too, even as its latest one might look a bit unique.
Huawei has introduced a new flip phone, the Pura X, featuring a unique sideways folding mechanism. Instead of flipping vertically, it flips horizontally and makes for a slightly wider device that's more appropriate to be used as a tablet. It has a 16:10 aspect ratio and the screen itself is 6.3 inches—if you remember how huge and wide phones were when 16:9 displays were over 6 inches, you can get a rough idea of the dimensions of this device. It's not quite a tablet, but it's not really a one-handed phone, either.
