Huawei runs it’s own branch of Android since it lost its ability to offer Google services.

In the case you’re not paying for “Android” but for the tech, whatever you think about it it’s a tech that no-one else is yet doing, least of all Apple which in real terms is still playing catch-up with Android and it’s insistance of a walled garden .

It uses the nomenclature from brochures etc. Trifolds have two folds but 3 panels.

But a trifold phone is way cooler than a laptop so of course it costs more.

I think it’s just a fancy way to make a phone turn into a tablet, which I don’t see much point in. Or rather, I do see the point just not the appeal. Now if they made a Surface style tablet-laptop I’d take a second look.

The whole thing just turns into one big screen.

The third panel turns it into a proper 16:9 display, like you would find on many tablets and laptops. The pointless part is the second panel, which has a weird aspect ratio that is not natively supported by media (letterboxing in basically all videos) and many apps.

All models are equipped with 16GB of RAM, and two additional storage variants are available that cost 21,999 yuan (about $3,089) for 512GB and 23,999 yuan (about $3,370) for 1TB.

They are learning from Apple about the memory price. $300 for 512 gb additional memory storage is insane.

You’re right, it is insane(ly cheap) for Memory, a bit overpriced for storage though
