**Ultimate Design: A Wing-Like Form for Intuitive Control**

The new HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN features a wing-like tri-fold design 
that opens from both sides, offering a more intuitive unfolding experience. The 
design philosophy draws on Chinese aesthetics, with a cloud pattern on the back 
panel created using Brocade Cloud craftsmanship. It is available in three colors:
Purple, White, and Black. The camera ring inherits the iconic Star Diamond Glow 
design, crafted from Yttrium Crystal and fired at 1,800°C. Combining gemstone design
and cutting techniques, it undergoes eight steps of fine polishing to form 33 star
diamond facets, delivering a dazzling gemstone-like luster^([1]).

The device features the Xuanwu Ultra-Durable Tri-Fold Architecture, which re-engineers
the hinge and screen technology for layered protection from the inside out. It is
the first tri-fold phone to support IP58/59 dust and water resistance^([2]). The
cover screen, made of Xuanwu Kunlun Glass^([3]), resists daily scratches and impacts
with ease. It also features anti-glare technology, ensuring clear visibility even
under direct sunlight. The main screen uses a multi-layer composite ultra-tough 
structure, including a large UTG glass layer, aerospace-grade ultra-thin high-strength
steel, and a carbon fiber support layer, providing robust impact resistance. The
Advanced Precision Hinge System 2.0 employs a 5 curved arm structure and a synchronized
linkage mechanism for even force distribution and reliable pressure resistance.

**Ultimate Performance: Kirin Chipset, a Leap in Power**

The HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN is the first to feature the Kirin 9050 Pro
chip, delivering a dual leap in performance and energy efficiency. Through the greater
synergy between hardware, software, chips, and cloud, overall device performance
is improved by 42% compared to the previous generation^([4]). The LinxiCore CPU,
combined with the Ultra-smooth HUAWEI Ark Engine, enables faster loading of large
files and superior performance when running multiple apps or multitasking. The Maleoon
GPU has featured compute units and double cache, significantly enhancing rendering
performance. In gaming scenarios, it supports hardware-level real-time ray tracing
with up to 50 million rays per second, delivering a more immersive and realistic
experience. The HUAWEI Da Vinci Architecture NPU brings a leap in on-device AI computing
capability, supporting multi-sized large models. For the first time in the industry,
it natively supports the on-device Pangu Large Model (30B-A2B), enabling smart experiences
such as on-device AI album management with Celia.

The innovative heat dissipation architecture distributes heat sources across three
frames, working with ultra-large vapor chambers and highly thermally conductive 
graphene materials to efficiently conduct heat across axes. Intelligent collaboration
of multiple communication systems and 32 distributed antennas ensures faster 5A 
connectivity. It supports Tiantong satellite communication and Beidou satellite 
messaging, ensuring connectivity anywhere in the world. The Mobile Security Processor,
combined with an independent security chip, enables post-quantum cryptography algorithm
detection and has passed EAL5+ CCRC security certification, providing dual protection
for personal data and assets.

**Ultimate Technology: A Masterpiece of Innovation for Peace of Mind**

The industry’s first foldable Smart Shield Privacy Screen is now available, marking
the first time hardware-level privacy protection is achieved on a foldable device
^([5]). It features an independent dual-pixel design, ensuring consistent screen
resolution before and after activating Privacy mode, maintaining a clear front-facing
view. With intelligent sensing capabilities, it provides smart reminders when entering
airports or train stations. It also supports elegant activation of Privacy mode 
through methods such as double-tapping the cover screen or the Smart controls button.

The HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN is equipped with ECG analysis software and
has obtained the NMPA Class II Medical Device Registration Certificate^([6]). Users
can initiate an ECG measurement by holding the unfolded large screen with both hands.
Celia intelligently interprets and analyzes the report, providing thoughtful care.

**Ultimate Photography: True-to-Color Camera 3.0, Capturing Every Moment**

The HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN undergoes a comprehensive upgrade from optical
hardware to computing power. It is the first to feature the True-to-Color Camera
3.0, which effectively filters out infrared light interference, improving color 
reproduction by 95% compared to the previous generation. It also features an ultra-
HDR main camera, ultra-wide aperture periscope telephoto camera, and Ultra-wide 
angle camera, delivering true-to-life colors, realistic portraits, and clear night
shots, with excellent performance at both close and long distances. Video recording
supports an ultra-high dynamic range of 18 EV, ensuring outstanding image quality
in every frame.

AI composition has been upgraded to intelligently recognize people, scenery, and
food scenes, and supports AIGC real-time previews for clear composition and lighting
recommendations. Its unique tri-fold form enables Desk-calendar mode shooting, making
it easy to capture warm moments, whether for selfies or group photos.

**Ultimate Experience: A Superior Large-Screen Experience**

The HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN is powered by the new HarmonyOS 7, redefining
the large-screen interaction experience. The Live-Multitask capability supports 
three windows displayed in parallel, with adjustable window sizes and independent
volume control. This large-screen experience covers core scenarios such as financial
management, social entertainment, smart office, shopping comparison, and travel 
guides. Furthermore, it has been deeply adapted to leading industry apps, continuously
driving innovation in the tri-fold large-screen ecosystem.

The HUAWEI Mate XT 2 | ULTIMATE DESIGN starts at RMB 19,999 and will be available
for purchase along with a stylus set, with official sales beginning at 10:08 on 
September 12^(th).
