Huawei has made seriously impressive strides in getting Chinese software developers to update the top 300 apps to optimize for the larger form factor, something Google itself hasn't been able to pull off on tablets, let alone foldables.

Some quick thoughts: This is China-only to start, but the design sets a high bar globally. The price (~$2800) is prohibitive, but Huawei's supply chain is constrained by U.S. sanctions. It makes sense to go for profits over volumes.

Huawei's Mate X2 foldable looks good but I hope this doesn't portend the end of form factor experimentation in foldables. We've barely seen a half dozen different kinds so far! https://www.theverge.com/...
