Huawei’s MateBook Fold Ultimate resembles a typical 13-inch laptop, but it actually features an 18-inch foldable design. The lower part of the display allows for a virtual on-screen keyboard or any other utility of your choice. With a weight of just 1.16kg, it is 14.9mm thick when closed and 7.3mm when opened.
The display quality is outstanding, boasting a 4:3 aspect ratio (3,296 x 2,472px) when opened and 3:2 when in laptop mode (2,472 x 1,648px resolution). It utilizes a dual-layer OLED LTPO panel that can produce an impressive brightness of 1,600 nits and features a 1,440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming.

In addition to the CPU, it includes a 16-core ARM Immortalis-G925 GPU and a 6-core NPU with a score of 44 TOPS.
Xiaomi reports that their flagship SoC achieved over 3 million points on the AnTuTu benchmarking platform, surpassing the Snapdragon 8 Elite. It also scored above 3,000 points in single-core and 9,000 in multi-core tests on Geekbench 6, with its multi-core score exceeding that of Apple’s A18 Pro. The Xring O1 supports cutting-edge LPDDR5T RAM, UFS 4.1 storage, USB 3.2 Gen2 connectivity, Wi-Fi 7, and includes a custom 3-core Xiaomi ISP.
Additional devices, including a tablet, audio wearables, and a fast-charging power bank, will also be showcased.
