While Huawei is still facing major headwinds in the smartphone market, the company is still forging ahead with new products.

With clamshell foldables being on the rise, the Chinese company is working on its own version of the new format.
A recently published patent which dates to the 16th April 2019 shows a new hinged smartphone reminiscent of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip.

While the patent does not guarantee a device will end up being produced, it seems likely Huawei will produce such a device sooner rather than later.

This Hinge Design From Huawei May Avoid Creases On Foldable Smartphones

One of the many cons of the current-generation foldable devices is the issue with creases on the display. Since flexible display panels used in such devices can be, well, folded in half, they grow a noticeable crease along the folding line over an extended period of use. Huawei seems to have a solution to this problem.

Huawei had filed this design patent with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) vide application number WOCN19082895 on April 16, 2019. That's much before the company released its first foldable smartphone, the Huawei Mate X. However, WIPO approved and published the patent only on October 22, 2020.
