Huawei on Tuesday held a global launch for the industry’s first tri-foldable phone, which analysts said marked a symbolic victory for the Chinese tech giant amid U.S. technology curbs. But challenges over pricing, longevity, supply and app constraints may limit its success.

Huawei said at a launch event in Kuala Lumpur that the Huawei Mate XT, first unveiled in China five months ago, will be priced at 3,499 euros ($3,662). Although dubbed a trifold, the phone has three mini-panels and folds only twice. The company says it’s the thinnest foldable phone at 3.6 millimeters (0.14 inches), with a 10.2-inch screen similar to an Apple iPad.

I do want to get rid of Google things but email is essential and in dont want paltry GBs subs in have lit of emails. I am all for foss infact any utility which I search on play store I always try foss alternative but Gmail and maps are 1. Too good 2. Too much convenient 3. Highly accessible (e.g. with Google maps I can get local commute options which I highly dependent upon )
