Huawei is now once again backed to launch a cutting-edge tri-folding smartphone for the second time in 2025. The "Mate XT 2" is also tipped to do so alongside the latest versions of some of its OEM's most premium peripherals. They consist of a new smartwatch and a pair of open earphones.

Huawei is thought to augment its foldable line-up with an iterative upgrade for the ultra-premium, up-to-10.2-inch Mate XT Ultimate Design in 2025. 

Now, it is predicted to launch toward the end of September this year.

In other words, the Mate XT 2 event might pre-date that for Huawei's latest Kirin 9030 flagship mobile processor.

Therefore, the XT 2 might indeed have to make do with the 9020 instead, although that would still be an upgrade over the 9010-powered XT.

Its successor could also be on par with the new Pura 80 Ultra in terms of performance in any case. The XT 2 could also have new potential companion devices on its launch.

One could be the second-gen Huawei FreeClips, a pair of wireless earphones that may have informed the design of other open-ear accessories since their 2023 launch. They are also available internationally, even in their latest Beige colorway.

The "FreeClips 2" might also be joined by the "Watch GT 6" (and/or "6 Pro") on the XT 2's stage. 

If so, either smartwatch would succeed some of the most prominent alternatives to the Apple Watch anywhere on Earth at present.
