Once unfolded, the Mate X becomes an 8-inch tablet. If you fold it, then you get two different screens. The front-facing screen will be of 6.6 inches while the back side display will be of 6.4 inches. The company isn’t revealing its camera specifications at the moment.

It will be a small item which will expand into a 6.5-inch screen phone which is predominant today.
Xiaomi
Xiaomi’s foldable phone is no longer just a prototype but a polished product. You can ascertain that from a recent promotional video launched by the company. The phone is undoubtedly an eye-catchy one with a double-folding feature. The top and the bottom of the tablet-like screen folds down, leaving you with a compact Smartphone. The phone will be known as Xiaomi Dual Flex or Xiaomi MIX Flex, but there isn’t any news on the release date.
Oppo

Now, the manufacturing company declared that they would bring one model if they notice enough interest. Specification details are unavailable as of yet, but pictures of the prototype are circling the internet. The folding mechanism resembles that of Mate X.
ZTE
This company’s 2017 model, the Axon M was a total disaster. Then again, it didn’t send the company to the grave.

Only drawings are available to help you understand what is in store.
