On October 6, Huawei's overseas X account published the summary of the September 29 International Media Roundtable. Yu Chengdong, executive director of Huawei, director of the Product Investment Review Committee, and chairman of Terminal BG, discussed Huawei's consumer business and HarmonyOS ecosystem with a number of international media reporters. Speaking about Apple's entry into the folding screen phone market, Yu Chengdong said he was happy to see that his American counterpart recently launched a folding screen phone. “In fact, Huawei launched a similar horizontal folding product, the Pura X, last spring. At the time, Huawei designed a small screen and large screen version of this folding screen phone, and initially planned to release it at the same time. However, due to the significant resources and effort invested in building the HarmonyOS ecosystem, Huawei delayed the release of a larger version of Pura X Max until April of this year.” Yu Chengdong said, “When we were preparing to launch this wide-folding phone, I saw online reports that our American colleagues had also developed similar phones. This wide folding phone originally came from Huawei, and we started making it even earlier.” Yu Chengdong also revealed, “In the week after the release of the iPhone Duo, our Pura X Max sales increased 76%. Maybe it's because consumers prefer our products. Within a few months since its launch, the Pura X Max has sold over 1 million units. We welcome our peers to join the competition to provide consumers with better products and services. This kind of healthy competition will also encourage more users to choose folding screen phones.”
