iPhone 16 is not the future of smartphones, but this is | PA Show E17

Huawei's Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei’s Consumer Business Group, was recently spotted using the device in public, fueling speculation that the launch is imminent. And just the other day, the official invite to a September 10 announcement event came, courtesy of Yu himself. Hosting its tri-fold phone event mere hours after Apple's iPhone 16 announcement is no doubt a bold statement by the Chinese giant.

If Huawei can deliver on its promises, this tri-fold phone could indeed kickstart a foldable revolution, regardless whether customers internationally will be able to purchase this particular product.

In this week's PhoneArena Show episode, we also take a look at Apple's late but potentially seamless AI integration with the iPhone and its other products, as well as the recently launched Garmin Fenix 8, which turns out to be a serious competitor in the premium wearable market alongside Apple and Samsung.
