An ''exploded view'' display of the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate Design tri-foldable smartphone showcases its internal components and engineering at the Fira Gran Via in Barcelona, Spain, on March 5, 2026. The exhibit highlights the complex Tiangong hinge mechanism made of ultra-high strength steel. It features the dissection of the 10.2-inch flexible OLED display panel alongside the HiSilicon Kirin 9010 (7nm) octa-core processor and the layered structure of the 5,600mAh ultra-thin silicon-carbon battery system. Individual modules of the Ultra Aperture XMAGE camera system are visible, including the 50-megapixel main sensor with its 10-stop variable aperture mechanism and the 12-megapixel periscope telephoto lens with 5.5x optical zoom, demonstrating the precise arrangement required to maintain a 3.6mm unfolded thickness during the Mobile World Congress (MWC).
