More modern business professionals demand both power and flexibility, and the right tools can make all the difference to keep them ahead. Makati Business Club (MBC) Executive Director Rafael “Apa” Ongpin has recently gained firsthand experience with HUAWEI’s latest foldable marvel, the HUAWEI Mate XT.
Ongpin believes the HUAWEI Mate XT to be a true game-changer that helps boost productivity, streamline multitasking, and enhance communication for high-level executives and managers. “It’s for a wide range of people,” said Ongpin. “It has great capabilities, processing power, and the battery life in particular is excellent.”
Exceptional Engineering for a Truly Innovative and Sleek Device

Ongpin’s immediate impression of the HUAWEI Mate XT? “It’s so well made,” said the MBC Executive Director. The ultra-slim tri-fold device, which is only 3.6mm thin when unfolded, fits easily in your hands or your pocket. The HUAWEI Mate XT features a unique Noble ID design that keeps it looking sophisticated and elegant. HUAWEI’s tri-fold device is designed with Eonic Curves, with layers of fine steel to give the phone a unique pattern and a comfortable feel. The phone is wrapped in a thin layer of leather with an Umber Gold Waistline to enhance its luxurious look.
“It’s beautifully engineered. It really speaks of thoughtfulness and quality, especially the way it unfolds and folds. It’s an admirable engineering object,” remarked Ongpin. The HUAWEI Mate XT is the first foldable device with both inward and outward folding capabilities. Made with multi-directional flexible materials that resist compression and tension, ultra-thin glass (UTG), and Non-Newtonian Fluid Materials, the tri-fold phone is designed for resilience and durability. Its Advanced Precision Hinge System and a hinge made from high-strength steel, give you a flawless and smooth folding and unfolding experience every time.
Do More from One Device Anytime, Anywhere
Perhaps the most striking aspect of the HUAWEI Mate XT is its expansive display, thanks to its tri-fold design, which allows users like Ongpin to unfold endless potential—all from one device. “It functions as a tablet as well as a phone. I could do all my work on this thing,” said Ongpin. From e-mails and messaging, to referring to various websites for research, Ongpin claimed that the HUAWEI Mate XT is the ideal device for such tasks. “It’s much better because of the bigger screen.”

When folded in Single Screen Mode, the HUAWEI Mate XT functions as a sleek, bar-type phone perfect for quick calls, messages, and emails. When you need more display space, you can expand the screen to Dual Screen Mode to make it easier to review documents, compare files, and take notes. For heavier workload, unfold the HUAWEI Mate XT to Triple Screen Mode and transform the device into a full workstation with desktop-style multi-window support, ideal for making presentations, analyzing reports, or running video meetings. Pair it with a Bluetooth keyboard and stylus, and the HUAWEI Mate XT becomes a true PC-like powerhouse to keep you productive even while on the go.
For Ongpin, the tri-fold screen feature makes the HUAWEI Mate XT an absolute must-have. But while this feature is one of the main highlights of using the HUAWEI Mate XT, Ongpin also highlights the Ultra Chroma Camera feature of the phone, which captures vibrant lifelike photos perfect for any social media posting or for visual aids on a presentation. “The camera is really fantastic. I’m very impressed with the camera, and I’m a photography enthusiast; I really like the images that it produces,” the MBC Executive Director remarked.
Stay Connected on the Go with HUAWEI’s Foldable Powerhouse

Beyond its elegant look and groundbreaking tri-fold feature, Ongpin was also impressed by the HUAWEI Mate XT’s overall performance. “The battery life in particular is really great,” he said. The HUAWEI Mate XT comes with a 1.9mm thin 5,600mAh battery which ensures the device’s long-lasting performance without compromising its slim look and portability.
“A single charge lasts me more than two days with regular use. I think it’s great for someone on the go who doesn’t have time to charge the phone,” claimed Ongpin. “It’s really great for people who are mobile and need to attend a lot of events, and so on and so forth, because you’re taking your office with you.”
“It’s really a big advancement that it’s both a phone and a tablet,” commented Ongpin. Dubbing the HUAWEI Mate XT as the first true ‘phablet,’ a play on phone and tablet, the MBC Executive Director said, “It really gives you a lot of room and flexibility to work with.”
He added, “In today’s business landscape, you do a lot of business on the phone and this is a great tool for that because you have a bigger screen.” Ongpin also expressed how user-friendly the phone is, saying, “It (has) a great interface. The learning curve is very (shallow), I learned to use all the different features very quickly. It’s an excellent tool.”
