Huawei is reportedly preparing a wider Nova Flip for 2027, with a 6. 3-inch screen that would give the compact foldable a shorter, broader shape when opened. The rumored redesign fits a trend across the global smartphone industry.
Book-style foldables such as Apple’s iPhone Duo and Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 have embraced wider proportions, and regular phones such as Huawei’s Pura X View are following suit.
