Counterpoint: China's foldable phone shipments are expected to reach 9.1 million units in 2024, a year-on-year increase of only 2%

Since the birth of the foldable smartphone market, the Chinese market has experienced significant growth, but the growth rate has slowed down. According to data from research firm Counterpoint Research, China's foldable phone shipments are expected to reach 9.1 million units in 2024, a year-on-year increase of only 2%. This increase is in stark contrast to the triple-digit annual growth rate in the past few years.

In order to attract more consumers and promote wider adoption of such devices, it is particularly important to develop innovative and attractive new application scenarios.

By providing a more diverse user experience, manufacturers can stimulate the interest of potential users and drive sales growth.

In the Chinese market, Huawei is the leader in the field of foldable screen mobile phones, occupying about half of the market share.

The company’s recently launched new products - including the X6 series and a tri-fold model with a breakthrough design - are expected to further stimulate market demand, not only helping to boost overall shipments but also consolidating Huawei’s leading position in the segment.
