Huawei patents clamshell foldable phone like Galaxy Z Flip

Beijing: Chinese smartphone maker Huawei has filed a new patent for a new clamshell design foldable phone, which resembles Samsung Galaxy Z Flip.

The patent was filed by Huawei with the Chinese patent authority CNIPA last year which has been granted approval now.

The patents reveal a foldable flip phone designed handset with a vertically-stacked camera module on the rear, reports GizmoChina.

The images reveal that the device is expected to feature a notch on the top which houses a selfie camera and some biometric sensors. One the right side of the smartphone, one would see the volume and power buttons.

The back sports multiple cameras setup in the left corner which is separated from the flash as well as what appears to be a long secondary display below the cameras.
