LAGOS – Huawei, a global technology leader, has introduced a revolutionary new masterpiece to its smartphone lineup—the HUAWEI Mate XT.
This groundbreaking tri-fold phone launched in September earned Best Smart Phone globally. Before its release, this disruptive gadget had over 8 million preorders.
Even though the lowest specification unit’s official pricing was $2,800, the price per unit for the privileged few who preordered and chose to sell owing to extreme scarcity and demand reached over $20,000 on the Chinese black market.
Last week, senior representatives from Huawei presented a sample of this ultra-advanced handset to Leo Stan Ekeh, Chairman of Zinox Group and Konga Group, at the Zinox Group Corporate Headquarters, Yudala Heights, Victoria Island in Lagos.

Mr. Ekeh had the honour of experiencing firsthand a device powered by analytics and AI designed to define the lifestyle of the modern 21st-century individual.
Huawei officials stated that this presentation to Mr. Ekeh was in recognition of his strategic contributions and pioneering role in Nigeria’s tech sector and, by extension, Africa’s digital transformation.
Mr. Ekeh’s career includes his tenure as Microsoft’s Global Partner Advisor and his recent acknowledgment as Forbes Best of Africa’s Leading Tech Icon.
Expressing gratitude for being the first Nigerian to experience the device, Mr. Ekeh conveyed his appreciation to the Huawei team for this honour.
He remarked on his prior interest in securing units of the handset but noted the high global demand and limited availability. Upon unpacking the smartphone in the presence of his guests and staff, Mr. Ekeh described the elegant device as a “testament to God’s definition of a new lifestyle.”
