Mobile World Congress hasn’t kicked off yet, but an early leak of a banner by Twitter user @gimme2pm may have blown one of the biggest announcements: the foldable Huawei Mate X that the company will presumably announce at this year’s show, via 9to5Google.

Huawei has been talking about the idea of a folding 5G phone for months, and it recently promised a full announcement with a brief teaser on its MWC invitation. The leaked banner gives the best look at phone yet, along with seemingly confirming that it’ll be called the Mate X.
While details are slim, Huawei’s poster is billing...
