The annual Mobile World Congress will be held in Barcelona on the 26th of this month, with MWC being filled with Internet robot dogs and a host of VR products last year, but the real protagonist of the show is only mobile phones, Will muster full strength, with the best products to respond to aggressive iPhone X. Here we come to understand in advance under the major manufacturers in MWC dynamic:
Samsung
Last year, Samsung was not a bright spot on the MWC due to the extension of the Snapdragon 835, but they returned this year.
Judging from various sources of theft, this time the protagonist is the Galaxy S9 and S9 +, their screen will continue to increase the proportion, but the overall design style is still followed last year's S8 series.
However, Samsung has also changed the new marketing strategy, S9 smaller screen performance will be subject to some restrictions (RAM may only 4GB), but also because the design of the S8 has been quite perfect, so Samsung's main evolution of the S9 on the camera. S9 + is the real flagship camera with no dual camera for optical zooming and bokeh, but the criticism of the post-fingerprinting solution is still preserved, except that the location changes to the bottom of the camera.
Galaxy S9 series will be fully facelift Snapdragon 845 processor, while DeX workstations will also be upgraded to facilitate the user to use it as a desktop PC.
One Reddit user also said that the two new machines have become thicker and heavier, it looks like the S8 is not so brilliant, but grip is enhanced.In addition, it also means that the S9 and S9 + battery capacity may be Increase. The Reddit user claimed that, S9 + has a day and a half of life.
Of course, S9 series will also add features like Apple Animoji, but also to join the stereo speakers.
As for the use of folding screen Galaxy X debut at the MWC, it is still unknown.
Sony
Although it has become a niche player, but Sony's every move or concern .Not surprising, this year's MWC on the Xperia series will continue to evolve.
As the fully balanced design has been used for many years, so Sony can make a breakthrough in full screen design breakthrough has become the biggest suspense they will abandon since 2013, the big forehead and large chin design? In addition, Sony will With 4K full screen and dual camera to keep up with the times?
Huawei
Huawei, already the third largest vendor in the world, is also at the center of MWC, with their new flagship P20 (or P11) likely to make its debut. The P20 is also taking pictures, rumored to have deepened its cooperation with Leica P20 camera upgrade to 40 million pixels in one fell swoop, there is also a saying that P20 will be equipped with rear three cameras.
However, it is unclear whether Huawei will regard MWC as the main stage because they have already issued an invitation letter for flagship equipment conference, scheduled for the end of March.
In addition to the new flagship aircraft, Huawei may also bring VR equipment, the new MateBook or rumored Huawei Watch 2 smartwatch.

Rumors show that Nokia 9 dual-camera with 13 million +120 million design, the front camera is 5 million pixel level, the screen is 5.5 inches Full HD +.
6GB of running memory will certainly become the standard, but if Nokia want to try in the high-end market, we must use the latest processor. The price will certainly be a lot more expensive than the Nokia 8.
In addition, there are rumors that the Nokia 8 will be a new version, equipped with surround speakers and can take pictures or video camera before and after.Of course, Nokia will certainly bring a lot of cheap models that support 4G features.
