This week was the busiest week in terms of smartphone launches after a long time. We witnessed new product announcements almost every day from multiple brands for different markets. But the upcoming week will be quiet as there are only 3 scheduled events.
Out of three, two of the conferences will be hosted by Vivo. One in India and the other in Malaysia. The third event will be headed by iQOO in China.
That said, only two of them are for new product announcements since the third one is for a new market debut. With that out the way, let’s take a look at these conferences one by one.
