The number of smartphone launches next week is expected to be too many. That’s because some of the big-name launches intended for this week have been postponed. These events are now expected to take place as early as next week.
A total of 5 brands may hold press conferences in the upcoming days. Three of them will take place in China, while the remaining two will be held in global markets.
The companies that will be debuting new handsets are Xiaomi, iQOO, Huawei, Tecno, and Realme. Let’s take a look at all the phones that are expected to go official next week.
Upcoming Smartphones Next Week
1. Tecno Phantom X2
The Tecno Phantom X2 is scheduled to launch on December 7. The press conference will be held in Dubai. We are not sure whether there will be a live stream.
Thanks to leaks and official teasers, we know a lot about the successor of the original Phantom X. Its main highlights will be MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset and 6.8-inch FHD+ 120Hz curved Super AMOLED display.
Other expected features include a 64MP triple camera system, a 32MP selfie camera, Android 12, and a 5,100mAh battery.
2. Realme 10 Pro Series
The Realme 10 Pro series is set to launch in global markets, including India, on December 8. These phones are already official in China, and therefore, we know everything about them.
The Realme 10 Pro Plus arrives with a 6.7-inch FHD+ 120Hz curved AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 1080 chip, 108MP main camera, 16MP selfie camera, Android 13, 5,000mAh battery, and 67W fast wired charging support.

3. Xiaomi 13 Series
The Xiaomi 13 series was supposed to go official on December 1. But it has been now delayed. Though the company is yet to announce the new launch date, we believe that it may mostly make its debut next week.
As per teasers and leaks, the lineup consists of two models, namely Xiaomi 13 and Xiaomi 13 Pro. Both will have a similar design, however, the vanilla variant will be smaller and sport a flat display instead of a curved panel like the pro version.
The duo will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset. They will sport a Leica-powered triple-camera system. The sensors will be different on the two but they will have three proper lenses (wide, 75mm telephoto, and ultra-wide).
The duo will be IP68-rated for dust and water resistance. They will have support for 67W (standard)/120W (pro) wired charging, 50W wireless charging, and 10W reverse wireless charging.
4. iQOO 11 Series and iQOO Neo 7 SE
The iQOO 11 series and iQO Neo 7 SE were scheduled to launch on December 2. But unfortunately, the event has been now delayed and the new launch date is yet to be announced. The devices will likely debut next week.
According to official teasers and leaks, the iQOO 11 family will consist of iQOO 11 and iQOO 11 Pro. They will look similar with one major difference. The pro model will flaunt a curved display instead of a flat screen like the regular model.
The Pro variant is said to come with a 6.78-inch QHD+ 120Hz Samsung E6 curved AMOLED display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, 50MP Sony IMX866 main camera, 4,700mAh battery, 200W fast wired charging support, and more.
Whereas, the iQOO Neo 7 SE is expected to arrive with a 6.78-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, MediaTek Dimensity 8200 SoC, 64MP primary camera, Android 13, 5,000mAh battery, 120W fast wired charging support, and more.

Huawei scheduled a press conference in China for December 2. This event has been postponed, just like the previously discussed two events. There’s no new date announcement from the company yet but it will most probably take place next week.
The company has confirmed to unveil two handsets at this event, namely Huawei Enjoy 50z and Huawei Nova 10 SE. Both of them are already official in global markets. The former goes by Huawei Nova Y61.
These 4G budget smartphones will be accompanied by Huawei Watch Buds, Huawei Watch Kids 5X, and Huawei FreeBuds 5i.
