We had smartphone launches almost every day recently. Despite that, even more handsets are scheduled to go official over the next week.
As of writing this article, five brands have confirmed events in the next few days. These companies are Honor, Motorola, Redmi, Vivo, and Tecno.
Two of them will unveil foldables phones. While one of them will take wraps off new-gen models in a globally popular mid-range series.
As far as regions are concerned, two of these conferences will take place in China, one in Singapore, and the remaining two in India.
With that out of the way, let’s take a look at the handsets that are about to launch soon.
