MWC 2023: Best Products & Announcements

Joel Joseph — Tue, 28 Feb 2023 02:26:56 +0000

The Mobile World Congress has returned to its full glory in 2023, with thousands of attendees and brands participating in one of the largest tech fairs in the world. The event officially commenced today, February 27, and will continue until March 2. The first day of the event is typically the busiest, as brands compete to unveil their most significant products and technological advancements on the opening day.

As expected, the first day of MWC 2023 was packed with activity, with numerous announcements from high-profile brands such as Huawei, Honor, Oppo, OnePlus, Lenovo, and others. Given the vast number of products showcased at the event, let’s quickly review the standout product announcements made on the first day of the event.

Here are the Best Products & Announcements of MWC 2023

Lenovo’s Rollable Concept Smartphone & Laptop

MWC 2023’s first day kicked off with two interesting products on display – the Rollable Concept laptop and the Moto Rizr rollable smartphone.

As foldable smartphones and even laptops are gaining popularity, Lenovo’s take on a rollable form factor looks a lot more promising. Both the smartphone and the laptop can extend their screen size to suit your requirement, with a single push of a button. While the Rizr looks very interesting and some might even prefer it over a traditional foldable, the rollable laptop concept looks a lot more viable.

The rollable laptop comes with a standard 12.7-inch display with a 4:3 aspect ratio in its default mode. However, with the push of a button, a pair of internal motors smoothly extend the screen from beneath the laptop’s keyboard to an almost square 15.3-inch display with an 8:9 aspect ratio, providing a significantly larger viewing area.

Here are more details on the Rollable Rizr Smartphone and Lenovo’s Concept Laptop.

LiFi – The next evolution in Wireless Connectivity?

Li-Fi or Light Fidelity is a wireless technology that utilizes light to transmit data between two devices. The technology employs light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to send data at high speeds over the visible light spectrum. It comes with several advantages over Wi-Fi, such as faster speeds and even better security. However, it requires a direct line of sight between the transmitter and receiver, limiting its implementation.

That said, Li-Fi may go mainstream as smartphones could soon add Li-Fi as another wireless communication technology. This is made possible by pureLiFi’s Light Antenna One, a first-of-its-kind wireless communications antenna, that implements this technology on smartphones and other connected devices at a large scale. The device is compliant with the forthcoming IEEE 802.11bb standard, so manufacturers can seamlessly integrate LiFi with existing 802.11 Wi-Fi networking equipment and the billions of devices that currently use 802.11 Wi-Fi chipsets annually.

More details on pureLiFi Antennas are here.

Satellite Comms Go Mainstream on Phones, Thanks to Qualcomm

Satellite communication is the new buzz in the smartphone industry with major players like Apple, Samsung, and even Huawei (rumored) integrating this technology into their smartphones and devices. However, Qualcomm is making satellite communications more accessible to smartphone manufacturers by integrating this feature into multiple RF modems and its 8 and 4 series of processors for smartphones. The company has partnered with the satellite service provider Iridium to bring two-way texting and more emergency satellite communication options to smartphones.

So if you were feeling left out by the announcements from Apple and Samsung, fret not as Qualcomm confirms most major manufacturers like Xiaomi, Vivo, Motorola, Oppo, Honor, and Nothing are going to bring satellite communication to their smartphones in the near future. Unfortunately, we don’t have a timeline yet on when it will be available on these manufacturer devices.

It is worth noting that MediaTek is also bringing a similar feature (in partnership with Bullitt).

You can read more about Qualcomm’s announcement about Satellite Communication technology here.

OnePlus 11 Concept Gets Glowing Liquid Cooling

OnePlus’ awaited OnePlus 11 Concept smartphone was officially unveiled today and the wait was fairly justified because it brings a glowing liquid active cooling technology called Active CryoFlux. The OnePlus 11 concept can bring the thermals down during gameplay by up to 2.1℃ and during charging by around 1.6℃. OnePlus claims this technology can increase the frame rate by up to 3 to 4 fps and reduces the charging time by around 30 to 45 seconds.

Along with the smartphone, OnePlus showcased an even more interesting gadget – a 45W Liquid Cooling Accessory that can reduce phone temperature by up to an impressive 20℃.

More information on OnePlus 11 Concept here and the OnePlus 45W Liquid Cooling accessory here.

Tecno Has A Color Changing Chameleon Smartphone

Tecno’s love for color-changing smartphones isn’t new. Last year we saw the Tecno Mondrian edition with unique color-changing technology. At MWC 2023, it takes things to another level with its Chameleon Color Changing Smartphone concept.

The smartphone allows you to manually select from a total of 1600 different colors using the device software, or it can be set to vary automatically based on the battery level, music, or notifications. The material can change its color in just 0.03 seconds and also utilizes very little energy; around 100 changes throughout the day will use energy equivalent to watching a 5-minute video.

You can read more about Tecno’s color-changing technology from our story here.

Two New Foldables – Honor Magic Vs & Tecno Phantom V Fold

MWC 2023 saw two new foldable launches.

Honor announced the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 powered Honor Magic Vs Fold, featuring a 6.45-inch external OLED 120Hz display and a 7.9-inch large 90Hz unfolded OLED screen. The Magic Vs will start at EUR 1599.

On the other hand, the Tecno Phantom V Fold is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 9000+ processor and has an ultra-clear 5-lens photography system featuring a 50-megapixel main camera and a super light-sensitive custom sensor. However, no more details are available about the device.

While Tecno has not shared any details about a potential launch of its foldable, it’s good to see more brands enter this market.

More details about the Honor Magic Vs here and Tecno Phantom V Fold here.

These were some of the most interesting announcements on the first day at MWC 2023. But if you want to check out all the announcements from the event today, like the Lenovo Laptop updates, Google’s new Android features, or even Xiaomi’s 13 series launches – head over to our MWC 2023 page.

Tecno Unveils its First Foldable Phone, the Phantom V Fold with MediaTek Dimensity 9000+

Oğuz Çakır — Mon, 27 Feb 2023 15:11:21 +0000

Foldable smartphones continue to become widespread. Almost every day, another manufacturer joins the market competition led by Samsung and Huawei. Lastly, Tecno has launched its first foldable smartphone at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 in Barcelona. Here are the details…

Tecno Unveils its First Foldable Phone, the Phantom V Fold with MediaTek Dimensity 9000+

Tecno today marks its debut at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 in Barcelona. To celebrate, the brand will be launching its first foldable smartphone, Phantom V Fold. The phone will be the world’s first left-right foldable smartphone to be powered by MediaTek’s flagship Dimensity 9000+ processor. The dual-SIM, dual 5G processor customized especially for the device is produced by an advanced TSMC 4nm manufacturing process and delivers outstandingly smooth foldable device performance with low power consumption.

The phone will also be equipped with an ultra-clear 5-lens photography system, including a 50MP main camera with a super light-sensitive custom sensor, a further two rear lenses, as well as two front lenses. The system creates an exciting photography experience made possible by the phone’s folding design, from enhanced rear-camera selfies to more immersive large-screen video calling.

In addition to being on display at TECNO’s MWC booth, PHANTOM V Fold will also be the only foldable device equipped with the Dimensity 9000+ processor on display at MediaTek’s MWC booth, as part of TECNO’s interactions with its various strategic partners at the exhibition. That is basically all the info that Tecno shared with us thus far. We are also wondering what’s the crease situation like, whether the phone folds flat, is there an IP rating, and what other specs are included… amongst other things.

Tecno & TCL Jointly Develop a Flagship Dual Screen for the Upcoming Phantom V Fold

Anurag — Fri, 24 Feb 2023 13:57:18 +0000

Tecno has confirmed it will be showcasing an interesting and rather new smartphone during the MWC Barcelona 2023. The device in question will be the brand’s first-ever foldable smartphone, Phantom V Fold. While we wait for the formal debut, Tecno has revealed that the upcoming folding phone features an advanced flagship screen developed in collaboration with technology giant TCL CSOT, in a joint laboratory of the two technology brands.

Tecno and TCL CSOT set up a joint lab in July 2022, strengthening their long-standing partnership. The lab aims to drive innovation and meet customer needs, as both brands value research and development. The new flagship display is a result of this collaboration and it is claimed to deliver an outstanding visual experience in both folded and unfolded large-screen setups.

Tecno Phantom V Fold Concept

Tecno says the upcoming Phantom V Fold uses an LTPO dual screen with up to 120Hz refresh rate. In addition, the display will apparently fold “ultra-flat” and have a “virtually crease-free surface to provide immersive and remarkable large-screen visuals”.

Phantom V Fold’s Successor and a Rollable Device Also in Development

Additionally, Tecno confirmed that the successor of the upcoming Phantom V Fold is also in development and it will have even better display capabilities. The next-gen foldable is slated to be released sometime in 2024 with Tecno’s self-developed Pattern 2.0 crease optimization technology that will ensure the crease on the display is almost non-existent.

The phone’s screen layering is said to be approximately 20% thinner and it will use TCL CSOT’s PLP technology to further improve the display.

Notably, Tecno and TCL CSOT have another intriguing large-screen device in development. This said device will be a rollable smartphone with an extendable and retractable screen. Apparently, they’re planning to put a motor in the device that can roll out the screen and make it big without needing to fold it. This means that the screen won’t have any creases and will be really flat.

TECNO PHANTOM V Fold Design & Hinge Revealed in Latest Leaks

Anubhav — Thu, 16 Feb 2023 10:10:00 +0000

Foldable smartphones are becoming more mainstream day by day. The biggest smartphone manufacturers are entering the ring with their foldable devices to tap a market that’s becoming more accessible day by day. TECNO’s premium sub-brand, PHANTOM, is gearing up to launch its own foldable smartphone, the PHANTOM V Fold, at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2023 in Barcelona on February 28. Latest leaks have revealed TECNO Phantom V Fold’s design in all its glory.

Previously in January, TECNO released a teaser, which looked like a concept video for a rollable smartphone. Although the PHANTOM V Fold is expected to be a left-right foldable device, similar features from the concept video may still be implemented in the upcoming smartphone.

Leaks have also revealed that the PHANTOM V Fold will feature a hinge with a reverse snap structure, identical to the concept video. The hinge seems to enhance the phone’s structural stability, while the aerospace-grade materials used in the hinge will ensure that the device remains lightweight and strong.

Furthermore, it seems that the PHANTOM V Fold will feature a circular camera design with three rear lenses, forming part of a 5-lens system. Users can expect to take some fantastic images with ease.

The leaked image showcases the PHANTOM V Fold in black, but speculations state that a second colorway will be available. Furthermore, it seems like the PHANTOM V Fold will be the first left-right foldable smartphone to feature MediaTek‘s flagship Dimensity 9000+ processor, which has shown promise in other smartphones such as Tecno Phantom X2 and Vivo X80.

One thing is for sure – The anticipation for the PHANTOM V Fold is at an all-time, thanks to the leaks surfacing the web. Upon launch, the smartphone will go up against other popular foldable smartphones, such as Huawei Mate X and Oppo Find N2 Flip. The foldable smartphone business is expected to grow by 30% in 2023. The countdown to the official launch of Phantom V Fold is on as consumers wait for more updates from TECNO!

We also get a glimpse of what the operating system onboard the device will look like. Additionally, it also confirms that the cover display houses speakers both on the top and bottom edges. Although it is mere speculation at this point, however, by the looks of the power button, it could double as a fingerprint scanner.

It’s quite an exciting time for the smartphone industry as more and more brands appear to be entering the foldable market. Recently, rumors have emerged that we could soon be seeing foldable smartphones from OnePlus and Apple. On the other hand, early adopters of tech like Samsung, Oppo, Huawei, and Xiaomi are consistently polishing their offerings.

Tecno recently debuted the Phantom Vision V concept foldable smartphone which has a rollable sliding screen. Although there is still quite some time before rollable display smartphones become mainstream, Tecno is working on a traditional foldable smartphone that employs some of the design aspects of the Tecno Phantom Vision V concept.

MySmartPrice has leaked live images of the upcoming foldable smartphone from the brand dubbed the Tecno Phantom V Fold. Additionally, tipster Paras Guglani has informed that the foldable device will launch globally on February 28. The device is also expected to launch in India. Let’s take a look at its design.

The foldable phone is shown to be encased in a protective case in the leaked live images. Although the prototype case conceals the phone’s design, the camera sensor placement is visible.

The back of the Phantom V Fold is equipped with three cameras. The Phantom Vision V foldable phone, which was recently shown off as a concept, shares the same camera sensor design. There is an LED flash module beside the camera lenses.

The Tecno Phantom V Fold features an external display with a hole-punch cutout at the top center, but the size of the display is yet to be disclosed. It is clear that the device is going the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold route, as the display appears to be rather tall, but not that wide.

The image shows the beige-colored hinge of the foldable phone. We can also observe that the device is quite thick, however, it is worth noting that this could be due to the fact that the device has a protective cover on it. Lastly, we can see a speaker grille on the top of the device.

Unfortunately, no further information is available on the smartphone. However, considering that the device is likely to launch on February 28, we could see more details about its specs emerge soon.
