The most ground-breaking phones announced at Mobile World Congress 2019
Every now and then, the global mobile phone market undergoes a major change. After myriads of iPhone-esque phones that replaced the nostalgic flip phone, it looks like mobile phones are ready to make a shift towards foldable 5G phones.
This year, Samsung, Huawei, Oppo and more raced to announce their first foldable phones at Mobile World Congress 2019. But beyond the hype of these smartphone-tablet hybrids, there were many more innovations on display.
Here are five game-changing phones that caught our eye—and we can't wait to get our hands on them.
1. Samsung Galaxy Fold
The first to debut its 5G foldable smartphone this year, Samsung’s Galaxy Fold was the hot topic earlier this week—though it has since been overshadowed by other smartphone companies vying for a share of the foldable smartphone market. The smartphone boasts a 4.6-inch screen on the outside, opening like a book to reveal a 7.3-inch display, which can run three apps at the same time. It will be one of the most powerful phones out there, though it errs on the bulky side for a gadget on-the-go.
