Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus

The showstopper of the whole event has undoubtedly been Samsung Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus. The two phones are not only powerful but also have stunning displays and cameras. While they look a lot like their predecessors, they are much more packed with innovative features than any of their predecessors have been. With this phone, Samsung has shifted the fingerprint sensor down below the camera (which is one of the many factors that differentiate it from Samsung Galaxy S8). The pleasing curves and the Infinity display present in Samsung Galaxy S8 have been preserved in both S9 and S9 Plus.

Compared to Galaxy S8 Plus, S9 Plus comes with a much powerful Snapdragon 845 processor. It also has 2GB more RAM than S8 Plus did; hence the performance isn’t compromised even a bit.
The camera is one of the most versatile and powerful cameras that have ever been seen on a smartphone. You can have bright shots even in low light with the help of its huge f/1.5 aperture. As an icing on the cake, you can even enjoy the blurred background bokeh effect which is much in demand in the market. Like shooting slow motion videos? Go super slow at 960 frames per second with its camera!

Nokia 8 Sirocco

Nokia is back in the smartphone business, and this time they mean business. Nokia 8 Sirocco is refreshingly different when compared with the rest of the mobile phones available in the market in terms of looks. The company has had a long history of bringing innovation to the mobile industry. Nokia 8 Sirocco is unique in design, camera, and build material.

The phone is pretty thin, even more than iPhone X is (Nokia 8 Sirocco is just 7.5mm thin), with a stainless steel frame (much tougher than aluminum which is used in most smartphones). Nokia 8 Sirocco is 5.5-inch and hence fits perfectly in your pocket.

Nokia 8 Sirocco sports a dual-camera system with Zeiss lens which gives you the unique ability to click a bothie (clicking an image using both front and rear camera). The camera app itself allows you to live stream to Facebook and YouTube, whichever you prefer.The Snapdragon 835 process that powers the phones is supplemented by 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage space.

Nokia 8110

Nokia brought the classic feature phone 8110 back to the daily hustle with the latest version of the “banana phone.” It runs on Kai OS which is a mobile OS based on Firefox OS. The phone is powered by a Qualcomm 205 chipset and has 512MB RAM and 4GB of storage space. While these specifications would look subpar for a smartphone, for a feature phone, these specifications are top of the line specifications.

The phone sports a 1500mAh battery which is more than enough for keeping it into use for days without worrying about charging the phone’s battery. Nokia 8110 comes with a 2MP rear camera with LED flash. What’s truly remarkable about the phone is the fact that it supports two sims; that’s right, it has a dual-SIM setup with 4G VoLTE network support. To make the deal even more lucrative, the phone is priced at just $91.

Mobile World Congress has lived up to the expectations it has set over the years, and we totally loved the event. What were your favorite gadgets/announcements in the event? Let us know in the comments below!

Fernando Alonso Talked About Technology in Racing

McLaren has been proactively simulating the racing experience to test cars and drivers and to improve their performance in the races. On the second day of the Mobile World Congress 2018, Fernando Alonso spoke about how he feels about all of the changes McLaren is bringing in terms of technology as well as the switch from Honda to Renault. According to Fernando, data is crucial and is abundantly available in the world of car racing. Every car on the racing track gives away a lot of data which is then worked upon to make the cars safer and more efficient. From steering wheel inputs to throttle inputs and brake pressure inputs, everything is monitored in real-time and the information about the same is provided to the drivers on the track. This helps the drivers to improve their efficiency. The data is also sent to Woking where a team of experts analyzes the data to make the cars and drivers better.
McLaren has recently partnered with Airgain which has helped them in transferring the data as well as the processed information as quickly as possible. We have high hopes for both the partnerships as they would lead to more advancements in the mobility industry. A technology perfected on race tracks can help in a lot of industries.

Sony Introduced an Array of New Products

After quite a long while, it seems like Sony is putting in efforts to stay afloat in the smartphone market. For quite some time, it seemed as if Sony had lost all hopes to regain its position in the market but with the new announcements at MWC 2018, Sony seems to have plans for getting right back up.
Sony announced Xperia Ear Duo which is a product I’m honestly excited a lot about. A few months ago, I was wondering if there was a solution which could allow bike riders to listen to audiobooks while traveling to offices, and I came across no efficient and safe solution. This, however, seems like the perfect product for such needs. Sony Xperia Ear Duo provides a dual listening experience wherein you can listen to music (or audiobooks) while listening to the sounds of your surroundings. The smart earbuds recognize the time, location and activities all the time to provide you with personalized information all the while.
Coming to the next best announcement by Sony, XZ2 and XZ2 Compact. Both the phones sport an HDR display, a 19MP rear camera and a 5MP front camera. XZ2 comes with a Dynamic Vibration System, allowing the phone to vibrate in sync with music, movies, and games providing you with a truly unique entertainment experience wherein you can quite literally feel what you view. The company brought the X-reality technology, introduced in Sony Bravia, to the XZ series. Through this technology, SDR content would be automatically converted into HDR. My favorite feature of the XZ series, though, is the 3D creator which can convert your selfies into their 3D counterparts.

The ‘drone taxi,’ eHang 184 Stunned Visitors

As eHang puts, it,

“Ehang 184 AAV is the safest,Smartest and Eco-Friendly low altitude autonomous aerial vehicle, aiming on providing Medium-Short Distance communication and transportation solution”

The eHang 184 AAV left the viewers in awe when it was presented to them in the MWC 2018. The AAV uses 4G powered IoT Radio Positioning System (RPS) and is powered solely by electricity. But how does one fly it? Using a mobile app. Yes, that’s all it takes. All you need to do is select the locations you wish to go to and tell the app to take-off and land when needed.

Nokia has brought yet another iconic feature phone back to life with the new Nokia 8110 “banana phone” which features a sliding keymat with a T9 keypad having navigation buttons. Nokia 8110 runs on Kai OS (based on Firefox OS), and sports a Qualcomm 205 chipset with a 512MB RAM and 4GB onboard storage.
