In a few days one of the most anticipated events of the year for technology fans will begin in Barcelona and it is time to prepare for the great news we hope to meet him in tablets and phablets, which are going to be quite a few. We review the most anticipated debuts of the MWC 2018.
Huawei
As far as tablets are concerned, Huawei Right now it has all the ballots to be the brand that leaves us more news of interest and that is that we could meet up to 4 new models in Barcelona, including a few Android and some Windows. We already warned you recently that, in fact, depending on the type of device we are looking for, it may be preferable to wait a little to see what they present to us.
On the one hand, we have the MediaPad M5, which we have been hearing about for quite a few weeks and it seems logical to expect it to debut at the MWC. We may be surprised, but it seems that we know practically everything about it: 8.4 inches, Quad HD resolution, Kirin 960 processor, 4 GB of RAM and Android Oreo. The most interesting thing is that, according to a leak that leaves us even at pricesIt could be accompanied by a 10-inch model and another of the same size but with some extras (at least more storage and stylus support).
From China we got a teaser, however, that it invited to think that the stars of the event could not really be the MediaPads but the Matebook, since they showed us the silhouette of a tablet with keyboard. They may have decided to launch new models with 835th generation Intel Core processors, although it does not seem unreasonable to imagine that it is a new model with a Snapdragon 10 processor and Windows XNUMX for ARM. It is strange, in any case, that there have not been more details about this other tablet, so it cannot be ruled out that it stays at nothing.
Samsung
The other manufacturer to be very attentive in Barcelona is Samsung, since at least we have guaranteed nothing less than the new Galaxy S9. Also in this case a good part of the cake has already been discovered, although surely the Koreans have some interesting trick up their sleeve: with the help of one last leak This very morning, it seems that the main technical specifications have been confirmed and even prices have been discovered.
Is it possible that we will also see a Samsung tablet at MWC 2018? It is far from being a safe bet, but it is true that if there is a manufacturer that can give us a joy in this sense apart from Huawei, it would be the Korean and it must be remembered that this morning the first records of what would be the Galaxy Tab S4 and that its predecessor saw the light in Barcelona. The normal thing would be that we had heard of it before and few tablets are renewed with only one year.
It's not the only Samsung tablet we've heard of lately, if at all, as Koreans are also known to work on new Galaxy Tab A and there have been rumors of a 2 in 1 in the style of the Galaxy Book but with Chrome OS. The problem is the same as with the Galaxy Tab S4: taking into account with the attention that each movement of Samsung, it is hard to believe that any device can reach the MWC with so much secrecy regarding its preparation.
Sony, LG, Nokia, Xiaomi and more
We have focused on the two manufacturers that could give us good news when it comes to tablets, but the MWC It is an appointment that no one wants to miss and all the greats will take advantage of it to present us with new mobiles or versions of their stars, and many of the most interesting will be phablets, as seeing as being the usual thing.
So much Sonyas LG, Nokia y Xiaomi They will be at the MWC although not all of us know with the same precision what we can expect to be presented: from the Japanese we expect new high-end mobiles that may abandon the traditional design of the brand and make the leap to the new fashion of the fronts without frames; We Koreans know that he reserves his most powerful weapons for later and that we will only have versions of his latest high-end phablet; The Finns seem to be able to present us with an Android One that has already fallen in love with many; and the Chinese, to finish, it is believed that they will introduce us to the successor of the Mi Mix 2, with a Snapdragon 845.
Of course, we must not forget that many pass through Barcelona too other manufacturers that it will be difficult to steal the limelight from the stars but precisely because they are not so popular they always take advantage of this type of window to present their best devices, which often end up making a gap among the most interesting novelties, and surely there will be tablets among them . We will be attentive to them as well.
