The 2025 Mobile Congress is underway in Barcelona, ​​Spain, and while there are still two days left, the mobile -centered show has already provided many new laptops, smartphones, concepts and innovative equipment.

Many of the most innovative devices that make their MWC debut are concepts that one day can make their way into the hands of consumers. The Samsung screen group demonstrated several different prototypes, including an asymmetrical Z-Flip-style phone that folds in two places leaving its visible screen, and a larger folding screen hidden inside a bag. His most interesting concept was a hand keyboard Nintendo Switch with a hinge in the middle allowing it to be folded in half for improved transportation.

The concept of Thinkbook Flip uses the same flexible OLED screen as Lenovo’s Thinkbook Plus Gen 6 that is expected to reach since June 2025 and start with $ 3,499. But instead of the screen extending from below the laptop keyboard to increase the real estate of the screen, in the thinkbook rolling is static and created to fold back. This will potentially allow the flip to be used as a more traditional 13.1 -inch laptop, as a 12.9 -inch tablet, or as a laptop with an abnormally tall 18.1 -inch screen. The lack of a motorized mechanism can also make the thinbbook rolling cheaper if you ever look at the light of the day.

After the start of Xiaomi 15 ultra in China, the company announced a UK and European launch of its latest flag phone at about $ 1,600, though there is no word in a US departure. Although some may find the fourfold Ultra-S rear camera with an asymmetrical ugly lens layout, the phone contains a new 4.3x periscope lens paired with a 200 megapixel 1/1.4-inch sensor with improved low light performance that left us fully impressed in our review.

Anyone who can remember to get engaged to the original wheel of the iPod movement will evaluate a specific feature on the Ultra Nubia Focus 2. Surrounding the camera at the back of the phone is a rotating physical phone – similar to the calls in DSLR and the mirror -free lenses – which can be used to adjust the scoop. There is no word if the call can be used with other smartphone apps, but using it as a small wheel would be a satisfactory way to play racing games.

What if you didn’t have the concern about your laptop’s battery life as long as the sun was shining? This is the idea that stands behind the concept of Lenovo’s PC solar pc that presents 84 solar cells integrated into the laptop lid. When positioned in direct sunlight for 20 minutes, the solar panel of the laptop will generate enough electricity for one hour of video reproduction. The company says it is still evaluating energy production under other lighting conditions, but solar charging capabilities can still be a welcome return for the time when an energy outlet is not available.

Transitiveness is a restrictive factor when it comes to how good smartphone photo can get. To create a mobile device that offers photo skills closer to what you can get from camera -free cameras, Xiaomi is reviving an old Sony idea with magnetic lens attachments. The concept of the company’s modular system uses lenses that are actually self-contained cameras with larger sensors than you will find on any smartphone. The captured images are processed by phone, the lenses are attached, so they are immediately available to separate, and while a smartphone with a giant back -hanging lens can be a little difficult to use, temporary access means that the phone holds its thin factor of the rest of the time.

Lenovo was not the only company in MWC, lighting the sun for inspiration. Chinese phone brand Infinix demonstrated a concept smartphone on show with a solar panel integrated on the back. Using Perovskit’s most efficient solar cells as companies such as anchor will, Infinix says its sun storage technology can charge a phone at speeds of up to 2W under optimal lighting conditions, although leaving your smartphone in the sun for several hours will not help overload.

What separates AMPED HMD loops from other wireless ears are not their Anc or IP54 spray resistance. Their charging case containing a 1,600mAh battery that can keep the buds operate for 95 hours impressive before the issue needs high power. But if you have a smartphone dying at an inopportune time, the issue of loading AMPED buds can also be used to return wireless load for qi2 compatible mobile devices. This is not enough power enough to fully replenish a smartphone, but when these start in April 2025 for about $ 206, it may be enough for an incentive for several extra hours of use.

After a number of official leaks and harassment from the company, nothing officially announced its 3A and 3A Pro phones in MWC. Both show 6.77 inches screens, Android 15 and Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipsets paired with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB storage. 3a Pro, which starts at $ 459, contains a Telofoto Periscope 3x lens while the magnification capabilities of $ 379 are limited to 2x. They are both well -fitted medium -fired phones, but they are distinguished by the introduction of a new feature nothing calls the essential space he uses to extract and store useful information from photos, sound memo and photos.

Imagine a pair of wireless ears that do not lose their connection when you wander too far from your smartphone or your computer. Xiaomi’s New Buds 5 Pro are the first ears of ears presenting the Qualcomm chip S7, first announced in October 2023, which can transmit the audio to a much higher gang over Wi-Fi. Your wireless connection will remain strong as long as you are inside your Wi-Fi network interval, but the loops may fall back into a standard Bluetooth connection when Wi-Fi is not available. Buds 5 pro are now available for $ 240, but at the start they are only compatible with intelligent Xiaomi 15 and 15 ultra phones.

The Galaxy S25 Edge that Samsung was overwhelmed at her packaged event earlier this year already has exquisite competition. The thin concept of the spark of the tecno masses at 5.75 mm thick with a 5,200mAh battery – larger than that included in the Ultra Galaxy S25 – while the Edge Galaxy S25 is rumored to be 6.4 mm thick. We still do not know when the Galaxy S25 will begin, but it will surely be much faster than this concept after Tecno has not announced any plans to put Spark slim in production.

Can’t worry about unlocking your phone and checking a weather app to see which temperature is? Realme 14 pro and 14 pro plus are available with a white pearl finish that presents thermochromic pigments that vary from white to blue when exposed to temperatures below 61 degrees Fahrenheit. Not as accurate as a thermometer, but at least you will know if you need to catch a light jacket. The phones first started in India in January, but are now coming to Europe at a price price starting at about $ 450.

Fad 3D may have passed, but Lenovo has not completely given up yet. The concept of the 3D company’s thinkbook laptop uses a combination of steering and tracking the user’s head to simultaneously display 2D and 3D content on the screen without the need for any particular glasses. Lenovo also created an accompanying ring concept that allows users to navigate and interact with 3D content using gesture -based spatial controls as the track and computer rats are limited to only two dimensions.
