This is never old-MWC Week brings a concentration of new projections, big strategy declarations and all kinds of cutting edge concepts that can show the way of the future or never be seen again.
We were always in Barcelona and launched – and new devices – first experience. Here we will summarize all that happened this week.
By the way, the results of the MWC 2025 awards were announced a few days ago. Google took Best Smartphone (Pixel 9 Pro) and Breakthrough Device Innovation (for its Gemini AI). Ziomi created the Best in Show Award (Ziomi 15 Ultra), while Techno caught the best connected consumer device award (Techno Mega Mini Gaming G1).

Apple
Well, so Apple Pal was not in the MWC, but this announcement was done this week and it is very important to miss. The company unveiled the new high-final pieces of Silicon, M4 Max and M3 Ultra Chips, which can be found within the Stud C Studio-the most powerful Mac created on the date of date (no word on the new Mac Pro). As it turns out, the M3 Ultra is just a slight faster than the M4 Max.
New tablets are probably more relevant to most of our readers, but they have no new silicone. The iPad (2025) uses the 16 chip, so it misses on Apple Pal Intelligence (the new iPad mini received the A117 Pro, which AI can do). This is the only new iPad without AI support, a fantastic split move by Apple Pal.
Apple Pal iPad (2025) • iPad Air (2025) • m b kabuk air (M4) • Mac Studio
Apple Pale upgraded the iPad Air to M2 chips last year, now it is turning to M3 models instead. And it’s the only upgrade – unless you count the updated magic keyboard with a row of large trackpad and function keys.
When the iPad Air missed with the M4 chip, the new mb Bbuk Air (13 “and 15”) was not. They are twice as fast as the old M1 powered air and support two external displays.
Tricky
Dugie had a busy week with six new phones, including pure 70 and 70 Pro-the first phone of the brand with a quad-turned display. There was also a 22,000 mAh battery and camping light, plus thin (by duggy standards) 10.5 mm blade with Dugi V Max Play with GT Ultra. Dugie M60 revives an interesting concept-a smartphone with a built-in projector (854 x 480px, 76 ANSI lumens).

The company also launched a series of two LTE-connected tablets and entry-level smartwatches.
Hor
HMD focuses on small fans with Fusion X1, with Explora pre -installed parental control. The phone itself is a beautiful standard entry-level device, but there is also a Barca Fusion Special Version for Footb.
HMD Fusion X1 and Barka Fusion
Since the deal to use the Nokia brand is over, HMD re -launched many feature phones under its own brand, plus 3210 special edition, even after FC Barcelona.
Honor
Honor unveiled his first ultra clock, which is also his first with the ECG. In addition, he began opening the Honor Pad V9 and earbuds globally.
Honor Watch 5 Ultra • Honor Pad V9 • Honor Earbuds Open
Honor announced that all magical devices will get seven -year OS updates. Emphasizing “years”, it is not clear how many real updates mean.
The company is focusing on AI with a $ 10 billion plan to develop a large ecosystem of AI devices. This is called the Honor Alpha Plan – you can read a little more about it here.
Fascination
Infinix Note 50 series brought to Barcelona. There are 4G-only models with 4.78 “OLED displays and 144 Hz refresh rate and 5,200 mAh batteries and one type of magnetic charging.
Infinix Note 50 • Infinix Note 50 Pro • Infinix Zero Mini Concept
The company is experimenting with Tri-Fold devices, but moving in other ways other than competition-Infinix Zero Mini Concept is a flip-style tri-fold device, making it very small when completely closed. It is an interesting idea with potential, for example, can be used as an action camera.
Mezu
Someone pulled a photo of the Mizu 22 Pro on the MWC grounds and later the company confirmed that this would actually be called “Mizu 20” and will begin in April.
Mizu 21 Pro and Mizu 22 • Mizu Note 22 • MBLU 22 • MBLU 22 Pro
Talking about the really announced phones in MWC, the company launched the Note 22, MBLU 22 and MBLU 22 Pro.
Statement
Unlike last year, nothing was really present in MWC this time and brought it with its first phone telephoto camera, nor None phone (3A) and (3A) Pro. The latter is also the first with the Periscope (50 MP3x), while the vanilla model has only received a regular tally lens (50 MP2x).
None Phone (3A) Pro and Phone (3A)
We have published a very detailed hand -handed review for both phones, but we also have any phone (3A) Pro in Office Fissure so are expected to be a full review soon.
Form
Nubia launched sequences of budget gaming phones, plus its flip foldable and budget camera phones in the focus series. Neo 3 Gaming Phones are powered by Unisok Chipsets (T8300 for TEO 3 and T9100 for NEO 3GT).
Nubia Neo 3 and Nubia Neo 3 gt
Nubia Flip 2 is intended to be one of the cheapest flip phones, starting at € 700 for the 8/128 GB model. The Nubia Focus 2 is loaded with a 108MP camera and there is an ultra version with a large 1/1.55 ”sensor, though the details of the two are still very rare.
Field
After launching China and India, Realme 14 Pro and 14 Pro+ are now at € 430 and € 530 in Europe, respectively. We already reviewed Pro+, but this was our first encounter with Realm 14 Pro, so check our hand-on for more details.
Realm 14 Pro+ • Realmi 14 Pro • Realmi 14 Pro Light • Interchangeable Lens Concept
In addition, the company unveiled a new device, Realm 14 Pro Light. Yes, Pro Light. It is as difficult as the other two (IP69, Mill -STD -810H), but it carries low price tags and has been dialed back to its hardware.
Realm showed a nice Concept Next phone with an interchangeable lens and we found two available lenses: 73 mm (around 3X) and 230 mm (10x) joined to a 1 inch sensor. Ziomi had separated on the interchangeable lens, don’t even miss it.
Samsung
Samsung’s focus was on the A-Series, with the Galaxy A56, A36 and A26. All three now promise 6 OS updates, which is better than many flagships. Also, US fans will actually buy A56 this year. The A56 and A36 also started in India.
Samsung Galaxy A56 • Galaxy A36 • Galaxy A26
Meanwhile, Samsung announced that a UI 7 beta will come out for a number of devices this month, a stable one UI 7 is expected in April. Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 got an UI 7 beta this week in selection markets.
TCL
TCL unveiled two 60-seashore phones and detailed the NXT Paper 11 plus tablet on MWC. Phones are a pair of entry-level 5G devices, while the tablet improves the visual clarity while maintaining 100% SRGB coverage.

Tinger
Techno has been on AI-band (like many other companies) and kicked things with smart-gloss with a built-in AI assistant. In the phone news, Techno launched the Camon 40 series with new laptops, watches and buds. Check out our techno cum 40 series with hand for more details on the phone.
Smart Glasses • Camon 40 Series • Megabook S 14 • Spark Slim Concept
Techno Megabook S14 is a lightweight (899 g/1.98 lbs) 14 “laptop, the first with the Snapdragon X Elite Chip or Intel Core Ultra 5 or 7 processors with the OLED display (120 Hz). Interestingly, NVIDI is alternative to GP.
Both Samsung and Apple Pal are working on slim phones and they are. We conducted a techno spark slim concept device, which measures only 75.7575 mm thick, despite a very large 5,200mAh battery.
The company also showed a 2MP spectravision camera that will help other cameras adjusting color rendering.
Consecration
The Ulephone had three rugged phones to show. The Utophone Armor 34 Pro is a beast with 25,500mAh batteries, built-in mobile projector (150 lumens) and 1,200 lumen flashlights. Armor 33 Pro went into the other direction and is equipped with 3.4 “LCD and 118 dB speakers in the back.
Ulephone Armor 34 Pro • Armor 33 Pro • Armor Mini 4
The Ulephone Armor Mini 4 is not what you think – it’s a rugged feature phone. We don’t see a lot of it. It has a 2,100mAh battery and hands-free FM radio.
Ziomi
Xiaomi used the MWC stage to launch the Ziomi 15 and 15 Ultra globally. Camera Mera on Ultra is already influenced by our review. We also reviewed the small Xiomi 15, which is a repeated upgrade.
Ziomi 15 Ultra • Ziomi 15 • Ziomi Modular OPT Putical System Concept
Ziomi is dipping with removable lenses, but the Ziomi modular OPT pattal system is not concept-instead, it is like Sony’s old lens-style camera. A phone (based on the Xiaomi 15) uses a pogo pin to control and power the mostly self-contained camera system from its own lens and sensor. Specifically, the device features a 100MP Light Fusion X Micro for Third Sensor (larger than 1 inch sensor in a flagship phone) and 35mm lenses with variable hole (F/1.4 to F/11) plus manual focus ring.
Mistreatment
The UTS Shop Telecom showed an AI phone operated by Parlexity AI. It is set to launch in the Key European markets in 2026. Instead of Android, this runs a custom Magenta AI operating pelting system and uses a parable accessory instead of a traditional application-based user interface.
