The 2018 edition of the Mobile
World Congress (MWC), to be held from February 26-March 1, will focus on
the continued progress of 5G technology.
Around 170
international delegations will also attend an event which will present
new products and discuss the future of the mobile communications
industry, creating 13,000 temporary jobs with an estimated economic
impact of around 471 million euros ($579 million), Xinhua reported.
As
always, the MWC will see many companies presenting new devices, with
Samsung expected to debut its Galaxy S9 and S9+ models, while launches
are also anticipated from Asus, Sony, HMD (Nokia), Lenovo/Moto and TCL
Communications.
Some experts are predicting that the progress
being made in 5G could prove to be a setback for devices and many
potential buyers could be tempted to postpone purchase of a new
smartphone until 2019 when it is expected 5G devices will hit the
high-street.
Topics such as artificial intelligence and the
ethical issues surrounding its application will be debated in the host
of keynote speeches, presentations and panel discussions to be held over
four days in Barcelona.
