2019 has been a rough year for Huawei, but it still has a huge market in China, and managed to persevere and expand its business in other regions of the globe, despite the US trade ban. Huawei’s upcoming P40 and P40 Pro is set to launch in Paris in March. Some specifications of these new handsets have been confirmed. It will run run the Android 10-based EMUI 10 coupled with Huawei Mobile Services, with no Google Services available. It will likely have a penta-lens Leica camera.

Motorola Razr

At CES 2020, Lenovo confirmed it may debut a 5G model of the foldable Razr phone in the Chinese market at the end of Q2 2020. The new Razr phone is nearly identical to the classic model of 2004 with the same name. When unfolded, the Razr has a 6.2-inch display, slim at 6.9mm thin, about the thickness of an old iPhone 6. When folded, it’s thicker at 14 mm, but the Razr is still thinner than Samsung’s Galaxy Fold.

iPhone SE 2 (iPhone 9)

The iPhone SE 2, a palm size and budget-friendly successor to the iPhone SE, has long been rumored and expected. Recently the famous OnLeaks has revealed some renders and videos of the anticipated cheaper iPhone, which is an iPhone 8-like design. That means a 4.7-inch display surrounded by thick top and bottom bezels, a Touch ID fingerprint sensor, as well as a single rear camera.

In addition to the rumored SE2, the new iPhone 12 and 5G iPhones are coming in 2020.
