Ready for a new smartphone? Discover these 10 smartphones that will be released in 2018. Samsung will probably come with a smartphone that is really foldable, Apple promises to come up with a new smartphone and Huawei will also be heard. Discover the 10 smartphones that will hit the market in 2018.
Rumors have been circulating for some time that Samsung will come up with a foldable smartphone. Although no details have been released yet, the smartphone will probably be called the Samsung Galaxy X. The compact smartphone is built in such a way that it can be unfolded into a tablet. By folding you have two OLED panels at your disposal. DJ Koh, the CEO of Samsung has now confirmed the rumors and also said that this smartphone will be on the market in 2018.
Of course, Apple will also be heard in 2018. It is expected that Apple will upgrade the existing iPhone X to a more extensive model, the iPhone X Plus. The whole setup of the new smartphone would be a lot cheaper. It is expected that the new iPhone will be equipped with an LCD instead of an OLED screen with a size of 6.1 inch and 6.3 inch (Plus version). It could also be that more models/variants of the iPhone will appear in 2018. Unfortunately, you will have to wait until autumn (September 2018).
The 4-inch iPhone SE has of course been on the market since 2016, but remains very popular. This is due in no small part to the fact that the specs match the iPhone 6S. Unfortunately, not much is known about the design and specifications of the new iPhone SE 2. It is suspected that this model will have a 6.01 LCD screen, but without 3D option. It remains to be seen, but as it stands, the new iPhone will be in the shops in the spring.
Sony is also making itself heard this year and will be on the market in 2018 with the Sony Xperia XA2 and the Sony Experia XA2 Ultra. The XA2 gets a 5.2 inch display, fingerprint sensor on the front and a narrower top and bottom. If you really want to enjoy optimally, choose the Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra. Some specs that this phone has anyway:6 inch display, 2nd camera on the front with image stabilizer and flash. This could well be the ultimate selfie smartphone of 2018. The smartphone will be available from February.
The Samsung Galaxy S9 will be an upgrade of the revolutionary design of 2017. Think of a curved Invinity display (as the Samsung Galaxy S8 also has) and a high-end Qualcomm processor, the Snapdragon 845. Just like the Note 8, the smartphone will also be equipped with a dual camera on the back. Samsung has also listened to the complaints of its users and will centralize the fingerprint sensor more for even more ease of use.
LG belongs to the toppers that are always one of the first to come up with a new smartphone. The LG G7 is scheduled to be launched in the spring of 2018. A completely new feature that makes this smartphone different from the competition is the fact that it is equipped with an iris scanner. Rumors are circulating that the LG G7 will also get a Qualcomm 845 processor, as well as an OLED display.
2017 was not a good year for HTC:the design of the HTC U11 can be called downright bad. The design was so outdated that the company was forced to revise very quickly and bring a new device on the market, the HTC U11 Plus. The company has learned its lesson and will come up with a different concept. Although little is known about the new device, it will probably have the following specs:full screen display, 4K display, dual camera and wireless charging.
In 2017, Motorola already made it clear that you can never bring too many mid-range smartphones on the market. The public was surprised by the release of the Moto G5, G5 Plus, Moto G5S and G5S Plus. What to expect from Motorola/Lenovo in 2018? Look out for the Moto G6, Moto G6 Play and Moto G6 Plus. Devices with improvements applied and hopefully an upgrade from Snapdragon 630 to Qualcomm's 363.
If you are really looking for a high-end smartphone, then wait for the Red Hydragon One. This phone is released by the American camera manufacturer Red. Some notable features, in addition to the very hefty price (above $1195), are:holographic screen with 3D capability, virtual and augmented reality without an additional headset and of course a lot of modules to improve photography and video. The devices are expected to be available sometime in the summer of 2018.
Nokia has gone down the right path and has impressed many. Also this year, the Finns will build on the previous success and come onto the market with a number of new devices. Among the 10 smartphones that will be launched in 2018 are the Nokia 1, Nokia 2, Nokia 4, Nokia 6 and Nokia 7. In addition, the Nokia 7 Plus and Nokia 9 will also be on the market.
