hey Joshua Vergara what's going on everybody and we're here to take a look at the best products at Mobile World Congress here in Barcelona Spain MWC 2018 was an incredible show and we want to show you what we thought took top honors here at Mobile World Congress you know what we should just start off with the big one the Samsung Galaxy S 9 yes I have an S 9 plus in my hand right now but there are a lot of reasons why this phone gets one of the top honors it comes with a dual camera on the s9 plus along with dual aperture in the main cameras for either of the phones now that mechanical iris is an incredible feature something that we see in DSLRs but now it's something we see unsmoked of course it comes with all of the same enhancements you would expect from a flagship along with a brand new feature a R emoji which is a new way for you to express yourself back at CES we did take a look at a concept phone from vivo that put a fingerprint sensor underneath the screen we took a look at that phone again here at MWC but it had more tricks up its sleeve including a pop up camera that is used to make the bezel as minimal as possible but still have a front-facing camera for your selfies this particular phone is a wonderful concept and we can't wait to actually see a put into future phones especially from vivo the Alcatel One X the Nokia one and the ZTE tempo go while we're not really giving an award to any one of these devices but the whole line of them in Android go Android go provides an apparatus of Android or EO that is incredibly lightweight on phones that are maybe $100 or less what this proves is that it's possible to have all the same security features and all of the same general features in a cheap smartphone without having to pay an arm in the leg and that's why we give Android go one of our awards you might not have heard the name Nokia in awhile but they're definitely back and they're trying to be a major player in the Android space with the Nokia 8 Sirocco they have their best foot forward all of the major specifications you'll want are here but also a dual camera setup with a wide-angle the glass on glass design looks great and underneath the surface you get Android one the most stock like version of Android you can possibly get we actually think that the Nokia eight kind of looks like Nokia's play on the Nexus program so that's one of the reasons why it's incredibly exciting for us for any fans out there of truly wireless earbuds like myself this one might be incredibly important for you Qualcomm has added to their qcc 5100 chipset Qualcomm true Wireless Stereo technology now typically true wireless earbuds require one of them to receive the signal from the phone and then transmit it over to the other earbud with some delays happening from time to time it's probably something you're familiar with but this time both of the earbuds will be able to receive information from the chipset so that they can share the work and then of course you have left and right stereo quality machine learning and AI features that you might be seeing in phones that get close to $1,000 in the price don't necessarily have to be a thing of the future the Helio p 60 by mediatek is trying to bring a lot of those features into phones that would end up being priced around $500 or less that's an exciting prospect and if AI is going to move forward it has to be ubiquitous this is one way to do this one might seem like it comes out of left field but the cat s60 one definitely impressed us it still has the same thermal camera from last year along with a number of other tools for those of you who need to use it in let's say construction situations like for example plotting the distance between two points using lasers on the phone now there's one thing about the cat s61 that we have to mention it's using Android Oreo 8.1 out of the box even the Samsung Galaxy S 9 can't say that a seuss is not pulling any punches or in this case any notches with the zenfone 5 Z now there is a notch at the top where all of the front-facing bits are but this has a 19 by 9 aspect ratio screen where one of the 19 is used primarily for notifications that's kind of cool of kind of clever way of making a notch for an Android phone but you get a lot of different specifications on top of that including the snapdragon 845 great amounts of storage great amounts of RAM and all of the power that you would want from a phone that is priced under $500 and that's really what makes us so excited about this phone don't worry about all of the AEI stuff that they're talking about the fact that this is a sub 500 euro phone you want to look at and so there you have it all of our top honors for Mobile World Congress 2018 here in Barcelona Spain thank you so much for
