another mwc has come and gone we've seen some great phones and we've gotten a taste about the kinds of phones that we're going to see in 2017 now one of the big trends we've seen is comebacks here mwc we've had both blackberry coming in with its high-end key one phone with a physical keyboard and then we've got nakia in on the low end with a raft of affordable phones including an old familiar name the Nokia 3310 isn't even a smartphone it's a feature phone and it's not going to work most places in the world it's 2g and yet this was one of the most exciting things it really was but we have had some really exciting high-end stuff as well with LG of course of the g6 I'm Jess what's so special about that well it's got a two to one screen ratio and basically there's more screen to the display thin bezels that's something that we're also going to see this year and the folks that's really well in your hand it's pretty narrow yeah and it looks good as well i think but and then later on this year we've got a few companies coming that we haven't seen yet NBC that's true HTC is probably going to release a flagship phone and also the big elephant in the room was Samsung which wasn't here at the show but the company did use the opportunity to announce its launch event for the upcoming Galaxy S 8 flagship which is going to take place in late March now one of the other big themes of the show is that of 5g now 5g isn't just about getting faster speeds your mobile phones it's also about connecting everything around you from smart light bulbs through to autonomous cars apparently this is going to change the way we interact with technology but it isn't going to be with us for the next few years that's disappointing but that means that there's a lot of exciting stuff that's going to take place in 2017 and this is just the beginning
