Mobile World Congress 2017 will be held in Barcelona on February 26th. It is organized by GSM Association, and it is going to last five days. The event will be packed with new smartphones, tablets, wearables, networking gear, and app developers from big and small phone companies. Most of the products are intended to launch over the next few months.

According to Live Mint, the most surprising phone release this year is no other than Nokia 6. The brand will be making a comeback with its new release, and where better to show it off than at the MWC 2017. Nokia 6 is not designed by the Finnish mobile maker. Instead, it is going to be designed, manufactured, and sold by a Chinese company HMD Global. It offers 5.5-inch full HD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 processor with 4GB RAM, and it will run on Android 6.0

Moto G5 is another phone to look out for. Manufactured by Lenovo, the phone will come in two variants with different screen sizes. According to images released by Lenovo, the phones will have full metal finish with a unibody design. The phones are equipped with a fingerprint sensor on the front, and a single camera with dual screen tone flash on the back. The smaller phone is rumored to run on Snapdragon 430, while the bigger one on Snapdragon 625.

News Nation adds BlackBerry Mercury as a phone to look out for. The phone is packing the memorable physical QWERTY keyboard. The phone will be made by the Chinese company TLC. It comes with 4.5-inch display and will be running Android Nougat. The phone is rumored to run on Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor. Huawei is also showcasing the Honor 9 at MWC this year. The name is still not confirmed yet. It might be called Honor 9 or Honor 8 Pro.

The phone will have 5.7-inch quad HD screen, and it will be powered by Honor’s own Kirin chipset with at least 6GB RAM and 128GB Internal Storage. LG G6 might be the first phone to be launched with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor. According to the photos released by the company, the phone is likely to have an edge-to-edge display with very thin bezels.
