Mobile World Congress shows us the future of phone
At the Mobile World Congress 2017 show taking place this week in Barcelona, the major (and minor) smartphone manufacturers are all competing to show the visiting press and professionals that they have the latest and greatest mobile tech.
This year, vendors are looking at various ways to distinguish their products from the crowd. Screens are becoming brighter, cameras more sophisticated and phone bodies more rugged.
