Cell Phones
Smartphones and similar technologies were a major theme at the event and the most attention-grabbing devices were strikingly different.
Huawei, which has been at the center of conversation for reasons beyond its products, showed off the Mate X and Samsung also made headlines with its Galaxy S10.

On the other end of the spectrum is the Energizer P18K Pop Android, a thick but long-lasting phone. What it lacks in sleekness it makes up for with a battery that should last five days of normal use and potentially up to 40 days on standby mode.
