The latest Mobile World Congress seems to have been the Folding 5Garena and the folding smartphone this year 2019. The first trend is in the hands of operators; The second, on the other hand, determines the capacity of the manufacturers. We could see different proposals -the most representative Huawei Mate X-; However, Nubian has a new idea to take advantage of folding screen technology. Nubia has presented a new folding phone model, Nubia Alpha, with a 4-inch screen that is flexible. Its appearance is made of a wrist watch and it can be used to make calls, as well as sending SMS and measuring the pace of the heart rate, as recently shown in the Mobile World Congress in 2019.
The company calls it "a stand-alone device", which differentiates Nubia Alpha from other models of brands, like a smartwatch, more than a "smartphone". In fact, the device is rounded around the wristband and combines the functions of both products. In this way, this allows the reception and reception of calls, as well as the monitoring of cardiac rhythm. The company announced these devices last year in the IFA, but only determined some of its features, such as a built-in 4G modem, and a camcorder that would make video games. Now, during a Nubian event on MWC 2019, it is announced that Nubia Alphak is equipped with a Snapdragon Wear 2100 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 8GB of memory, 500 mAh of battery and a fast charge. Its charger is connected in a magnetic way.

These intelligent hybrid clocks have a 4-inch screen with a flexible OLED and a 5-megapixel camera that allows you to take pictures and make video clips.
Additionally, these new products have Artificial Intelligence (AA) characteristics, which have a system for voice assist and gestures, and their design allows the assistant to monitor the cardiac rhythm with "health and exercise" functions.
Finally, the new Nubia will have a Bluetooth connection, and the support will also work with the China Unicom eSIM card operator. The company has not yet said when Nubia Alpha will release it, but said it will be available in two colors, in black and gold.
This last color was shown at the Nubian stand at a price of 549 euros.
