The Smartphone market is growing competitive and this is not because China is the most active player, but because the less operating systems volume influences manufactures’s production turbines
Since we have kissed 2020 with teasers from major manufacturers ahead of this year’s consumer electronics show (CES), it’s about time we see what these manufacturers have lined up for the year’s 1st quarter month.
After Samsung paving way for its LITE Smartphone releases earlier this month, mid-range players like Xiaomi, Honor, Oppo and TECNO Mobile never miss such flights granting them bullish spikes for releases in the course of the year.
Well, here are some of the best Smartphones you should expect to see on a launch pad this January before the 2020 manufacturers race is actively flagged off

Samsung is the first manufacturer to launch new releases in 2020 after successfully placing its S10 LITE and Galaxy Note 10 LITE on launch pads. The Pair was launched on January 4th and it’s dressed in close to mid-range budget attire but with full high-end functionality
The Samsung Galaxy S10 LITE comes with slightly a lower specifications sheet compared to its the base Galaxy S10, as the Note 10 LITE is also also borrows the same style away from the base Galaxy Note 10,
Even though both the LITE and base releases don’t differ much when it comes to the design and display support, the Retail price of the two versions always creates a support margin between the mid-range and high-end tiers
