Live Coverage: Mobile World Congress 2010 as it unfolds

19 Feb, 2010

That's all folks! The MWC 2010 finally ended yesterday. It was a hectic week full of interesting announcements, exciting new devices and almost no sleep. But thanks to Barcelona for such a warm welcome yet another year.

More than 49,000 visitors from 200 countries attended the 2010 GSMA Mobile World Congress. The event welcomed 1,300 exhibiting companies and occupied more than 56,000 net square meters of exhibition and business meeting space.

Unfortunately, Nokia didn't make a product announcement despite all the rumors. In fact Samsung, of all manufacturers, was the only company to present a ground-breaking mobile phone (a new OS and a new type of display). But even they didn't show anything interesting alongside it.

Anyway, we still found some interesting topics and devices to cover but we leave this year's congress with mixed feelings - mainly due to our high initial expectations.

At least we hope you've enjoyed our coverage.
