The ITmedia Mobile Weekly Top 10 this time compiled the accesses from October 8th to October 14th, 2018 and ranked them.

"Card mobile phone KY-01L", which is attracting attention in various ways

On October 17, NTT Docomo held a new product launch for the winter 2018 to spring 2019 sales season, and it was ranked high in access. 6 out of 10 articles are related to DoCoMo's new products. Among them, Kyocera's "Card Keitai KY-01L" seems to have attracted a lot of attention, and the first place hands-on article and the second place announcement bulletin article were extremely accessed.

KY-01L is currently the world's thinnest and lightest LTE (4G) mobile phone. There are many points of interest (maniac), such as being the first DoCoMo brand mobile phone made by Kyocera in about 20 years (reference link) and the fact that it is equipped with electronic paper.

In addition to this model, articles on terminals with main call functions such as au's "INFOBAR xv" and the future model "NichePhone-S 4G" tend to be read well these days. Come to think of it, in the previous ranking, an article like "I want to stop using my smartphone" was in second place.

Smartphones are getting bigger and more functions. As a result of this “reaction,” people may have come to seek simple phone terminals.

"HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro"

, which started selling in the European area

In eighth place in the ranking, Huawei's new smartphones "HUAWEI Mate 20", "HUAWEI Mate 20 X" and "HUAWEI Mate 20 Pro" presentation report The first part of has entered.

The presentation of the three models was held in London, England. When I was there to cover the event, I was impressed by the gathering of media representatives from all over the world, and the fact that people from carriers and mass retailers, mainly from Europe, were also invited.

There were many exciting scenes at the presentation, but the most exciting was the introduction of the "reverse charge" function that can supply power to Qi-compatible devices. If you want to know why it got all the hype, be sure to check out the official YouTube Live archive (starting with the battery life presentation).

For the Mate 20 Pro, we plan to post a review article on the actual machine at a later date. looking forward to!
