For example, 5G could be added to TVs to enable better content streaming and cloud gaming experiences.<\/p>\n<p>The company still aims to release a foldable device [3] in 2020 and currently has around three dozen flexible display products in some stage of development, Gerdon added. However, he said it isn\u2019t going to rush a half-baked product out, and hinted the launch of a foldables developer programme could precede the release of a final consumer device.<\/p>\n[1] https:\/\/www.mobileworldlive.com\/featured-content\/home-banner\/qualcomm-brings-5g-to-lower-tier-processors\/<br \/>\n[2] https:\/\/www.mobileworldlive.com\/devices\/news-devices\/tcl-committed-to-alcatel-blackberry-as-own-brand-plex-launches\/<br \/>\n[3] https:\/\/www.mobileworldlive.com\/devices\/news-devices\/tcl-teases-foldable-future\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LIVE FROM CES 2020, LAS VEGAS: TCL Communication stepped out with its first 5G smartphone &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobileworldlive.com\/featured-content\/top-three\/tcl-leads-new-own-brand-flagships-with-5g\/\">TCL leads new own-brand flagships with 5G<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobileworldlive.com\/\">Mobile World Live<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/2020\/01\/07\/tcl-leads-new-own-brand-flagships-with-5g\/\">\u95b1\u8b80\u5168\u6587 <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"slim_seo":[],"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[6484,5029,2392,2,3301,2185,7],"tags":[398,402,397,414,413,410,499,409,407,408,406,399,400,394,10,401,396,787,786,784,782,783,764,785,403,412,411,395,405,404,778,779,780,781],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7prtj-RIY","jetpack-related-posts":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206520"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/49"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=206520"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206520\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":206521,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/206520\/revisions\/206521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=206520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=206520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=206520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
