Huawei Highlights Mobile AI Momentum at MWC 2025
Home » Tech Value Chain » Global Brands » Huawei Highlights Mobile AI Momentum at MWC 2025
At the Mobile AI Summit hosted by Huawei during Mobile World Congress (MWC) Shanghai 2025, industry leaders, AI ecosystem partners, and scholars gathered to explore mobile AI developments. The summit revealed two key consensuses: enhancing 5G-A uplink experience is critical for mobile AI, and network-service synergy is essential for monetizing AI experiences.
Huawei announced the launch of the GSMA Foundry project titled Mobile Network for Thriving AI . The project marks a shift toward experience-based network construction for mobile AI.
Wen Ku, President of the China Communications Standards Association (CCSA), emphasized the integration of 5G-A and AI as a core direction for network evolution. He highlighted the importance of smart integration, standardization, and ecosystem collaboration.
Speakers from companies including Rokid, MiniMax, and Unitree Robotics discussed how AI service providers are leading with differentiated services. AI interactions are expanding from touchscreens to multimodal methods such as voice, video, and spatial computing. These advances, supported by 5G-A, enable real-time services and high-quality AI video calls requiring uplink speeds of at least 20 Mbps.
Huawei revealed that its GigaBand solution plays a crucial role in powering 5G-A networks to support new AI applications. Through air interface resource pooling and orchestration via Optsolver, GigaBand helps build elastic, SLA-assured networks. These support services like live streaming, AI assistants, and cloud gaming. Huawei reported a 2.28x increase in 5G throughput after GigaBand deployment in Hong Kong.
The solution also ensures a stable 4G user experience while enabling multi-band sharing.
Speakers, including IEEE Fellow Zhi-Quan Luo and representatives from Ookla, shared their strategies for embracing AI in network optimization and digital transformation. They agreed that uplink, latency, and stability are key metrics for mobile AI performance.
Huawei concluded that innovations like GigaBand and collaborative ecosystems will help position mobile AI as a new growth engine for the telecom sector, enabling a more intelligent digital lifestyle.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge review: Does the slim phone pack the punch?
The last time Samsung released an Edge device was nearly a decade ago, and it featured a signature screen that's curved on the sides. Now, the company has revived the Edge branding, but this time slim's the name of the game with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge. First teased at January's Unpacked, the device seems to be a breath of fresh air in an era of smartphones getting bulkier as manufacturers cram in more components to power their features. The National takes a deeper look. Form: It has the edge At 5.8mm thin, the Galaxy S25 Edge is one slim phone, equivalent to about seven or eight credit cards stacked. For perspective, its bigger brother, the Galaxy S25 Ultra, is way up there 8.1mm, while the iPhone 16 Pro Max is even thicker at 8.25mm. Still, it's not the slimmest: while still a concept, the Tecno Spark Slim, which is a hairline thinner at 5.75mm, was teased at this year's Mobile World Congress. Meanwhile, the Motorola Moto Z from 2016 measured just 5.2mm. The rumoured iPhone 17 Air is also allegedly coming in at 5.5mm. Interestingly enough, the Galaxy Z Fold6 – when unfolded – is slimmer than the Galaxy S25 Edge at just 5.6mm. And since everything – buttons, USB-C port, etc – are in the same places as the rest of the Galaxy S25 line-up, this is literally a slimmer version of the Galaxy S25+ – except, however, for the camera. Which leads to a pet peeve: phone makers may tout their slim phones as such, but you do have to consider the camera bump. In the case of the Galaxy S25 Edge, it has a really big snapper bump that spikes its thickness to 8.45mm – which means this is what you'll be dealing with after slapping on a protective case. It takes the edge off its slimness. Galaxy AI stays put Samsung has chosen to keep its generative artificial intelligence platform, Galaxy AI, intact as it is on the Galaxy S25 Edge. It is a little surprising that there are no major boosts for the new device. To recap, Galaxy AI was launched last year and it ushered generative AI into Samsung mobiles. Gradual improvements have been rolled out, and the Galaxy S25 Edge Samsung is heavily promoting its Now Bar, a little strip on the lower area of the lock screen that lets you control supported apps. One advantage that Samsung's Now Bar has over the Apple iPhone's Dynamic Island is that it is easier to access being below the screen and allowing for more convenient one-hand use. Additionally, it is possible to set up and scroll through multiple apps on the Now Bar for added flexibility. A disadvantage, on the other hand, is that things are still being worked out to let third-party apps use the Now Bar. Additionally, Google Gemini's incorporated as well, so that's a bonus. Make do with two The biggest downsizing on the Galaxy S25 Edge is on its camera, as it only sports a dual-lens system compared to the rest of the S25 line-up's triple setup. The last Galaxy S device with a dual camera was 2019's Galaxy S10e. It does, however, make up for that with a massive 200MP main sensor, and we do have to give it props for the crisp and clean shots, with good lighting balance. You can also capture videos in 4K. But the device lacks a telephoto camera, limiting its zoom capabilities. This was to be expected, since a telephoto sensor requires more space, so there might not have been a way to cram it into the device's thin frame. Battery's on the low side The Galaxy S25 Edge has the smallest battery in the S25 series, clocking in at just 3900mAh, lower than even the base S25 – and that isn't exactly a surprise, given its thinner frame. From a full charge in the morning and with some intense use throughout the day, we found ourselves in the mid-30s by late afternoon, meaning that it was necessary to charge it up to make sure it doesn't conk out by night. That can be a little frustrating especially for those who have days that are unpredictable. In our standard one-hour YouTube-at-full-brightness test, the device lost 8 per cent, and it shot up to 47 per cent with a 30-minute charge, below its advertised 55 per cent, using a 45w adapter. Verdict: Who's this for? In Samsung's promotional materials and our first look, the Galaxy S25 Edge was being positioned as a lifestyle device, with shots of it snugly fitting into the pockets of tight jeans and really small purses. Having a slim device is refreshing take amidst all thicker devices out there. The Galaxy S25 Edge seems to be the non-foldable version of the Galaxy Z Flip, given some attributes they share such as the 6.7-inch (170mm) screen. But we see the smartphone as more of a statement device. We're unsure if users will find that the device's premium build and more unique look cancel out the toned-down specs. And more importantly – the Galaxy S25 Edge is more expensive than its most comparable peer, the Galaxy S25+. It will be interesting to find out the trickle-down effects of this – if we'd see an emergence of slimmer smartphones at lower price points; there are triple (and even quad) camera phones in the Dh1,000 range. It could be the start of a trend: aside from Apple's rumoured slimmer iPhone, word has it that the next Galaxy Z devices, the Fold7 and Flip7, are also tipped to be even slimmer than their predecessors. We'll have to wait and see who'll really have the edge in this race.

China responds to Taiwan's tech blockade
China has vowed to take action against Taiwan for trade restrictions enacted against Huawei and its largest chipmaker. Taiwan Affairs Office representative Zhu Fenglian said China would take 'effective measures' to maintain the normal order of cross-strait economic and trade exchanges, and safeguard the interests of companies on both sides. Zhu argued any actions by Taiwan authorities to undermine cross-strait economic cooperation would only damage the competitiveness of Taiwanese enterprises, adding the latest restrictions could not stop the 'pace of scientific and technological innovation in the mainland'. Taiwan's International Trade Administration put Huawei, Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp and several of their subsidiaries on its strategic high-tech commodities entity list earlier this month, blocking access to domestic factory construction technologies, along with materials and equipment used to build advanced chips. The US and other allies are also taking stronger measures to block Chinese companies' access to advanced chipmaking equipment and AI chips. Source: Mobile World live Image Credit: Stock Image
