At Mobile World Congress in Barcelona this week, Tecno showed off its Modular Magnetic Interconnection Technology: a minimalist base with pogo-pin connectors and magnets for easy add-ons like power banks, telephoto lenses, action cams, and even gaming controllers. Hands-on demos let crowds stack modules, turning the slim device into a customizable powerhouse for AI tasks without a USB-C port—charging happens wirelessly. While enthusiasts call it the 'craziest concept ever,' skeptics point to past modular flops like Project Ara, though Tecno positions it as a fresh take on phone evolution.
