While Huawei faces bracing challenges of its own, the entire industry is feeling the burn as sales slow. Even Apple, whose iPhones sales made it a trillion-dollar company in 2018, has taken a hit on its new iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR, citing flagging interest in China. It's against this backdrop of softening interest that Samsung is launching a slew of devices in 2019, including a foldable phone and 5G-ready devices.

The mobile giant kept its invitation short and sweet, noting just the date and time of the event, and the livestream URL just below a central image. It's that visual that contains all the clues to what we'll be seeing. A graphic of the number 10 looks like it's been knocked over to the side, then split horizontally into north and south parts. The top half of the digit depicts black ink on a blue and pink background, while the bottom half shows white lettering on a dark purple surface that fades to black.
