The race is on to be the first company with a 5G phone. Samsung, OnePlus and Motorola attended Qualcomm's conference to talk up their plans to launch devices early next year. And Qualcomm provided a long list of other handset makers working on 5G -- including Google, LG, Vivo and ZTE.

Samsung said it will have a phone for Verizon, AT&T and other networks in the first half of the year and at least one more later in 2019. And OnePlus' upcoming 5G device for UK carrier EE will be the first smartphone in Europe to use the new Snapdragon 855 chipset. In August, Motorola revealed that in early 2019 it will release a 5G "Mod," or module, that attaches to the back of the Moto Z3. The Mod will let it run on Verizon's 5G network.
