After launching smartphones and smartwatches at MWC 2015 on Sunday, Huawei also unveiled a new in-car 4G LTE hotspot device dubbed the Huawei CarFi.

Unlike the conventional USB Wi-Fi hotspot dongles, the CarFi gets directly plugged into the DC port/ lighter socket found in most cars, and supports 4G LTE connectivity as well. The cellular hotspot device CarFi is claimed to deliver a download speed of up to 150Mbps and can connect up to 10 devices simultaneously. Huawei has not yet announced the price and availability for CarFi.

Huawei CarFi includes a single-SIM slot for cellular card and a female USB port for charging smartphones. Users can remotely control the CarFi device via Huawei Hilink app available for Android and iOS devices.
