The Galaxy S5 and the HTC One M8 just came out, but what’s
next? If you’re like us and are never content with what you already have, then
DT is here to help. There are a lot of exciting things coming later this year.
It’s tough to keep track of them all, so we’ve put together this list of all
the smartphones you’ll be drooling over by the end of this year.
On this page, you’ll find several phones we know are coming,
but haven’t been announced yet. On page two we’ll get into some of the phones
we know are coming, but have yet to hit store shelves.
Apple’s iPhone 6
Whether you’re an Apple fan
or not, the
iPhone 6 is probably the biggest smartphone release of the year. If
the many (many) rumors are correct, the company is sticking with tradition, and
this year’s model will be drastically different from those before it.
The biggest departure will be its extra large screen,
perhaps measuring 4.7-inches, with a higher pixel resolution. There’s plenty
more gossip, too. The screen could be covered in unbreakable sapphire; the body
could be very slim; and of course, iOS 8 could take yet more bold steps forward.
There’s also a chance it’ll be joined by the iWatch, and there’s even talk of a
second, even larger iPhone coming soon afterwards. We should know more around
September.

LG G3
LG has continually upped its game for the last two years,
and the rumored LG G3,
its 2014 flagship Android phone, could be its best smartphone yet. The most
exciting part? It’s looking highly likely that its 5.5-inch screen will have a
2560 x 1440 pixel resolution, which will make it the first device widely
available with such a high pixel count. Other features to look out for include a
new user interface, a possible octa-core processor, and 13-megapixel
camera. The LG G3’s launch event should take place sometime before the summer.

G3 Rumor Roundup.
Samsung Galaxy Note 4
Talk about Samsung’s next phone and tablet hybrid has only
just begun, but it’s already causing a stir. We expect the screen to be bigger
than ever, at least 5.9-inches, and it may even be curved at the edges, making
it entirely bezel-less. Like the LG G3, Samsung’s Galaxy Note 4 may also
feature a 2560 x 1440 pixel screen resolution. It’s early days for
Note 4 rumors, but we should expect at least a 16-megapixel camera, a
waterproof chassis, and some flashy new handwriting recognition features.
Samsung’s fond of announcing its newest Note phone during the IFA trade show,
held in early September.

Note 4 Rumor Roundup.
Amazon’s Fire 3D smartphone
One of the year’s most unusual phones could end up coming
from a relative newcomer, Amazon. We’ve been hearing about its supposed plans
to make a smartphone for years, but nothing has ever come of it, until setof leaked pictures made everything seem a little more real recently.
If the phone does launch, it may come with a clever eye-tracking system to
create a 3D user interface. We’ll have to wait to find out if this is the
coolest feature ever, or the gimmick it sounds like, until Amazon finally makes
it official.

Fire 3D Phone Rumor Roundup.
HTC One M8 Mini
HTC spun off the popular HTC One several times, coming up
with the One Mini and the One Max, so it’s logical to imagine it’ll do the same
with the recentlyannounced One M8. Rumors of
the One M8 Mini have already started to spread. If they’re accurate, it’ll
probably have a 4.5-inch, 720p screen, a quad-core processor, and Android 4.4
with Sense 6.0. However, it probably won’t have the One M8’s Duo Camera, and
may shun the UltraPixel setup completely, in favor of a standard 13-megapixel
camera. Hints have been dropped the phone will be headed to Verizon,
and that it could be announced in May.

Samsung Galaxy K Zoom
Samsung’s follow-up to the Galaxy S4 Zoom, which may be
named the K Zoom,
Galaxy K, or a combination of both, is all set to be announced at an event
later in April. Expect some major changes over its predecessor, including a
thinner chassis, a larger screen and a faster processor. The good news is, if
leaked pictures are correct, the camera lens should be flush against the body,
but still retain a 10x optical zoom. We’ll bring you all the news from the
event on April 29, when we’ll find out for sure what Samsung is going to name
its new phone.
