The new year of 2014 brought with it the promise of a new crop of next generation smartphones. With Mobile World Congress and CES just around the corner, it’s only natural that rumors regarding the latest wonderful smartphones to be launched this year are starting to emerge. Without denying the fact that most of them are purely speculations, here is the top three models of what I think the most anticipated smartphone launches in 2014 are:

Samsung Galaxy S5

Perhaps it’s because I’m an Android fan, but in my opinion, the hottest handset on the horizon is the Samsung Galaxy S5, rumored to be launched at the Mobile World Congress. Given the abundance of features and excellent performance of the Galaxy S4 and the Galaxy Note 3 follow up, many are wondering about the intentions of the Korean manufacturer.

What other aces could they have up their sleeve after such launching the extraordinary Galaxy S4? For starters, there is a lot of talk about a new 5.2 inch device with a 2560 x 1440 resolution and 3GB of RAM, so you can expect a super-sharp and a class leading pixel-density smartphone. In addition, if you were to believe the leaked specs, then the Galaxy S5 will be available with a new user interface, taking the popular TouchWiz to the next level. Moreover, since the case is said to include some metal, chances are that Samsung is aiming to draw the attention of current HTC users.

Sony Xperia Z2

So far, Sony has used two editions of the Consumer Electronic Shows (CES) for launching two of its best handsets, namely the Z1 Compact and its brother Z1S. Furthermore, Sony made a habit out of launching a new handset at the beginning of each year. In other words, all signs indicate that we should expect the highly anticipated Sony Xperia Z2 launch in the near future. Rumors have it that the Japanese phone-maker intends to launch Xperia Z2 this February at the Mobile World Congress, although the new handset will most likely become available worldwide in April 2014.

Despite the fact that Z1 was a pretty solid device with an appealing monolithic look, users complained that the gadget felt a little bloated. Apparently, Sony plans to heed the customers’ call, considering that the Z2 is said to trim the design a bit. Obviously, a 5.2-inch screen, HD display and a boost to 3GB of RAM are also expected.

iPhone 6

Even though there are numerous rumors suggesting the launch of the iPhone sometime at the end of 2014, let’s not forget that an Apple launch is always something to get excited about. While Apple was quick to dismiss rumors regarding the new launch, there have been several leaks suggesting that the next gen iPhone will come with a 4.9 inch display and that it would be made of the super-though Sapphire Glass. If these rumors prove true, then I believe the iPhone 6 launch will be a real success, especially since previous screens didn’t need much to shatter.
