New Mobile
for 2015 Which one? We are big fans of mobile technology, but we are more impressed by what’s to come in 2015. Here we reveal the four upcoming smartphones that you should be most excited about in 2015.
iPhone
HTC One M9 Samsung Galaxy S6
iPhone 7 / iPhone 6s The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus were released in September 2014 and in the months leading up to that the rumour mill went into overdrive. Be prepared for more of the same with the iPhone 7, which will launch in September 2015 running iOS9. As always, we are expecting a faster processor and some upgraded specifications, but little change to the design. (Note that it will probably be called the iPhone 6s rather than iPhone 7.)
Samsung Galaxy S6 If you’re a Samsung fan but would rather stick to a phone than a phablet (A class of mobile device designed to combine the functions of a smartphone and tablet) then
the S6 will be just what you’re looking for. Samsung’s finally expected to tackle the plastic build quality criticism that its S-series handsets have received, using an all-metal design in line with that of the Galaxy Alpha. We wouldn’t be surprised to also see a quad-HD screen, plus plenty of other radical new features. We should see the Samsung Galaxy S6 unveiled at a Samsung Unpacked event sometime in early 2015.
HTC One M9 Supporters of the HTC One M9, just can’t wait for a better version of the phone. Little is known about the HTC One M9, but you can bet there will be one and that it will be an extremely desirable handset. Based on
LG G4
HTC’s previous form, the Android Lollipop -based HTC One M9 won’t be here in time for MWC 2015 (Mobile World Congress 2015 – Barcelona 2-5 March) but we can expect to see it around sometime in 2015.
LG G4 We stand by our statement that the LG G3 was the best phone in 2014. Things can only get better with the LG G4. The LG G3 was officially released in Europe at the end of June 2014. The LG G4 should be here around the same time in summer 2015. Tel: +357 96329144 boris@bbcomputerlab.com www.bbcomputerlab.com
