Before the announcement of the Samsung Galaxy S5, there were rumors surrounding the handset with regards to its price, suggesting that the handset could be priced cheaper than its predecessor and the competition.

Back in 2013, Sony unveiled the Xperia Z, which at that time was the company’s flagship handset. While the Xperia Z packed some pretty impressive hardware, there were a couple of features that made it stand out from the rest of the competition – waterproof and dustproof.

While we doubt these are features that many customers base their decisions on, it is a pretty handy feature especially in those “oops” moments when you drop the phone in the pool, the toilet, or where it might get wet in the rain. This is a feature Sony carried on to its other products, including the Xperia Z2.

However it turns out that waterproof and dustproof are features Samsung decided to introduce to its latest Galaxy S5 as well.

China’s Oppo has been teasing its upcoming flagship smartphone for quite some time now, and it too has taken some time out to take a swing at the Samsung Galaxy S5. Soon after the flagship was unveiled, HTC mocked the lack of radical changes and conveyed to the world in a not so subtle manner to look out for its new smartphone, which will be unveiled on March 25th. Oppo has done something along the same line, releasing yet another Oppo Find 7 teaser, but one that takes an obvious swing at the Galaxy S5.

At first it was expected that HTC would unveil its 2014 flagship at the Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona. Apparently the company didn’t want Samsung’s Galaxy S5 to steal its thunder, which is presumably why it has scheduled a separate event for March 25th in New York and London where it will finally lift the wraps off the HTC One successor. The company has been doing its bit in building hype for the next flagship, and it has uploaded a new teaser on YouTube.
