Its not like there’s any shortage of rumors about the Samsung Galaxy S5, but can expect to be treated to new rumors each and every day until the smartphone is official. It might take a while before that happens, the company is expected to make an announcement at Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona next month, though that too is yet to be confirmed. Previous display rumors have hinted at a possible QHD resolution, but today a contradictory Galaxy S5 display rumor begs us to consider the possibility of Samsung’s next smartphone having a 1080p display instead. Don’t confuse QHD with qHD, they’re both totally different, 540×960 pixel resolution is qHD, which we can rule out for Galaxy S5.

Last year at Mobile World Congress we were treated to our first up-close look at the LG Optimus G Pro, a device that took everything that was good about the … Continue reading

So we know that according to LG, there is an LG G Pro 2 which will be the successor to last year’s LG G Pro, the South Korean company’s answer to Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3. That being said while we do know of the device’s existence, its specs and how it actually looks like remains something of a mystery, at least until recently where a pair of alleged LG G Pro 2 photos was leaked and made their way onto the internet, courtesy of a post on the DC Inside forum in South Korea. The photos aren’t much to look at and for all we know could have been easily photoshopped, but until proven otherwise, we’ll assume, with a degree of skepticism, that these are indeed photos of the upcoming handset.

Come MWC 2014, we are expecting to see a handful of new devices from Sony. The company did take off the wraps for some handsets during CES 2014, such as the Xperia Z1 Compact, but at MWC 2014 many are looking forward to Sony’s next flagship handset, the Xperia Z2 which has also been known by its codename, Sirius. Well thanks to an FCC filing, a certain Sony PM-0740-BV has made an appearance which many are speculating is the Sony Xperia Z2, despite the Xperia Z2’s other model number being the D6503. The device found at the FCC does come with several different LTE bands which would make it compatible with a variety of different carriers in the US, depending on which are enabled.

However apart from the handset sighting, it seems that another Sony device has been spotted at the FCC as well, this time in the form of the TM-0043-BV which has some thinking that it could be the rumored Sony “Castor” tablet. The tablet has been rumored about for a while now and it is expected to see a release in Japan in the second quarter of this year, but an FCC sighting would suggest that a US release could in the cards as well. With the last tablet from Sony being the Xperia Tablet Z from back in 2013, chances are the Castor could be its successor, but we guess more details will be shared come MWC 2014, so check back with us then for more information on either device.

Over the past few months we have covered an endless stream of rumors about Samsung’s Tizen smartphone. The company was originally supposed to release said smartphone last year, but it confirmed twice that the device had been delayed. Now Samsung Tizen smartphone isn’t expected to be released until later this year, even though the company is highly likely to showcase it at Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona next month. Rumor has it that the delay might have been caused by Samsung’s decision to use Intel’s Merrifield system-on-chip, as opposed to one from rival Qualcomm.
