Some smartphones are worth waiting for, and there are some stunners coming in 2016. These are the best phonescoming
in 2016, including the best new Android phones, best new iPhones, best
new Windows phones, best new Samsung phones, best new Sony phones, best
new HTC phones, best new LG phones and more.
In this feature we'll show you some of the exciting new iPhones and
new Android phones (listed alphabetically) that will launch over the
coming year. We'll also look back on some of the best new phones of
2015.
Apple's holding a special event in mid-March in which it is expected
to take the wraps off a new 4in iPhone, alongside the second-gen Apple Watch and iPad Air 3. There's not a lot on the rumour mill regarding what to expect, but we'd guess it will be very much like the iPhone 5s.
We reckon the 4in iPhone will, like the 5s, have a 326ppi Retina
display and 1GB of RAM, but feature the beefed up A9 processor. Apple iPhone 7z
The iPhone 7 will be Apple's brand-new flagship phone for 2016, and
following tradition should be announced in September. Although the final
release date is still many months away, that hasn't stopped the rumour
mill going crazy over the upcoming iPhone.
We've already seen rumours that the new iPhone will feature big
design changes, with an all-new D-jack headphone jack, waterproofing
protection and an eSIM. Loads of rumours are circulating about the
screen too - will it get bigger? Will it feature a curved edge? Will it
have a Touch ID display, or edge-to-edge glass?
One things for sure, the new iPhone will be faster than ever, with an
A10 processor and embedded M10 motion co-processor, plus 2GB of RAM.
We round up all the iPhone 7 rumours here.
It's very early days for new Nexus 6 rumours, but we've already heard
a tip-off that the smartphone will once again be made by Huawei, and
that it will feature a Snapdragon 820 chip, which is more powerful and
energy efficient, and builds in support for Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0.
Some other stuff we 'know' includes the fact it will be the launch vehicle for the new Android OS, Android N,
and it will most likely arrive in October. This will be a large-screen
phablet (the clue is in the '6') and with support for USB-C now built
into Android it will use that format for data transfer and charging.

Now that we know the phone unveiled by HTC in October was
an HTC One A9, we're still expecting to see the HTC One M10 in March
2016.
HTC One launches are traditionally held just prior to
March's Mobile World Congress show, and HTC chairwoman Cher Wang has
said there would be significant improvements in innovations and design
for the next flagship model next year. However, we're expecting to see
the HTC One M10 shortly after MWC, with a separate launch event held in
March 2016.
A key area in which HTC now lags behind its rivals is the
screen, with the M9 featuring a full- rather than Quad HD display. We'd
expect to see some key improvements here, as well as some general
performance enhancements.
It's not long since we welcomed the LG G4,
but the LG G5 was announced by the company on 21 February. It's the
company's first modular-design smartphone, which can be transformed into
a digital camera or Hi-Fi player. It features a sleek aluminium unibody
with a slide-out battery.
In common with the Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge the LG G5 has an
always-on screen (here 5.3in), which makes it easier to check the time
or notifications at a glance. Another innovative feature is the two
cameras on the rear - one with an extra-wide 135-degree lens.
Key specs include the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, 4GB of RAM,
32GB of storage (with MicroSD up to 200GB), a 2800mAh removable battery
and Android Marshmallow. The G5 comes in Silver, Titan, Gold or Pink,
and will be available to pre-order in March for an April release.
We're still waiting on confirmation of the price, but we expect the
G5 to cost around £500. Indeed, Mobile Fun is already accepting
pre-orders at £499.99.
The LG G Flex 2 was an interesting smartphone, with its curved
form-factor and material that would automatically heal scratches. Mark 3
should be more interesting still, with a rumoured metal body and
premium design.
Expect the Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 and 4GB of RAM inside, plus 32GB
of (expandable via microSD) storage. Leaks suggest there will be a
3500mAh battery, a fingerprint scanner, and 20.7/8Mp cameras.
Although the LG G Flex 3 has not yet been officially confirmed by the
company, we expect it to make an appearance in early 2016, with a price
tag a touch over £500. Next »
Surface Phone rumours have been few and far between, leading some to
think it's nothing more than a myth. But it was recently revealed by Wired that Microsoft Corporate VP Panos Panay has been working on a prototype of a new phone.
Should it truly exist, the Surface Phone is expected to arrive in
2016, with a 5.5in Quad-HD AMOLED display, 4GB of RAM, 64- and 128GB
storage options (with microSD support), a 64-bit Intel processor and
21Mp rear- and 8Mp front cameras. The Surface Phone could also get a
Surface Pen and a USB-C port.
Things on Kickstarter are often a complete load of rubbish but the
Nextbit Robin is a success story which we're looking forward to seeing
in the flesh.
The firm was founded in 2012 and its key staff have been involved
with Android since the beginning. Collectively, they've worked on
launching phones including the G1, Nexus and HTC One M8 and M8.
Due to arrive February 2016 with a price tag of $399, the
'cloud-first' smartphone has a different approach to most other Android
devices on the market. There is on-board storage but the phone will
automatically optimise by doing things like moving unused apps and
photos to the cloud.
Despite having only recently announced the OnePlus X, a smaller
OnePlus smartphone than the company's flagship OnePlus 2, there are
rumours that we'll soon see a third OnePlus smartphone.
This new OnePlus phone will be smaller than the OnePlus X, but with
performance to match the OnePlus 2, so we assume it will be priced
somewhere in between the two - that's if it ever sees the light of day.
The rumours of a OnePlus 2 Mini phone stem from an entry in the
GFXBench database of an unknown OnePlus device with a 4.6in screen (the
OnePlus X has a 5in screen and the OnePlus 2 a 5.5in screen). That's a
full-HD (1808p panel), and other specs include a 1.7GHz Qualcomm
Snapdragon 810 processor, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage and 12Mp/5Mp
cameras. In common with the OnePlus 2, there's no NFC.

Samsung has officially unveiled its Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge. Samsung
fans will be pleased to know the handsets see the return of both a
MicroSD slot and waterproofing, and although it's not removable the
battery has been bumped up to 3000mAh in the S7 and 3600mAh in the S7
Edge. Also see: Samsung Galaxy S7 review.
Both phones feature a Quad-HD SuperAMOLED screen - the S7 at 5.1in
and the Edge at 5.5in - and these feature new always-on (except when
it's in your pocket or at night) technology, making it easier to check
the time or read notifications at a glance.
Inside these Android Marshmallow phones you'll find either the Exynos
8890 or Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, depending on the market. You'll also
get 4GB of RAM and 32GB of storage. Also see: Samsung Galaxy S7 vs Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge.
The camera has been downgraded to 12Mp, but larger pixels and a f/1.7
aperture will allow it to receive 95 percent more light. This is also
seen at the front for the 5Mp selfie camera, and Samsung says the S7 is
the first phone with a Dual Pixel sensor.
The Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge are available to pre-order now
at £569 and £639 respectively. Pre-order before 5 March and you'll get
the phones ahead of their official 11 March release date on 8 March -
and you'll get a free Gear VR headset.
So Sony didn't just neglect to announce the Xperia Z6 at MWC 2016. It
isn't going to announce it at IFA 2016 either. But while uSwitch says
the Sony Xperia Z6 will never exist, Sony has since clarified that it
isn't ruling out the possibility at some point in the future. (Doesn't
sound too hopeful to us.)
Sony has replaced the Xperia Z6 with a new 'X' family of smartphones,
starting with the Xperia X and Xperia XA, which we saw at MWC 2016.
Read our hands-on review with the Sony Xperia X and XA. The Xperia X and Xperia XA boast next-generation camera technology, battery and design. They take Sony in a whole new direction, and the company says that the new series “embodies Sony Mobile's new brand vision.” The two new phones, which both have 5in screens (full-HD for
the X and 720p for the XA), 23Mp cameras, support for microSD and smart
battery management, should be here in the summer. They won't be as fast
as Sony's Z series, with a Snapdragon 650 powering the Xperia X and a
MediaTek MT6755 inside the XA.
Huawei's latest flagship has a gorgeous unibody metal design that's
stylish enough to rival HTC and Apple, yet it undercuts the price of
those smartphones with a starting price of 499 Euro, or £357. There is a
standard 5.2in Huawei P8, or a huge 6.8in Huawei P8 max.
The phone and phablet should have gone on sale in the UK in April, with
a worldwide launch following 15 May. We're unable to find the Max
version for sale right now (check out our Huawei P8 and P8 max UK release date, price and specs), but keep your eyes peeled - it's worth hunting down.

At an event in China, LeEco has launched not one, but three new smartphones. Called Le 2, Le 2 Pro and Le Max 2, all three smartphones come with metal unibody design, thin bezels on the front and a fingerprint scanner for added security. One of the talking points of these smartphones is the USB Type-C Audio port. While there have been leaked reports that Apple iPhone 7 would skip the 3.5mm audio port, LeEco has already done this with its new smartphones. LeEco also announced that these smartphones will feature CDLA (Continual Digital Loseless Audio) technology to offer high-quality uncompressed audio. LeEco Le 2 specifications and features: It flaunts a 5.5-inch full HD (1080p) display and is powered by MediaTek’s Helio X20 tri-cluster deca-core processor paired with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage.
