Samsung has officially announced the successor to last year’s incredibly popular Android-powered Galaxy Camera, aptly entitled the Galaxy Camera 2, just a few days before CES is scheduled to take place in Las Vegas.

Uncharacteristically, for a sequel, Samsung doesn’t appear to have added many new bells and whistles to the device, but the South Korean company promises that the camera should deliver a better experience overall in comparison to the 2013 model.

Samsung’s already launched its first smartphone with a curved glass display, but that’s just a little taster of things to come from the South Korean consumer electronics giant. In fact, the Galaxy Round actually looks pretty boring when you compare it to the smartphone depicted in these Samsung patents, which features a wraparound display that extends around the edges of the device.

A Galaxy S5 concept.

Today, the Head of Design at Samsung Mobile, Dong-hoon Chang, has allegedly confirmed in an interview with a South Korean publication that the company will unveil its upcoming flagship smartphone of 2014, the Galaxy S5, at this years Mobile World Congress, which is scheduled to take place in February.

Samsung’s new Rose Gold Galaxy Note 3, which was announced in early December, will soon be available in South Korea. The new device will go on sale in Samsung’s home country on Saturday, January 4, and all three of South Korea’s major carriers will be offering it.

Every year, various Android OEMs release hundreds of new Android powered smartphones. However, only a handful of them sell in millions of units and are truly worth your hard earned money.

This year was no different with Samsung and releasing their flagship handsets by the first half of this year, followed by LG, Sony, Google and Motorola in the second half. But, which was the best Android smartphone released this year? Read our round up below to find out.
