Another week has passed and its time again to take a look back at what the mobile world excited us with during the past few days. Announcements have been rather slow and justifiably so as everybody seems to be gearing up for MWC 2015. The venue is set for Barcelona and all eyes seem to be on Samsung, with their event scheduled for March 1. The next S flagship has been gathering so much attention lately that leaks and bits of information have basically been flooding the news section. To be fair most of what we have seen so far from the Galaxy S6 are leaked panels, along with renderings of the device, based on preliminary information. One such leak may have just confirmed the existence of a double-sided curved display variant of the Galaxy S6, presumably the future Galaxy S Edge. The new metal frame of the device was also showcased along with the port, camera and flash layout. But rumors extend beyond Samsung land. Android fans seems to be just as excited about HTC's next flagship phone. Pickens have been rather slim for the HTC One (M9), but word has come out that it might just be equipped with a 20MP main camera. Other than that LG and Sony are still not completely out of the ball park and hopes are up that at least one of them will announce a flagship device at MWC. The Android update craze has also been running ramped the past week with updates flying all over the place. Google even made the next major OS version official so we now have Android 5.1 to look forward to. If you think you might have missed anything from the past week here is a quick rundown of the post popular news articles in no particular order. .news-item .n-left { float: left; width: 16%; text-align: center; margin-left: -13px; } .news-item .n-right { float: left; width: 84%; } .news-item a { padding-bottom: 0; padding-left: 0; } .news-item .n-right h2, .reviews-item .n-right h2 { clear: both; padding: 0 0 3px 0px; font: 400 19px Oswald, Arial; margin-top: -4px; } .n-right p { line-height: 155%; } .news-item { padding-top: 20px; padding-bottom: 10px; border-top: 1px solid #ccc; } .news-item p { margin-left: 0; } .n-right h2 a { text-decoration: none; color: #000; } Cyanogen branding disappears from OnePlus One OnePlus one no longer ships with Cyanogen branding on its back cover.

Galaxy Note 4 Lollipop update delayed due to Gear VR With the Lollipop craze in full steam and the Galaxy Note 3 already up for a soak test in Russia it is only natural to expect that Samsung will give an equal share of attention to the Galaxy Note 4 and Galaxy Note Edge.

Sony Xperia Z4 to sport slim bezels and new speaker design The Sony Xperia Z4 is one of the less likely announcements expected to be seen at the MWC a few weeks from now, judging by the lack of tangible info on the device.
