hey what is up guys I'm kid Bhd here and it's getting to be that time of year again when tech picks up again when we start to move a little bit faster now I'm sure a lot of you guys realize that after CES in January there's a little bit of a lull where we're all kind of recovering from that but now it's getting to be that point where we're speeding up and we're getting some new announcements and some new leaks so as if the current generation of smartphones isn't good enough already here are the five best upcoming smartphones to expect in the next couple of weeks and months number five is the Moto X 2 or the successor to the Moto X this one's a little bit lower on the list because it's a little bit further off so late summer for this one so August or September maybe but this will be the first smartphone that we see from the new Motorola after the lenovo acquisition so we haven't really gotten a whole lot of information about what exactly is changing behind the scenes at Motorola who's staying who's leaving what kind of designers are going to stay onboard and what kind of philosophies will stay onboard so I mean the Moto X was a crowd favorite a lot of people like that phone so it'll be interesting to see how much of those philosophies carry over into the next Moto X is what we know about Motorola is correct then we're not going to be expecting the highest end phone ever on paper I mean the Moto X was not the top of the pile in terms of specs but for all we know they could have been working on this phone since the day the Moto X came out as far as we know before the Lenovo acquisition so when this new Motorola flagship finally comes out it'll give us a better idea of the difference that Lenovo has made to Motorola and the direction they're headed in terms of flagships in the United States pretty important to distinguish the difference between the old motorola and the new motorola and this new phone is going to help us see exactly that number four is the Sony Xperia z2 now this is definitely a high-end phone and it's already in existence already people who went to Mobile World Congress got to see it I didn't go so I haven't seen it yet but if you couldn't tell by the name the z2 is the successor to the Sony Xperia z1 that are reviewed and I had my gripes with the z1 that I talked about in the review video some annoyances with the display and the flaps all over the phone and the Xperia z2 is still IP 58 certified which means it's still dust proof and water-resistant but it does have some new improvements to the display and the build the design the battery and the specs of course so there's a lot of improvements behind the scenes to make this a worthy successor to the z1 there are also some camera software improvements so it has the same 20 megapixel sensor as a z1 but it joins the ranks now of smartphones to shoot 4k video so the z2 is shaping up to be Sony's major flagship competitor for 2014 and that'll be out on April 1st number three is the Samsung Galaxy s5 a lot of people were expecting a lot from the stone and it's almost impossible to live up to the hype we see this with basically the iPhone and the Samsung Galaxy S line but don't get me wrong this is still a very high-end phone so it still has a 2.5 gigahertz quad-core processor 2 gigs of ram the latest version of Android a 5.1 inch 1080p display it's the whole works but I actually did get to spend time with this phone so if you want to check out my full impressions video of it boom you can click there for the first link below the like button and that'll be what I think of the Galaxy s5 so you can click that or already could you know click it later it opens in a new tab so you can just leave it there and come back to this video yeah so that phone comes out on April 11 so number two is the all-new HTC One or the m8 as we're still calling it it's a successor to the m7 or the current HTC One which I'm actually using as my daily driver recently and lighting a lot this phone we thought wasn't going to leak and then we remembered it's 2014 and everything leaks so we got a 12 minute hands-on review video of this phone comparing it to the one it may not be the best video in the world but it's the only video in the world showing this phone what it looks like in person so you might as well watch it if you're as interested as I am so look this phone is all about build quality and design again that's what it was all about with the original HTC one that's when it's going to be about that's the number one talking point again for the m8 and it looks like it's going to keep a lot of the same design features from the original one including those front-facing speakers but with a couple little quirks about it I mean this this slightly asymmetrical speakers and the slightly unnecessary chin but that's okay because we already know this is going to be a very high-end phone again as HTC does and if you want to check out exactly what to expect I also did a what to expect video I'll just leave that link right below that like button if you want to watch that so we learn very quickly last year after the one max came out that it's really all about that one flagship so we'll find out on March 25th exactly how successful HTC is going to look this year so number one is the Oppo find 7 now this one's a sleeper for a lot of people but you know I mentioned a lot of the previous phones plan on being high-end top-notch flagship caliber specs by the looks of the teasers we've seen and what Oppo has shown us or at least told us about so far this phone aims to top everything it aims to trump that whole race it's trying to win the flagship spec war they've teased a 5.5 inch 2560 by 1440 display 2.5 k Snapdragon 805 processor 3 gigabytes of RAM removable storage a removable 4,000 milliamp hour battery and a recently suggested a 50 megapixel camera 55 0 okay basically the only thing we're not sure about with this phone is the design so obviously the fine fives design was very nice but that was a sealed phone the fine 7 is going to be an unsealed phone so really I am very very curious to see if Apple can pull this all together into one flagship spec package it seems like there's so much new stuff it would be really difficult to pull it all off especially the new camera rumors got me kind of nervous about what to expect with this phone but I'm going to keep my eye on Oppo social media as well as all the other companies I would mentioned in this video and we'll see I posed new flagship to find 7 on March 19th so what are you looking forward to most this 2014 if I nailed it feel free to give this video a thumbs up but there are plenty of other phones you could name the Galaxy Note 4 the iPhone 6 the Nexus 6 feel free to let me know what the number one phone you're looking forward to this year is in the comments section below and maybe we'll see some new things down there either way all aboard the hype train thanks for watching and I'll talk to you guys in the next video peace
