10 Best Phones of 2014 Mobile World Congress

The current year's get-together of the telephone geeks has recently occurred in Barcelona, with Mobile World Congress 2014 seeing heaps of new mobiles uncovered by any semblance of HTC, Sony, LG and Samsung, all jarring for the prize of securing your 2014 telephone contract redesign.

1. YotaPhone 2

Not prone to touch base before late in 2014, the cutting edge YotaPhone was at MWC 2014 as an idea gadget. What's more, what an energizing idea it is as well, developing the virtuoso thought of staying a low power epaper show on the back of the telephone by making this B&W show now a full touchscreen.

This implies numerous key telephone capacities can be done through the inconceivably more proficient epaper screen, significance battery life should be huge when utilizing this dependably on screen alone for your notices. Inside, the omnipresent Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 runs the show, with the "principle" shading screen a 5-inch unit yielding at 1080 determination – and the epaper screen dealing with a better than average 960 x 540.

2. LG G Pro 2

LG's very much teased 5.9-inch whopper was one of the hits of MWC 2014, with the phablet gadget and its thump screen opening traps, post-shot refocusing and cunning showcase scaling for one-gave utilization demonstrating that LG's truly getting on the ball with its product highlights. The equipment's about more or less great, with the G Pro 2 running on a 2.26GHz Snapdragon 800 processor with 3GB of RAM, in addition to its 13megapixel camera has 4K feature catch and a 120fps moderate movement recording choice for…  whatever that may be for.

3. Sony Xperia Z2

Sony's enormous new leader for 2014 is the Xperia Z2, which some way or another crushes significantly more oomph into a body only 8.2mm thick. It's somewhat greater than a year ago's great Z1 section as well, with the Z2 offering a 5.2-inch show that works at the "full HD" determination of 1920 x 1080.

Interestingly, Sony's utilizing the Z2 to urge punters to update their home TVs, with the telephone's 20.7megapixel camera ready to catch 4K feature at the absurdly high 3840 x 2160 determination. That capacity comes on account of the redesigned internals, with the Z2 controlled by Qualcomm's shiny new Snapdragon 801 arrangement chipset timed at 2.3GHz and combined here with 3GB of RAM. A 3,200mAh battery should keep it running for a decent couple of days, as well. We trust.

4. Huawei Ascend G6

To the extent Huawei is concerned, the huge offering purpose of the Ascend G6 is its five-megapixel wide-edge front-confronting camera, implying that, on the off chance that you like taking a gander at your own face, you can do as such in preferred clarity over on opponent equipment. The back camera's an eight-megapixel unit fabricated by Sony, so legitimate pics of things other than your gurning face should turn out decent as well.

The G6 is bordering on the "financial backing" spec for 2014 somewhere else, however, consolidating a quad-center 1.2GHz chipset with 1GB of RAM and a low-ish determination showcase of 540 x 960. On only a 4.5-inch IPS screen that determination shouldn't be a lot of a major issue, with Huawei repaying with a low RRP of around €249 (£205). Not terrible for a thin 4G telephone.

5. Samsung Galaxy S5

Android's smash hit arrangement returns for 2014, with Samsung offering an abnormally quieted and not so much exciting redesign to the Galaxy S range. The Galaxy S5 is somewhat more precise than the bended Galaxy S4, with Samsung as yet staying with the physical Home catch and at the end of the day shunning a move to programming catches. While its not colossally exciting to take a gander at, the internal parts of the S5 are more than fit, with a first class Snapdragon 801 processor running the show and upheld by 2GB of RAM.

The Galaxy S reach has had incredible cameras since the Galaxy SII cleared everybody out with its shading generation and speed, and Samsung's keeping on driving here with a 16-megapixel sensor in the Galaxy S5. Additionally, as we're seeing numerous other telephone producers present, the S5's camera gives you a chance to conform shot concentrate after you've taken a photograph, in the event that you favor entering the obliged mode. What's more, its waterproof now, as well.

6. ZTE Grand Memo II

ZTE's upgraded phablet now includes an incredible six-inch show, which sits on a body only 7.2mm thick. The showcase, which keeps running at just 1280 x 720 determination, isn't exactly as noteworthy on paper as the 1080p units in a considerable lot of its huge boned adversaries, in addition to its Snapdragon 400 processor won't be testing any semblance of the Xperia Z2 for the influence client cash.

On the off chance that these little bargains mean ZTE can offer it at an average value, it may find real success, as it does the rudiments well by having a 13-megapixel camera, five-megapixel front-cam, microSD card backing and a vast 3,200mAh battery.

7. HTC Desire 816

The cell phone world's proceeded onward a ton since the first HTC Desire cleared every one of us out. The Desire 816's 5.5-inch 1280 x 720 showcase is absolutely widely appealing as far as measurement and determination in 2014, as screen sizes keep on blasting and resolutions reach ever larger amounts.

The plastic packaging of the 816 may look a bit shoddy in correlation with the greatly premium HTC One it takes numerous outline signals from, yet that is a piece of the trade off – HTC needs to make a modest phablet for the mass business. With the same huge, front-confronting speakers and that gigantic screen, its one for the substantial media purchasers.

8. Nokia XL

Poor old Microsoft's just gone and began making Android telephones, with its recently obtained equipment amigos at Nokia binning Windows Phone and utilizing Google's OS to power a progression of spending plan mobiles. The highlight of Nokia's Mobile World Congress Android demonstrating was the Nokia XL, a staggeringly reasonable 5-inch model costing only €109 (around £90).

There are bargains in abundance, mind, with the key Google administrations like Gmail and, ahem, Google+ missing from the intensely adjusted Android code, and Nokia depending on a 1GHz double center chipset to run its OS. So it won't be winning any late night, bar auto park benchmarking confrontations. It's about offering the huge telephone dream to the children, then trusting they move up to one of Nokia's more premium models in a year or three.

9. Sony Xperia M2

Likewise angling for purchasers at the monetary allowance end of the range is the Xperia M2, which is a littler, less capable and not exactly so appealing tackle Sony's cell phone plans. The M2 highlights a 4.8-inch screen that yields at the qHD determination of 960 x 540, with its Snapdragon 400 chipset moved down by 1GB of RAM. With 4G backing, an eight-megapixel camera, devoted shade catch and respectably low RRP of €220 (around £180), it'll tick a ton of boxes with individuals after strong elements at a nice cost.

10. LG G2 Mini

There's nothing especially "small scale" around a telephone with 4.7-inch show, so this is truly a bewildering name for LG's littler tackle the G2 Pro. Inside its been downsized regarding execution, with the G2 Mini fueled by a quad-center Qualcomm chipset timed at 1.2GHz and its show running at the non-HD determination.
