Future phones
Of course, the best things come to those who wait. While the list above covers the best smartphones available to buy right now, it’s also worth considering what devices are scheduled to launch in the coming months.
So, if you're deciding whether to buy a smartphone right away, or you're tempted to wait for a cutting-edge handset that is on the cusp of launching, we've compiled a list of the best mobile phones that are slated, or even just rumoured, for release.
Bear in mind, though, that is just a list to whet your smartphone appetite - not all the facts, figures and specifications will be 100 percent reliable until these future phones are officially released.
Sony Xperia Z4
Date expected: Q1 2015
In recent times, Sony has been following a rapid-fire six-monthly release schedule for its flagship smartphones. It launched the Z2 at MWC in February 2014 and the Z3 (pictured) at IFA in September, so it could well release another at this year's MWC. There are rumours that Sony has abandoned this approach, so don't be suprised if we have to wait until later in the year.

Samung's crazy curved edge smartphone is now in the shops, and we will be posting our review of it in the coming weeks. Is it the new killer feature for smartphones, or just another gimmick? Find out soon.

Date expected: Q1 2015
