Ben Wood, Chief of Research, CCS Insight recently dropped us a line on Samsung's 2016 Mobile Trends. Confirming what we've seen ourselves, smartphones have reached the stage where all smartphones are in a "sea of sameness". While innovation is few and far in between like Samsung's Galaxy Edge dual-curved display and Apple's recent 3D Touch feature, this does not mean that innovation will stop. According to CCS Insight, 1.63 billion smartphones will sell in 2016 alone. As Samsung and Apple clash, new industry players like Huawei are also on the rise.

LG G5 rumours have been around in the internet for quite some time now, especially since MWC 2016 is drawing closer. However, LG might be also planning another new G5 device in the line up – a G5 lite version. 

As MWC 2016 is getting closer, more companies are starting to throw in the hype of their own product teasers. Huawei will be one of the big competitors there, but we aren't sure what they will be showing us. However, we do know that it will involve a stylus pen and rumours said it could be a hybrid laptop that was speculated in the internet last month.
