After two exceptional technology events, Consumer Electronics Show 2012 and Mobile World Congress 2012, the time has finally come to draw the line and to see which are the most awaited smartphones in 2012.
Right from the start we are being teased with quad core processors, HD screens, state of the art photo / video cameras, 4G LTE support and, of course, the newest design innovations the smartphones market has to offer.
So, let’s sit tight and take a look at the top 10 most awaited smartphones this year.
1. HTC One X
HTC One X ships with a quad core processor, superHD display and support for 4G LTE connectivity.
But it’s real true advantage is the ImageSense technology for photo shoots and video conferences and this technology offers some of the best quality.
HTC One X will come with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, as well as with the HTC Sense interface.
2. LG Optimus 4X HD
It comes with a 4,7 inch display, 1280 x 720 pixels resolution, Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core platform and a 8 mega pixels photo / video camera.
4G LTE support makes it a very good smartphone for browsing the internet very fast.
3. Samsung Galaxy Beam
The first smartphone to come with a integrated projector, a projector that can project amazing images on a screen of 50 inch in size. Samsung Beam’s battery promises to provide up to three hours of super quality projection.
4. Nokia Lumia 610
This is a mid-budget Windows Phone smartphone.
It comes with a Qualcomm 7X27A processor and 258 MB RAM memory.
The operating system it runs on is Windows Phone 7.5 – and may be updated to future versions soon.
5. LG Optimus VU
A fierce rival for Samsung Galaxy Note.
LG Optimus VU ships with a 5 inch screen that supports a resolution of 1024 x 768 pixels.
The phone has a thickness of 8,5 mm, which makes it pretty thin and easy to carry in our pockets.
6. HUAWEI ASCEND D QUAD
A smartphone with a powerful K3V2 quad core processor.
Ascend D Quad comes with a 4,5 inch screen, 1280 x 720 resolution, 1 GB of RAM memory and Dolby Digital 5.1 sound. It also comes with the latest Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system and with a pretty decent battery of 1.800 mAh capacity.
7. ASUS Padfone
A unique combination between a tablet and a top quality smartphone.
Padfone is a high end smartphone with a 4,5 inch qHD display, dual core 1.5 GHZ processor and Ice Cream Sandwich operating system.
The smartphone has a 10.1 inch screen at a 1280 x 800 pixels resolution.
8. Sony Xperia P
It comes with a 4 inch qHD screen and it will be available in red, silver and black.
Sony Xperia P will arrive on the market in the second trimester of this year.
9. Nokia Lumia 900
Windows Phone 7.5 has a “tight” relation with the 4G LTE technology, all in a high end smartphone from Nokia.
It has an exceptional design, a 4.3 inch display, Carl Zeiss lenses ( 8 MP photo / video camera resolution ), as well as personalized applications like Nokia Drive.
This smartphone has all the ingredients of becoming a hit on the smartphones market.
10. iPhone 5
There are so many rumors on the internet about the new iPhone 5 from Apple that you seriously do not know what to believe.
According to some of these rumors, iPhone 5 will be released somewhere in the middle of 2012 and it will benefit from 4G LTE support, a faster processor and a bigger screen.
Considering that the iPad 3 was actually “the new iPad”, we might guess that the next iPhone might come under the name of “the new iPhone”.

After owning Nokia N8, Nokia Lumia and Sony Xperia, I am going to listen to what most people have always told me to do so next round. Get a HTC or Samsung.
They may not be the sexiest or most stylish but HTC and Samsung are certainly the most reliable and have the least worries that I know!
I-phone? Well i am not sure about it so I can’t comment !
