2014 has seen a lot of new smartphones and tablets from various tech giants: Samsung is nearing its release of the Galaxy S5, HTC has its One M8 and even LG with its G3. All of these newly released devices come with the Android OS which seems to be trend with today's smartphones.

The only exceptions would be Nokia's Windows phone series and the Apple iPhone.

A lot of upcoming phones running the Android OS are prepping for a 2014 release before the holiday season. However, LG for one isn't done with their G3 just yet. They just released a G3 S recently and a touch more work needs to put into the reguarl G3 before its release.

Three more phones are still to come from LG, the D392 which might become the F60, the X147, and the X132. The three phones are on a lower-tier than the G3, most will probably to be showcased as budget smartphones with lower-end specs. The X147 and X132 could get their own F codes, but nothing is certain yet.

ZTE is already on the roll, with its flagship phone the Nubia Z7 already selling. The Chinese phone manufacturer has reportedly sold around 53,000 units of its new phone in less than five minutes from the release. The Nubia Z7 is only one among three phones being put out on the market by ZTE.

The Z7 is quite a high-end phone with heavy performance specs and might just be an upcoming contender for the Samsung S5, the HTC One M8 and the LG G3.
