Amid much fanfare, South Korean conglomerate Samsung finally took the wraps off its new flagship smartphone, Galaxy S3, in London last week.

For its sixth-generation iPhone, presumably called iPhone 5, Apple is reportedly building a device with a thinner and lighter frame, but a bigger 4-inch screen.

What are the features that we want included in the new device?

It was definitely out of the ordinary: Real news from Samsung, on a Sunday morning? But there it was on Twitter, in black and white: Destination: tgeltaayehxnx.

At a time when chances of a fall release for the next generation Apple iPhone look stronger than a summer launch as expected before, a report surfaced late Friday saying that the highly anticipated smartphone will feature in-cell touch panels produced by Sharp and Toshiba.
