The Nokia 6, Samsung's 2017 series Galaxy A7, A5 and A3, and Asus' Zenfone AR, Zenfone 3 Zoom were displayed at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2017 last month in Las Vegas. This month, phone-makers reportedly have much bigger plans as the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2017 is set to commence on February 27 to March 2 in Barcelona, Spain. Here are the top five highly-anticipated smartphones that will be launched later this month.

Huawei P10 Series

The Huawei P10 is expected to boast of an all-metal body with a 5.5-inch QHD (2560x1440p) AMOLED display. It will likely come with the HiSilicon Kirin 960 CPU, which is said to clock close to 2.3GHz speed. It will have 4GB/6GB RAM, 64GB/128GB of internal storage, and a 3100mAh battery. The device will supposedly run an Android Nougat OS.

The P10 is expected to sport dual-camera as well. Just like its predecessor, the P9 will apparently have a second-generation 12MP snapper. The camera was reportedly co-engineered by world's renowned camera pioneer, Leica.

LG G6

Last month, LG's Display division had announced the development of world's first QHD+ LCD screen for smartphones having an 18:9 aspect ratio. These screens are expected to be integrated into the company's flagship mobile G6 series.

LG has revealed that the G6 would have a wide screen, water-proof design, long lasting battery and a high quality camera with a wider angle view of the field. The LG G6 is also expected to come with an advanced Iris scanner, wireless charging, and contact less payment (LG Pay). Unlike the IR-based scanner found on Samsung's infamously retired Galaxy 7, LG device's ocular-based biometric technology will be able to use the front-facing camera for possible reduction of false rejection ratio and more accurate reading of the Iris.

TCL-made BlackBerry Mercury

TCL, BlackBerry's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) partner, recently teased about its upcoming smartphone, DTEK70 code-named Mercury, which is expected to be officially unveiled on February 25. The BlackBerry Mercury is expected to come with BlackBerry's signature QWERTY physical keypad along with a fingerprint sensor. It will run on the Android Nougat operating system out-of-the-box.

The device is expected to sport a Qualcomm's Snapdragon 625 CPU and will have 3GB of RAM. It will have an 18MP rear-facing camera and an 8MP front snapper. It is also said to have a Type-C USB port.

Nokia 8 (aka Nokia P1)

Nokia's flagship device, the Nokia 8, which is also known as Nokia P1, is expected to come with top-of-the-line hardware. It will be unveiled later this month in Barcelona, Spain. It is said to be available in two variants based on the system configuration.

The first one will have the Snapdragon 830 chipset, 6GB of RAM, and 64/128GB of internal storage, while the other variant will come with a Snapdragon 821 quad-core and a 4GB RAM. The device will reportedly have a 24 MP OIS, EIS primary camera, and a 12 MP front-shoot. The Nokia 8 will reportedly boast of Carl Zeiss-branded cameras which resemble the company's flagship Lumia series.

Lenovo's Moto G5 series:

The Moto G5 will be launched in two variants; the Moto G5 and G5 Plus. Both top-end smartphones apparently share the same hardware with regards to the camera, RAM, storage, and connectivity. However, the Moto G5 is expected to come with a 5.0-inch full HD (1920x1080p) display backed with 3,000 mAh battery while the latter is expected to feature a bigger 5.5-inch full HD screen and a 3,100mAh battery.

Moreover, Moto G5 and G5 Plus are expected to feature a 13MP rear camera, a 5MP front-facing one, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 octa-core CPU which is backed by 4GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. Both devices will apparently boast of Turbo Charging and advanced Bluetooth technology.
