The dawn of a new year brings excitement to techies out there as they look forward to the upcoming set of the next generation of gadgets and mobile devices. It's not even halfway into the first quarter of 2016, but the anticipation is already high, especially, with the 2016 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona just around the corner.

And, two of the much talked about flagship phones are the Samsung Galaxy S7 and the HTC One M10. So, which one is better? We'll let you decide with this round-up of rumored details, thus far.

HTC One M10

"HTC is preparing its most advanced smartphone ever, keen on recapturing lost market share after stumbling with successive annual flagships that underwhelmed the marketplace," VentureBeat wrote. "Details of the upcoming handset, codenamed Perfume and widely believed to be sold at retail as the One M10, were shared by a person who was granted hands-on time with a prototype."

According to the report, the upcoming device, codenamed Perfume, will be sporting the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow and HTC's Sense 8.0 UI. The display will have a screen size of 5.1-inch and a resolution of 1440 x 2560 QHD.

The One M10 will be equipped with the Snapdragon 820 chipset with 4GB of RAM, and Adreno 530 graphics. It has 32GB of storage and it supports microSD card slot for expanded memory.

Some of the rumored features include a fingerprint scanner and a 12-UltraPixel resolution rear camera with laser autofocus and optical image stabilization. As for price and release date, no confirmed details were released as of yet.

Fans who will be at the Mobile World Congress will be disappointed to know that the One M10 won't be in attendance and will be launched at a separate event later on.

The flagship phone from the Korean tech giant, on the other hand, has a confirmed launched date of Feb. 21, 2016, says Pocket-Lint. The Samsung Galaxy S7 will debut together with the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge and both devices could hit the stores by March.

The Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge will be sporting a 1440 x 2560 quad HD display with Super AMOLED technology. The S7 will have a 5.1-inch screen size, while the S7 Edge will be a bit bigger with a 5.5-inch display.

Both smartphones will feature an Exynos 8 Octa 8890 processors, with 4 powerful 2.3GHz cores and 4 1.6GHz efficient cores, says N4BB. The devices will be equipped with Snapdragon 820 chipsets, 4GB of RAM and storage options of 32GB and 64GB. The S7 and S7 Edge will have 12-megapixel cameras with f/1.7 aperture.
