This year's high-end offering from Samsung, the Galaxy S6 is firmly on top of our weekly interest chart, garnering more than twice the number of hits of the second-placed Galaxy A7. The top-of-the-line A-series model, on the other hand, shot straight to number 2 upon its debut to the chart. Little brother Galaxy A5 completes the Top 3.

The Top 10 trending phones chart is a recap list of the devices that gathered the most hits throughout the week. In other words, the chart represents the interests of the majority of you, our visitors, and is an indication of what currently interests you.

Surprisingly, the HTC One M9 is falling down the chart and found itself in 5th this week. The Galaxy S6 edge, the winner's hotter-looking sibling, also doesn't fare too well and has dropped to a lowly 9th spot, whopping 7 places down from last week.

Meanwhile, the iPhone 6 has found a somewhat steady position in the second half of the chart, and the Asus Zenfone 5 has managed to climb in the top 10 amidst some extra price cutting that it recently received.

Another week passed and the MWC hype is slowly settling down. Everybody is still talking about the Samsung Galaxy S6 and the HTC One M9, but the news hasn’t been so completely overwhelmed and a lot of attention has been directed to other topics, like the ongoing Lollipop updates.

Android 5.1 was made official and builds are already available for a few Nexus devices. The new version brings a lot of goodies and addresses old irritations users had with earlier Lollipop builds. Meanwhile the industry is still busy, working on the Lollipop update for various smartphones.

Apple also made headlines with its "Spring forward" event, held on March 9. The rather pricy Apple watch was unveiled at the venue, as well as a new MacBook, thinner and lighter than ever and now in GOLD! The Xperia Z4 is still expected and as it turns out, so is an active version of the Galaxy S6, the LG G4 and not one, but two new HTC handsets – the HTC E9 and the One M9 Plus.
