Samsung mentioned that they're preparing a smartphone with a QHD AMOLED screen (2560 x 1440 resolution). Some believe that this will be the display on the Samsung Galaxy S5, but it's all speculation at this point.
Samsung apparently also confirmed that it plans on launching smartphones with UHD (4K) displays with a resolution of 3480 x 2160 in the future, which would result in a pixel density of more than 700 ppi, making it suitable for phablets.
No time frame was offered, but it's likely we won't see these UHD displays make it to phones any time soon. Samsung basically said that UHD displays will come to smartphones somewhere down the line, so it probably won't be before 2015 that UHD phone displays become the next big thing.
In non-cell phone related news, Samsung also announced that they will be releasing AMOLED television sets with UHD SHD resolutions (7680 x 4320).

If you don't like how your home screen looks like on top of your phone's UI, you can always look for a launcher to customize it and one of the latest to come out is Chameleon Launcher. Last week, the launcher was introduced and many liked it and there are those who were not impressed as well.
Well, if you are an Android stock fan, chances are that whatever launcher falls on your lap won't impress you, whereas if you like to customize your phone and get those little extra features, launchers are the way to go. There are also those who think that the Chameleon is already quite outdated; it's really a matter of preference.
The Chameleon Launcher will work on devices that run on Android 3.2 or higher and for a little less than $4, you can have a version that works both on a phone or a tablet.
