Bad news for those expecting Samsung to unveil the next Galaxy S smartphone at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2015, as the South Korean company plans to reveal the device during its own press event after the trade fair.

Italian journalist Flavio claims he's been told by a reliable source that Samsung will launch the Galaxy S5 at a dedicated event, which is set to take place in London, UK.

For the time being, the only information regarding the Galaxy S5's official reveal point to a mid-March date, but more details will probably surface soon after Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2014 closes its gates in early March.

As always, take the information with a grain of salt, but judging for our previous experience, a mid-March Samsung Galaxy S5 even is very possible indeed. Stay tuned for more info on this one.
