Not expecting anything beyond the curve, if you've observed the patterns.

Tick: iPhone 4 > SGS2 > OG Note
Tock: iPhone 4S > SGS3 > Note 2
Tick: iPhone 5 > SGS4 > Note 3
Tock: iPhone 5S > SGS5 > Note 4
... wait for the next "Tick"...
TICK: iPhone 6 > SGS6 > Note 5

So yeah I believe:
LG's made 2 great phones (G2 and G3).
Motorola's made only 3 good phones (Atrix 4G, Droid 3, Moto G).
Apple's made 3 great phones (3GS+ i4 + i5).
Samsung's made 4 great phones (SGS2, NOTE, SGS4, NOTE3).
HTC makes a lot of great phones but most are flawed. The really innovative one's in history I believe are TyTNII, TouchPRO, HD2, One X 4G.
--no Google phones or Nokia's included in this list--

(And these phones had great designs HTC HD7, HTC Arrive, HTC Legend, Motorola RAZR, Motorola CLIQ, LG G Flex).
