Here's an infographic that won't necessarily show you which products were the best, but will certainly let you know which ones had gadget aficionados the most intrigued. Webtrends sorted it out for us, measuring the buzz of the event by calculating mentions on Twitter, blogs and other social media between February 13 and February 17.

Even though Samsung's Galaxy Tab 10.1 was out-buzzed by the LG Optimus Pad, with the help of its second-generation Galaxy S II smartphone, Samsung was the top most-buzzed brand during MWC week, just like it was during CES 2011. Coming in second was Google (not surprising, due to all the talk about Android on smartphones and tablets), with HTC in third.

Breaking it down into days, Samsung and HTC fought it out on Monday for the lead buzz spot, with Samsung victorious at 32%. Tuesday, HTC fought back with with its 7-inch 1.5GHz HTC Flyer tablet, winning the day with 30.8% of the buzz.

Notice that while tablets grabbed 47.7% of the buzz, all those iPad competitors were still eclipsed by the 52.3% buzz for smartphones, which in the past have been the only buzzed-about device at MWC:
