In the new era of technology, mobile phones are the fascinating technology we use. From just a medium of communication to being one of our best mates, cell phones have come a long way. Now, it is very had to spend even a single day without using your mobile.
With 2018 ahead of us, its good time to take a look at the new development and trends in the cell phone technology, and how they could change the way we interact with the world around us and each other. This work delves into some of the technological improvements that have occurred in the sector over the past years.
1. Flexible Designs
There is an undeniable success of Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and Edge says much about the consumer demand and new form factors. Into a single cohesive unit, Samsung has managed to fuse function with style. The outcome is a classy look and easy to operate a phone. Such technologies are just but a hint of what is expected in the future.
2. Improvement in Battery Life and Capacity
According to sampled consumer surveys around the globe, it proves that low battery life of the outgoing smartphone technology is one of the single annoyance users have to deal with on a daily basis. The year 2016 saw the introduction of the 3000 mAh territory, and we expect the trend to continue moving forward. Besides, a battery of high capacity needs long hours to charge, and that's exactly why fast charging technology such as Qualcomm in Samsung Galaxy Note 8 is my favorite. Moreover, this technology speeds up the charging process by up to 75%.
Wireless charging technology is slowly being adopted. Fairly ubiquitous, the technology based on Qi has shaped how devices clients simply lay their phones on a charging pad. Also, the Watt Up promise a wire-free charging system.
Despite the promising changes in the battery capacity and life, one thing is clear: The current Li-ion is not able to keep up with advancement in the processing power. Thus, Introduction of the Sodium-ion may be the real game changer.
3. Wireless Networks
With a planned improvement in the LTE standard, there is a likely hood to see a great change in bandwidth with peak data rates up to 4 Gbps for downloads and 2 Gbps for upload. Already, the advanced LTE-A has been rolled out, though in a few Asian countries. This has been made possible, thanks to "carrier aggregation" technology.
Carrier aggregation has simplified the way devices able to send and receive data from different frequencies. Some advancement in the wireless technology has been rolled out including 4GX and VoLTE (Voice over LTE). Just as the name suggests, the technology will allow users to transmit their voice of the LTE instead of the current cell phone networks.
Being the real game changer after the launch of Samsung Galaxy Note 8, a lot is expected to happen and if you are a lover of technology be on the watch for the new advancement.
