Smartphone is definitely one of the top electronic Gadgets that have changed the world. UBS analyst John Hodulik believe people want high resolution, high speed and smartphones are providing the same to consumer.
People store private and personal information on their smartphones, and use the devices for e-mails, social networking, banking and payments, consumption and creation of information, content, entertainment and media, navigation, taking pictures, and of course, talking and texting.
I did a study on what’s in the future for smartphones to find how smart phones will look like after 5 years and what amazing things will they be able to do?
Top 9 features of future smart phones
1. According to Ramon Llamas, a senior research analyst at IDC Mobile Devices Technology and Trends, smartphones will stay around the 3.7-inch to 4.3-inch display size.
2. Near field communication, or NFC, allows you to make simplified transactions, data exchanges, and connections by touching your phone to an object or another phone. Google has big plans to make NFC even more useful in its next major Android update, known as Ice Cream Sandwich. One of Google's goals with the Ice Cream Sandwich update is to enable what it calls "0-click interaction," which will let you set up peer-to-peer connections via NFC simply by putting two phones back to back.
3. Augmented reality is another feature we've seen on a few apps here and there, but IDC's Llamas predicts that augment reality will become a standard, everyday feature in the phones of tomorrow. Augmented Reality, is another feature we already see in apps like Layar and Google Goggles, but is likely to be significantly improved. The best augmented reality will quickly recognize the visual input from a phone’s camera and quickly provide information about what you see, such as the direction of the nearest restroom. The info is based on GPS information, ie: knowing exactly where you are.
4. Smart phones going to have faster and faster chips.Smartphones will have the processing power of laptops. In June, 2010, DoCoMo started offering the Toshiba T-01A in Japan, a super-fast phone that uses an advanced Qualcomm chip. By 2011, there will be 1.5 Ghz quad core Tegra 3 chips for smartphones and tablets By 2013, there will Nvidia Maxwell chips.Nvidia shared its Tegra roadmap, indicating that its quad-core chips will be at least 50 times faster by 2014.faster chips and faster download means more download data. This is already a challenge to Telcos and they are stopping unlimited data plan by introducing data throttling. To use smartphones at its full potentials mobile Telcos need to change business process and strategies.
5. Flexible, thin Amoled Display will be another key contributor. There will be various technologies and options for large displays that can be rolled up.HP and Arizona state university have Demonstrated flexible displays that can be rolled up This should be on the market in 2012 and in mass production in 2013. Samsung already confirmed that latest by 2013 Samsung smartphones will have flexible displays.Displays should be also be damage resistance to the scratches, drops, and bumps of everyday use
Here is an excellent video on Paper computer shows flexible future for smartphones and tablets .
6. Google Wallet, which was launched recently in New York and San Francisco. In effect Google Wallet will be an app on your smartphone which replaces the need for you to carry cash, checks, or cards of all variety (debit, credit, and store). You’ll link your card to Google Wallet and then use your smartphone as means of payment using NFC (Near Field Communication). Already being trialled in two large U.S. cities, Google Wallet could, if the search giant has its way, be everywhere. Smartphones are replacing the need for a host of other gadgets and becoming a necessity rather than a luxury with each passing month.
7. Smartphones with built in picoprojectors exist now. Smartphone SH-06C has a DLP projector brightness of 9 lumens and a resolution of 640 × 360 pixels, and is equipped with a 3.7-inch touch screen resolution of 480 × 854.
MIT Technology Review reports that researchers in Germany have developed the world's thinnest "pico" video projector. The device is just six millimeters thick, but it produces images that are 10 times brighter than would normally be possible with such a small device. The new lens system is small enough to be incorporated into a slim smart phone.
8. Easy Recharging
Battery life is a major concern for smartphone users. Duracell joined forces with U.S.-Israeli company Powermat Ltd. Their joint venture, Duracell Powermat, is producing ultra-thin recharging mats. Duracell plans to equip public places as well as cars, homes and offices with the special surfaces, allowing mobile phones to charge wirelessly by simply placing them on the wired mat. They want to be everywhere in five years.
Smart phones users can expect energy-efficiency to be the greatest screen advancement. Screens are generally what suck a smart phone battery dry, and future screens may incorporate new technologies to reduce energy consumption and promote battery life. You can read my article on latest discovery which can enable to smart phones to have ever lasting battery by 2015.
9. Eco friendly smart phones with 100% Recyclable housing , Eco-Friendly accessories, Certified Carbon Neutral smartphone & Zero use of hazardous chemical substances .
By 2013, more people will access the web through their smartphones than their computers, and by 2020, mobile phones will be the primary Internet devices for most people in the world. In the future, smartphones will always be connected to the web, through ubiquitous wireless networks (Wi-Fi, Wi-Max and to a lesser extent, through 4G cellular network).
