Future Smartphones
With tough competition in the market,
Smartphones
are getting better and better. They are getting more powerful with
sleeker, thinner and bigger bodies. All this is fine but they are even
getting boring . Apple gets it from Samsung while Samsung turns back at
Apple. HTC imitates them both in different ways while Chinese makers
borrow from everyone. It becomes a sadistic circle then.
Phones were once used to contact and communicate with distant people
but now it is not the only usage of it. With advance in technology
phones are becoming most important for mankind. But considering the
design of today’s phones they are becoming incredibly conservative. The
phone industry is one such industry that can be measured empirically. On
considering a phone to be the best, the following attributes are noted
the most –
- How fast is the phone?
- What is its maximum storage capacity?
- How big are the display and its resolution?
- How sharp is it?
In total this turns out to be the comfortable space to compete in.
Everyone would definitely accept that four is better than two and so it
doesn’t seem to be difficult to convince people.
With all this doing well, on looking at the design innovation of
today’s phones they seem to have replicating the same old fashion that
is turning out to be boring. Just recollect the last time when you were
taken aback by a design of a phone. As said by Apple’s design genius
Jony Ive, it is relatively easy to do something that is different and
new but to do something that is genuinely better is difficult. And it is
this genuinely better is what not many companies can do better.
With two 1080p displays the all new Gionee W900 is really a
magnificent designed phone when compared with the present corny mobile
design market. Yet the form factor remains the same which is a bit
non-convincing. So to get rid of this monotonous phone world let’s have a
look at the emerging future phone design concepts that though cannot be
promised of how practical they might be working out but yes they seem
to be interesting.
What might be everyone’s likes?
Lets tour on the design concepts that might really amaze every Smartphone wisher.
The forgotten clamshell designed phones
Slider designed phones:
The once considered chic and stylish clamshell and slider designed
phones are now not doing well and the reason may be the need to have
larger display which is why the flip phone design were bid goodbye by
manufacturers. But how about considering a slider design that opens up
to give a larger display? This really does make sense were people would
love to have a slider Smartphone that can open up to give larger display
rather than carrying a Smartphone that is bigger in size. The inner
section of the slider Smartphone can get aligned to the outer section
and together they can serve to give a larger display, thereby ending up
in giving a portable chic device.

Flexible/Bendable Display phones:
Next is the upcoming flexible and bendable display, yes we can expect
some innovations with this design as well. Consider a phone design that
has a sleek and flexible display that can be wrapped into a tiny
compartment. Isn’t refreshing to think about? Well the
Samsung One concept
is the one that showed us how it would be if a lustrous pen transforms
into a large screen phone. The sleek pen easily fits into our pockets
and when the 6-inch flexible screen is pulled out it turns out to be a
full-fledged mobile device. It also makes it possible for the user to
know all the updates without even pulling out the screen and for this
one has to view notifications that are displayed on the embedded
touchscreen of the concept pen’s body.
The below image shows out the concept and the question here is how
effective will the battery be? Yet looking interesting the hope of every
innovative Smartphone lovers is to have this concept reach the
mainstream markets very soon.

Smartwatch Concept:
The current hype is the smartwatches and their increasing numbers
where every big company is trying to do their best in giving out the
perfect smartwatche. Apple and Google getting into this product
creation, the craze for these smartwatches are increasing day by day and
so are the manufactures. How cool it would be for a smartwatch to do
everything similar to your Smartphone, it with a projector that serves
as a keyboard.
Apple’s iPhone palm concept phone is one such example for it.
This device from Apple is truly unconventional and is something that
goes about with Apple’s weight loss therapy. There is no need for you to
carry this phone in your pockets as it can be strapped around your
wrist. This wearable device gets a projector which projects the normal
homescreen on your palm while navigation can be done with your fingers
on the projected display. There’s a small touchscreen on the device
with some notifications and shortcuts. On the whole this looks to be
innovative and witty.

Flexible materials can also be used to build the smartwatches.
Nowadays, though not commercialized widely, we see lot of
flexible/bendable display concepts. So the wearable devices can be
strapped on your wrists that when unfolded turns out to be a complete
smartphone. With many such concepts touring online it makes us hope that
someday they might become practical. Not just being a tech product
these wearable devices can also turn out to be fashionable accessories.
It looks like
LG and Oppo are trying to show some innovations in their design. Like
LG G3’s button arrangement and
Oppo N series swivel camera
are some of the notable design evolutions. So something similar is what
we can expect with the camera module arrangement on the future phones.
Check out the
Spinner Windows phone’s modular camera module, the phone with a metallic frame really looks chic and canny.

What we don’t like to have?
With having done with what is wanted in our future Smartphone lets
also consider what is definitely or otherwise at least not wanted in our
future smartphones.
Definitely a phablet with more than 5.5-inches seems to be a bit
larger but this doesn’t mean that we would want a bigger tablet with
detachable Smartphone. This looks meaningless. For this it is better to
manage with slightly larger phablet.
A bigger tablet with detachable phone is not what we might want
Smartwatches are really cool, but this doesn’t mean that we would
like to have something more sleek and tiny to talk on. I am sure people
would not like to talk over with devices fitted to their finger rings.
And also additional dongles or clips controlling phones seem ridiculous.
So if future Smartphones are created considering people’s choice with
innovative design’s it might wonder struck us to carry on wandering
with futuristic smartphones.
