9 Predictable Future Phone Technologies

Going by the current trend in smart phones technology, some of the obvious technologies that may surface in the near future could be:
Foldable design
Mobile companies are already floating the idea and coming up with beta versions of foldable smartphones. While issues like battery performance, scratch on screen and durability are yet to be seen but considering rage of wearable devices, a foldable smartphone projected as the hybrid solution could be a reality.
Wireless charging
A few smart phones available in the market today are already using this technology. Refinement may make it the norm for most of the smartphones. Users might not need to carry lead to charge their phones. Future may see a central magnetic device plugged in to a switchboard and emitting magnetic waves that recharges all the smartphones in the vicinity.
A faster data transfer
As the next change, USB 3 cable is going to replace the existing USB 2 cable in smart phones. It will result in speedy data transfer between computer and mobile. Even the wireless data transfer between smart phones and computer is going to be quicker than it is today.
An OLED display screen
Mobile phones in future are going to be smarter in the way it consume power. Future will see influx of foldable screens fitted with OLED display screen. It will consume less power and give a vivid and bright picture than normal LCD or LED screens.
Slimmer mobile phones
Companies competing in the premium segment are hell bent to offer slimmer smart phones than others. It means mobile manufacturer companies will be doing away with non — removable batteries. Fixed battery offers saves space which can be used to fit in the circuitry and a slimmer and compact mobile can be designed.
Non-expandable storage
Just like fixed battery, doing away with external storage MMC cards will further save space. Removing Mobile SD card from a smartphone is supposed to improve the performance as most of the times, error in storage device creates problems in the mobile phone.
A smarter digital assistant
Useful apps like health apps, apps for financial planning, social communicator, personal planner and organizer are going to make life better. Apart from the proprietary apps by the mobile phone makers, even the native apps will get the edge. Developers will benefit from the latest OS, Android M for devices running on Google OS and iOS 9 for iPhones and iPads.
Evolved E-wallet
Smartphone users may not need to carry the wallet for shopping, dining or for any kind of money transaction at all. Mobile companies may offer payment solution which completely does away with third party payment model and ultimately benefits the users.
Self-charging feature
Smartphones rear cover may be coated with thin layers of solar plates to charge mobile battery. Although there are features and apps that kill the background processes to save the battery, future may also see new technology powering self-charging of a smartphone in case of an emergency.
Mobile giants like Apple and Samsung will continue to introduce innovative technologies, smartphone arena may also see the surprise entry from the new and less known companies alike. Apart from two most popular operating systems for the smartphones, Google Android and Apple iOS, future may also see new operating systems too.

How ad-free subscriptions could solve Facebook

At the core of Facebook’s “well-being” problem is that its business is directly coupled with total time spent on its apps. The more hours you pass on the social network, the more ads you see and click, the more money it earns. That puts its plan to make using Facebook healthier at odds with its finances, restricting how far it’s willing to go to protect us from the harms of over use. The advertising-supported model comes with some big benefits, though. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has repeatedly said that “We will always keep Facebook a free service for everyone.” Ads lets Facebook remain free for those who don’t want to pay, and more importantly, for those around the world who couldn’t afford to. Ads pay for Facebook to keep the lights on, research and develop new technologies, and profit handsomely in a way that attracts top talent and further investment. More affluent users with more buying power in markets like the US, UK, and Canada command higher ad prices, effectively

South Korea aims for startup gold

Back in 2011, when South Korea won its longshot bid to host the 2018 Winter Olympics, the country wasn’t widely recognized as a destination for ski and snow lovers. It wasn’t considered much of a tech startup hub either. Fast forward seven years and a lot has changed. For the next 10 days, the eyes of the world will be on the snowy slopes of PyeongChang. Meanwhile, a couple of hours away in Seoul, a burgeoning startup scene is seeing investments multiply, generating exits and even creating a unicorn or two. While South Korea doesn’t get a perfect score as a startup innovation hub, it has established itself as a serious contender. More than half a billion dollars annually has gone to seed through late-stage funding rounds for the past few years. During that time, at least two companies, e-commerce company Coupang and mobile-focused content and commerce company Yello Mobile, have established multi-billion-dollar valuations. To provide a broader picture of how South Korea stacks

Phoenix OS is (another) Android-as-a-desktop

Google Android may have been developed as a smartphone operating system (and later ported to tablets, TVs, watches, and other platforms), but over the past few years we’ve seen a number of attempts to turn it into a desktop operating system. One of the most successful has been  Remix OS , which gives Android a taskbar, start menu, and an excellent window management system. The Remix OS team has also generated a lot of buzz over the past year, and this week the operating system gained a lot of new alpha testers thanks to a  downloadable version of Remix OS  that you can run on many recent desktop or notebook computers. But Remix OS isn’t the only game in town.  Phoenix OS  is another Android-as-desktop operating system, and while it’s still pretty rough around the edges, there are a few features that could make it a better option for some testers. Some background I first discovered Phoenix OS from  a post in the Remix OS Google Group , although I’ve also found mentions of th

What will a driverless future actually look like?

There is a growing consensus that autonomous vehicles (AVs) will soon be a reality. The debate today centers not on whether, but how soon, AVs will be commonplace on our roads. But for all the buzz surrounding AVs, many details about what a driverless future will look like remain unclear. Which business models will work best for the commercialization of AVs? Which AV usage models will be most appealing for consumers? Which companies are best positioned to win in this new market? These are big questions, and no certain answers can be given at this stage. Nonetheless, it is valuable to reflect, in a concrete way, on how this transformative technology might develop. This article will present some conjectures. The end of private car ownership? At a high level, two possible paradigms seem most likely for how society will use AVs. The first is private AV ownership. Under this model, individuals or families would continue to own their own vehicles and use them to get around. As
