In 2021, smartphone manufacturers will focus on increasing processor speed and battery life, creating wireless charging sources, improving screen performance, and providing the phone with various features. Such trends were highlighted by the director of the information and analytical agency Telecom daily Denis Kuskov in a conversation with the agency “Prime”.
Major tech players will be rolling out wireless charging, ditching cables, and offering multiple-station charging options, he said.
In addition, frameless smartphones will be a priority, due to which it will be possible to enlarge the screen, its full color and completeness of information presentation.
Kuskov also noted the trend of converting gadgets, which currently perform the functions of a camera, payment device, and others, into a source for collecting medical information. “So, in Apple Watch there is a function for measuring oxygen levels, now using various devices you can take blood pressure measurements, as well as conduct an electrocardiogram – so far in a somewhat clumsy way, but this issue is slowly being resolved, “the specialist concluded.
Previously, specialists called the high cost and abuse of 5G the main disadvantages of current smartphones. They were also not satisfied that device manufacturers were participating in an unofficial camera race, seeking to release a smartphone with a large number of lenses. Among other things, the authors were upset by the fast charging power of many smartphones, which stopped near the 20-watt mark.
