Over the years, cell phones have come in many shapes and sizes. From bulky phones with antennas and handsets that flip open, to modern devices connected to the internet, the mobile phone market has evolved dramatically since its creation in 1973.
Since then, phones have become more than just gadgets that people can play around with. They’re our calendar, our camera. In a lot of ways, they’re core to how we live our lives, and we’ve developed a dependence on them.
But innovation in the smartphone industry seems to have reached its peak. Beyond flashy cameras and more efficient chips, phone makers are struggling to find ways to entice consumers the same way they did years ago.
“We now live in this kind of sea of smartphone sameness,” said Ben Wood, chief analyst at tech research firm CCS Insight.
“I think we have moved to a point now with mobile phones where people aren’t kind of rushing out saying, ‘I really want to get that new phone,’” Wood said. “In many cases, it’s almost a distress purchase.”
So what does the future hold for these computers in our pockets? Watch the video to learn more.

The future of Smartphones that drive us into singularity is Handless.
1) 6G Smart Glasses 2040
2) 9G Smart Headband (only for Brainlink implanted person)
3) 666 terabyte implanted brainchip.
While EU wants to take us back in time by bringing a removable battery 🙄 as if we keep phones for years 🙄
We need a new competitor like Blackberry or Lumia to come in and still the show from both Apple and Samsung.
Huawei's New Trifold as they call is one of my fav pick . It can unfold 2 times into tab and add keyboard for like a laptop exp. It's still new , but I'd like to see that tech mature. I don't like foldables because I have ipad and phone. But if my ipad dies and tech matures, I'd buy a trifold , I can skip a phone + tab cost and still draw.
If phones can push hate with social media algorithms, they can also push love and push education learning.
Just don’t run a bloated software on your smartphone. World is full of low level quality applications that are draining battery life
With Steve gone, the iPhone is clearly in trouble, although I adore this phone
I still have all phones and devices fire stick 3 coz hers and and smart tv and 2 other tvs if anyone wants them otherwise there getting dumped ✌️💯
Could blood biometric entangle your phone and you forever even it lost it can message to router to get back to you. The small needle like diabetic test strip can do entangle your biometric to phone and integrate with phone permanently
Sound field reorientatiom can change earth feature
Iphone and Samsung are behind in battery life…I see casio make long lasting watches…One+ long lasting batteries for their phones
Apple being scared to make major design changes just shows the company isn’t confident in a variety of things and it shows complacency (by all means I understand) but consumers will flock to buy anything apple so if they make a foldable phone or make a big jump in design people would run to it merely for the sake of change! -iphone 14 pro max user who sees no need to upgrade to a newer iphone for the next 5-7 years (considering getting a z fold 6 for something fresh)
To be fair, most of what the industry is now is just “copy whatever Apple and Samsung are doing” and thats it. People know what they want, the market knows what they want, the point of making gimmicky phones just for them to not sell is unfortunately not a thing.
People are happier spending more on a more premium device that is supported and lasts longer, than a phone that quickly falls behind the requirements of the modern world. My second gen iPhone SE is still going strong, im not really missing anything from buying the newest iPhone or Galaxy, it would only be an inconvenience to buy a new phone.
Why dont they launch phone every 3 year instead of every year
Why everybody walking so damn fast at the start lmao
the next thing is ar and vr smartglasses
I always believed early iphones were made for businessmen as they felt premium and had a relatively small battery life( businessmen don't use their phone that much). Nowadays most people ask for high battery life. This indicates how much their lives are dependent on it.
Bring back Huawei
just market can answer what they want.
Figure out how to turn the screen into a mirror when it’s locked! The camera just doesn’t compare to a mirror
Apple needs to become a Cell phone service provider cause them releasing a phone every year is getting lame.
Make them lighter!
Cellphones are so boring now. I really miss the Sony Ericsson Line Up of innovative phones
After Huawei ban smartphone innovation and 5G died with it.
There’s a limit to the way an egg can be fried. There are just that many features a smartphone can have and things it can do .
Small 5 inch screen phones I need now. This 7 inch screen is big in length to handle in one hand. Miss those 2018 phones.
Originallu Nokia had the $$$, customers & tech to become even bigger than what they were … unfortunately like Kodak they were too stuck in their old ways and unwilling to innovate
I think the next iteration of smartphone progress will be based on battery life. It is not about 100 000 mAh battery, it is about technologies of self charging to smartphone. The manufactor Garmin has the techonology "Solar" which makes self charging of device from the sun which help smartwatch boost their time of work. On my opinion these technologies will be future of smartphone.
