Modern cell phones have more memory, speed and power than previously imaginable, and countless apps have become available and monetized. We've seen incredible advancements in almost every aspect of the smartphone. For example, smartphone cameras take professional-quality pictures (including selfies) and stream music, videos and games effortlessly. Do you have lot of apps on your smartphone?

Wireless charging and foldable phones are already here, along with augmented reality, real-time language translation and increased 5G-enabled connectivity. The number of global smartphone users in 2023 is estimated at 6.9 billion and is expected to rise to 7.7 billion by 2027.

What's inside a smartphone - Modern smartphones are marvels of technology, and it is really impressive how much technology is crammed into such a compact device. Each smart phone contains many parts or components inside the case, including the processor or logic board, cameras (front and back), speakers, screen and LCD display, buttons, power connectors, a Wi-Fi antenna, SIM card, sensors (like the compass, gyroscope, GPS, proximity, ambient light), a haptic engine. This includes the screen, buttons, speakers, microphone, and camera. The processor and battery are also part of mobile hardware, but they're not as easy to see or hold. Most people think only of apps when they think about their phone's capabilities, but great apps wouldn't be possible without great mobile hardware. Were you aware of how many components are in a single smartphone?

The rise of artificial intelligence will continue, with AI-powered personal assistants (think Alexa and Siri), and mega-fast media downloading speeds aren't far behind. In addition, screen-only mobile devices – without ports or buttons – will force wide-range adoption of Bluetooth technology. Virtual Reality, floating images, expanding phones, the future holds lots of surprises. Are you looking forward to new tech innovations of the future?
