Richard Kane, technology researcher at the University of Bath recently gave his opinion on how mobile phones will advance. “ I predict that very soon all the requirements of the modern way of life will be served by phones…technology is getting smaller thanks to things like mini electrical components and people are becoming ever more mobile, so it make sense that people want to carry their life in their pocket”.
Modern phones have highly-functional MP3 players built in, and you can now store more songs than you could possible ever listen to. Camera technology in phones is advancing at an alarming rate also, with some of the best phones offering up to 10 mega pixels and some even now provide optical zoom. You can even browse the internet as easily as you would do on our home computer, and in fact the number of people using their phones to surf is increasing by around 100% each year.
Many people have argued that a phone will never be able to match the benefits of a large screen that home computers and televisions provide. Nokia have silenced these critics to some extent recently when they bought out a phone that could project a screen size of up to 45 inches onto the nearest wall. It seems like it’s out with home entertainment units and cable ties, and in with nana processers and micro fan accessories, powering some of the most power bits of kit the world has ever seen.
