Mobile phones (cell phones) have come a long way since their initial conception almost two decades ago.When mobile phones first hit the market they required a trolley to carry around only had buttons 1-9.Modern phones though do a whole lot more than they used to. You can receive email on your phone, take high-resolution pictures and even play online games against someone the other side of the world. However, the mobile phone is set to reach a whole new level of tech domination soon, and experts are predicting that it will be the only gadget we need to carry around with us.
John Moore, head of Advanced Technology at Cambridge University had outlined his vision for the future. “ 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 Deutsch connectors 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. The cameras in phones now are catching up normal digital cameras, and can offer mega pixel specs of up to 10.0, have a whole host of different shooting functions and again, can easily store whole photo albums. Internet browsing has been made very easy on the latest phones, and many websites have started creating ‘phone-friendly’ versions of their sites in response to the growth in phone browsing.
Lots of technology enthusiasts have stated that whitest phones have come on a long way, they cannot compete with large TVs or computer screen displays. 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.
