2019 Smartphone Technology

We see new smartphone features every few months. See more Qi wireless charging, no 3.5mm port phone, infrared assisted face unlocking, glass back on entry level device, smaller teardrop shape notch. The following are some of the most compelling new technologies that will be available next year, and will also be the focus of mobile phone manufacturers to develop mobile phones.

Notch-free Displays

It is so common now that more people seem to hate it more, not to understand why it exists. Fortunately, we also see that the smartphone brand is one step ahead in full-screen design (without any gaps). For 2019, we expect full-screen design to be the focus of showing price declines.

Foldable mobile phone

Foldable smartphones have long been a concept, showing some proof-of-concept devices at international events. Things escalated rapidly in 2018, and Samsung and Huawei announced that their foldable smartphones will debut in 2019. At a recent event, Samsung demonstrated the working prototypes of collapsible smartphones and demonstrated how close they are to consumer devices. We may see the first foldable phone next year, but you should expect it to be a halo product with a stratospheric price tag.

Mobile phone support 5G

5G hardware is already ready Qualcomm has announced that they have more than 15 smartphone OEMs committed to launch 5G in 2019. Some of the vendors, including OnePlus, Oppo and Huawei, also announced 5G handsets in 2019.

Fingerprint on the Display

As a personal choice, we prefer capacitive fingerprint scanners on smartphones (just because they are faster and more accurate). However, the next generation of fingerprint scanners (embedded in smartphone displays) has become a reality. We have seen display scanners on Vivo NEX, Vivo V11 Pro, Huawei Mate 20 Pro and OnePlus 6T.

Three, Four & Five Rear Cameras

While Google Pixel 3 and iPhone XR continue to break the boundaries of a single smartphone camera, other companies have not stopped there. Dual cameras became the norm in 2018, and we also saw them in phones below 10k. For 2019, there have been rumors that Nokia phones have five rear cameras, and we expect more companies to follow this trend. You can expect all brands to develop phones with multiple cameras.

Ultra-fast charging

OnePlus users enjoy the ultra-fast Dash Charge feature. Many smartphones are also equipped with Qualcomm's QuickCharge 3.0. In 2018, we saw equipment surpassing and developing its own ultra-fast charging technology. Oppo shows you how to use SuperVooc charging on Find X and R17 Pro. Huawei Mate 20 Pro has Super Charge 2.0, OnePlus launches WarpCharge on OnePlus 6T McLaren, and ASUS ROG supports QuickCharge 4.0. These phones can charge your phone 0 to 50% in less than 30 minutes.

The above is the new technology that may appear on the 2019 mobile phone, and it is also the development direction of the future. We look forward to seeing more surprises.
