Samsung Reveals Ambitious Plans for the Future of Mobile

Samsung could easily be considered the king of the smartphone industry at this point in time, with the highest selling Android devices on the market, and a main supplier for the components that help to sell their biggest rival, Apple, it’s easy to see why they are at the top.

Samsung seem to want to remain at the top too, and they plan to do that by completely innovating the market, and according to new announcements from their first analyst day event in eight years, they have many ambitious plans for the future of mobile.

The new plans from Samsung include a variety of improvements in smartphone technology that will take place over the next four to five years, bridging the gap from now till a much brighter future of mobile.

Firstly, Samsung want to keep pushing higher definition screens into our hands, and they are planning on releasing smartphones with a pixel density as high as 560 PPI by the end of next year. This would be a 400% improvement from the industry standard 7 years ago.

Samsung even plan to take this further and introduce 4K displays, or what Samsung are now calling UHD (Ultra High Definition) by 2015 or 2016.

On top of this, Samsung plans to break more barriers to create a better vision for the future of mobile. To do this, they will work to create new solutions and technologies for mobile RAM, application processors, image sensors, camera equipment, and displays.

Their end goal by 2017 will be a smartphone device that is powered by an energy efficient 64-bit Samsung AP, contains a 4K display, a higher quality isocell camera, and on top of this, the display will be truly flexible and foldable.

This is a lot of information to take in, but I’m glad we are seeing Samsung’s plans for the future of mobile, and I hope we will see some great innovations from the Android front-runner.

I don’t particularly think there is any need for mobile displays with a higher resolution than they are already today, and I think the majority of smartphone users would prefer more research to be put into better battery life instead of display quality.

Other than that though, the future of Samsung is certainly looking to be quite exciting.
