In 2018, we will witness the launch of various handsets from big brands globally. Some of them will come with specs like massive 8GB RAM, Dual camera! However, here are the best features every 2018 smartphones must have! Take a look!
1. Full Screen, 18:9 display ratio:
Without a doubt, the 18:9 display ratio will be the most popular trend of 2018. We can expect most of the upcoming handsets to sport a bezel-less display and 18:9 ratio. To name a few excellent flagships coming with this features, we have the famous duo from Samsung: Galaxy S9 and S9 Plus. Furthermore, we can also see another foldable screen like Samsung Galaxy X.
On the other hand, there is a high chance that all of the Chinese-based smartphones will sport the Fullscreen and 18:9 ratio. Additionally, many Chinese brands now apply this feature to their mid-range and budget-friendly handsets. To name a few, we have the upcoming Huawei Mate 10 Pro, Xiaomi Redmi Note 5.
2. Two-day Battery Life:
With more and more features and apps coming to our handsets, a long-lasting battery is a must! Regarding the battery longevity, we only see some handsets in 2017 with an impressive performance. One of them was the Huawei Mate 10 Pro. For now, we have seen many reports about Chinese smartphone manufacturers focusing on battery life development. Furthermore, we also saw the rumour about Apple trying to improve their next iPhone line’s battery life. For many Chinese handsets, 4000mAh battery seems to be a standard now. Which capacity will we see in 2018? Perhaps 5000mAh, or even bigger? Take a guess!
3. Beneath The Screen Finger Print Scanners:
With the rise of the bezel-less display, the fingerprint scanner also takes on a new form. From the standard placement on the front to a rear scanner, the possibility is endless. However, there is the news about the successful research about the beneath the screen finger-screen scanner. Furthermore, we caught the rumour about one flagship with this new scanner will appear at the CES 2018 event. There is a high chance it’s going to be a Vivo handset! Moreover, additional to Face ID, this brand new technology can become the standard security feature in most 2018 flagships!
4. Quality Camera Optics:
In 2017, most flagships come with a dual camera setup. Furthermore, most smartphone manufacturers were focusing on the sensors more than the lens. However, it’s about to change in 2018. We can expect more smartphones developers to put their money in the camera software and improve the lens. Some of the notable handsets we look forward to are the Huawei P11 with three camera setup or OPPO handset with AI camera system.
5. Headphone Jack:
Nowadays, we see that most handsets follow the trend of having Type C headphone jack. However, we think that having a 3.5mm headphone jack is still a better option. We already confirmed that Samsung Galaxy S9 would come with a 3.5mm headphone jack, so let’s hope many brands can take the lesson from this Korean tech giant. On the other hand, there is also the AirPods technology from Apple, but we will have to see if any smartphone companies will take on this system.
