The historical year was 2007, Apple launched their iconic iPhone — its iOS operating system (i.e. slide, swipe, tap, pinch, etc.) & 3.5-inch touchscreen released the stranglehold of RIM's Blackberry on the World Wide Mobile Federation.
Apple introduced an "all-in-one" mobile device — providing its users w/ a multi-touch screen and a virtual keyboard. Google's Android and the iPhone's functionality along w/ it's "ultra-sleek" designs eventually buried RIM's BB — both help revolutionize the smartphone industry in a hostile take-over of epic proportions.
Several years later, gadget geeks & smartphone fanatics are still waiting for the next big thing...the next leap forward in mobile design.
Thinner, lighter — virtually unbreakable |
Perhaps the Samsung Youm will be the next to revolutionize the smartphone industry...perhaps.
The OLED display uses an indestructible and extremely thin plastic instead of glass — making the screen pliable, bendable and almost unbreakable screen.
Samsung Youm — the next mobile revolution? Only time will tell. |
Currently, the top-selling smartphones are pretty much equal in their features — they all perform at a "high-level" and Blackberry has since been regulated to playing catch-up.
Mobile-tech giants are now racing against time to develop the next "Blackberry" or "iPhone/Android" and the race towards innovation has only begun...
...to be continued.
