Smartphones with these features will be more complete next year

2021 was a good year for smartphones and we saw acceptable improvements in these products. Companies unveiled a variety of products from down to flagship and folding. Their camera quality has improved and some companies have decided to support longer software for their products, but there is still room for improvement in this market.

No matter how much we progress, there is still room for improvement. So the handset market will continue to grow and improve next year. In the following, we want to take a look at the features that can make the phones more complete, so stay tuned to Digito.

Better software support

Samsung announced last year that some of its products will receive up to three years of operating system updates and will release security updates for up to four years. These products include flagships, some Galaxy A series handsets and clamshell phones.

This year, some companies such as OnePlus, Nokia, Vivo, Oppo and Xiaomi took the same approach, but most of them used this issue only as a publicity stunt because these updates are only released for flagships.

Although such software support for flagships will benefit users, most people will buy mid-range and low-end smartphones, which is why companies need to pay attention to these products as well. So if the support time for phones like the Redmi Note series increases in 2022, they will become more complete devices.

Ability to buy smartphones with a charger in the box

With the introduction of the iPhone 12 series, Apple introduced a new trend to the world of technology: the lack of a charger inside the box under the pretext of protecting the environment! This approach was followed by other companies, including Samsung and Google, and Apple removed the charger from the box of its older phones.

But not all companies did that, and even gave their users a choice. For example, the Xiaomi May 11 was launched in the Chinese market in two versions, with and without a charger, and were priced the same. If companies take such an approach next year, the handsets will be more complete.

Better support for fast charging

In the world of smartphones, we are faced with various fast charging protocols, from USB-PD to Quick Charge. The same approach has caused some phones to be incompatible with some chargers and users to experience very low charging speeds.

Due to the fact that charger protocols such as PPS and Quick Charge have received a lot of attention in recent years, companies can only go to them so that there is no problem in terms of incompatibility of phones with chargers.

In addition, companies like Google and Apple need to move to higher charging speeds. Although not all companies need to go for a fast charge of 120, 100 or even 67 watts, they can provide users with a minimum charge speed of more than 30 watts. With such an approach, users will get more complete smartphones next year.

Remove 2 megapixel camera from smartphones

The latter is the removal of dual-megapixel cameras from smartphones, which are used as macro cameras or depth detectors. Although companies want to put more camera sensors on the back panel of their products, such an approach does not benefit users.

Some smartphones, such as the OnePlus Rolling N200, the Redmi Note 10 series, and the Galaxy A12, use 2-megapixel cameras. Although these products, like the OnePlus Rolling N200, have several cameras on the back panel, in reality only their main camera is functional.

So we hope that this trend will disappear next year and that companies will no longer go for low-quality, unused 2-megapixel cameras. Instead of using triple or quad cameras for their products, companies can go for just two cameras, such as the main camera and ultra-wide or main and telephoto.

Certainly, the smartphone market will undergo a lot of changes next year, and new trends will be formed in this market. Leaving aside the high expectations for the completion of these devices, we come to another discussion: clamshell phones.

More companies will enter the market next year, and while Samsung remains the only one in the market, customer choice will increase and competition will intensify, which will benefit users.

Next year we have to wait for the release of new clamshell phones from Xiaomi, Oppo, Samsung and Huawei. As supply increases, their price decreases and more users can buy them. Of course, in 2022, we should not wait for the clamshell iPhone.
