The manufacturers they bet every year on this new functionality that differentiates them from others and that represents a before and after for the experience that a user gets with their phone. Millions of euros are invested in research and development to be able to bring something new to that smartphone that attracts the attention of users and its financial results at the end of the year are very positive to continue launching those star features that we all want to have.
We never know what we are going to have next year or if that novelty in Android N will have its impact or if that new Galaxy S will be the one we were hoping for, but there are certain features that have already become indispensable today when a few years ago it might look crazy or that there was not much reason to be that its use became something everyday. There are many other novelties that are still present in our day, but there are three that have made a big difference to get the most out of our smartphones.
Larger screens
The Galaxy Note was ridiculed when it was announced for the first time when the average on the screens was no more than 4 inches, but five years later, right now, five inches is the standard for many phones.
The reason these large screens are an everyday occurrence is because the huge amount of multimedia content that can be launched from our smartphones by improving the hardware and elements, such as the camera, dramatically.
Another reason that large screens have been a success is because the optimization of the frontal space of the phone so that the bezels are thinner and the panel occupies a large ratio. This has allowed a 5,3-inch smartphone not to take up as much space as it did with those first Galaxy Note.
We must also remember how those first smartphones with huge screens were criticized by Apple itself, so that in the end they will also go through the hoop being its own evolution and change in the market.
Fingerprint scanner
This is the item that one can look at as if they were selling something that is worth nothing, but that the moment they use it for the first time, they are already embeds it in your day to day as if it was there since one was born.
This means that it is very convenient to unlock the terminal safely with the tip of your finger to go directly to the desktop of the phone. In the location is where there is still a great debate, since there are some manufacturers that bet on the back, others on the side and many others on the front in the physical home button as it happens with the Galaxy S7.
Apart from what the convenience of unlocking the terminal through the sensor means, it also offers a quality in security to be able to access the bank account app by using your fingerprint without having to enter PIN or anything like that.
Although on certain phones it is not entirely effective, since it produces errors in reading, it is recommended to register multiple positions so there are not so many problems.
Double press to turn on the terminal
I may be wrong, but it was LG with its G2 which extended this feature to make it one of the most innovative and effective ways to awaken the terminal from its slumber. A quick press on the screen and we have the smartphone ready for use. An innovative feature that has been expanded to more brands so that now the vast majority have it as an option to turn on the mobile.
Other apps, such as Nova Launcher, have included it in their app launcher so that it can be turn off the screen by pressing twice on the desk. Another way to use this great groundbreaking feature that LG generalized in its day with that great G2 that meant the return of this manufacturer to high quality in terminals.
