Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “This could be your next Smartphone.”.
What’S up guys, I hope you had a fantastic Christmas today. I want to introduce you to something you probably haven’t seen something that could very well dictate or the next generation of smartphones are going to look like you might have heard of do G. They release the do G mix a bit of a surprise hit. They then continued on release the do G mix to a little bit less of a success and in a bit of an effort to probably redeem the do G mix to they’ve released this now. This is a render of what the company claims is the future of smartphones, or at least the model that they’ll be applying to create one of their upcoming devices.
What we are talking about here is a smartphone which almost the entire front of the device is covered in display, for which the bezels running around all four sides have been slimmed down to almost non-existence. You’Re, probably thinking we’ve seen a lot of phones that already look something like this we’ve seen a lot of these mix themed devices which have characteristically small bezels on the sides, but all of these firms have shared one common trend which has now been removed, and that Is that giant chin at the bottom of the phone once there has been removed? What we are looking at here is potentially 90 % to 95 % screen to body ratio, but it comes with some interesting implications. To achieve this, the furnace had to become a dual layer sandwich where the earpiece, the proximity sensor, and what appears to be a dual front-facing camera have to be hidden in the rear, back piece of the phone which can be sled up when in use. Now, when I first came across this design, I was kind of thinking well, this might be causing a few more problems than its solving, but there are some ways I think that doogee could implement or other manufacturers if they’re going to go for this form factor which Might actually get around the problem a little bit the fact that the phone can be slid up and down into two different positions potentially gives you another input method, the equivalent of having potentially another button on the phone.
What could be done is every time you slide up the phone, it could automatically open up the camera app, but you could actually take a step further on this style of phone to make it even easier than it is now, if you think about it, if you Are going to be sliding up this phone to use the camera, the phone automatically knows you’re going to be using the front camera. If you just open the camera app and the front isn’t open, it knows you want to use the rear camera. So if anything, this unusual form factor could potentially make our camera experience even more convenient. It could save us a click compared to the type of smartphones we use now, but when you open the camera app 50 % of the time you’re not using by default, the camera that you want to another thing they should probably consider is that flicking your smartphone Open and closed 25 30 times a day could get kind of tiring. One option would be to get some strong, durable, coils and springload the smartphone such that every time you push it back into place, there’s a little bit of resistance, but that means it is then loaded. The springs will be compressed so that if you then press a release switch on the side of the phone every time you want the phone to flick up, it’ll do so automatically and effortlessly.
This might, however, over time cause a little bit of a risk of wear and tear. Generally speaking, the less moving parts you have on a device, the less likely it is to go wrong, so they could also just connect the top in the bottom halves with some sort of electric slider. The third thing that I think is really important for either doogee or whoever makes the first phone like this to do, would be to make sure the phone has two distinct positions: the in position and the out position and in either of these two. It’S gon na click firmly into place. What you really wouldn’t want is for the back part of the phone just to be flopping around. You can’t be on the phone to someone on your earpieces just jiggling up and down, because it’s not locked into place.
There’Ll be a really sloppy experience. Okay, this body doesn’t seem to at all affect the speaker placement. The fingerprint scanner can just be placed on the rear like it is on maybe 30 40 percent of phones, and that is also fine by me as long as it’s well highlighted. What it might add, though, is thickness now, technically speaking, if this fern was designed.
100 percent efficiently, if there was no spare space between the components if the battery was no thicker than four millimeters and could fit into the rear half of the phone, this phone could be no thicker than eight millimeters. More than likely, though, because this smartphone has to be designed so that no matter which position it’s in all connections remain in place, there is likely to be a bit of inefficiency, a bit of empty space, especially because this is a first gen model. So we could be looking at about 10 millimeters of thickness, not the end of the world, alright, so that is pretty exciting stuff. This design seems like a pretty good intermediate step before we have perhaps cameras underneath the front display 100 % screen to body ratios and earpieces embedded in the frame around the phone.
We could very well be seeing phones with this body by mid 2018. That’S not a long way away before we round things off, it is worth saying: yuuji isn’t the most credible company out there it’s very possible. They are making false promises in order to generate type or maintain people’s interest, but at the same time they have garnered. Quite a brand reputation in a very short period of time, so it wouldn’t necessarily be a very wise move to squander it with something like this. So take it with a pinch of salt, but at the same time I think it’s pretty likely that they will follow through in some capacity, if you haven’t seen my comparison of the digi mix to and the do G mix one.
It’S an interesting comparison that ends with some quite telling results, so do check that out I’ll leave it as a card above and if you’re already subscribed. It would mean so much to me if you could smash that subscribe button down below. But that being said, my name is Aaron.
