The year 2016 is here and with it many new smartphones will be arriving. This year they will not have especially innovative technologies. However, we are going to see how many technologies that were previously only present in some smartphones are now present in many more. Specifically, these are the 3 characteristics that will begin to be common in all mobile phones in 2016.
Quick charge
Already at the end of 2015 it began to be a feature present in almost all mobile phones. But it will be in 2016 when all mobiles, including entry-level smartphones, will have fast charging technology, either Quick Charge, if they have a Qualcomm processor, or some other technology in function. processor they have. However, fast charging is going to become very common in all 2016 mobiles.
Water resistance
It will not be as common as fast charging, but water resistance could also be present in more and more smartphones than those launched this 2016. The Samsung Galaxy S7 will be water resistant, recovering a feature present in the Galaxy S5, but which was not present on the Galaxy S6. The iPhone 7 is said to be waterproof too. The rest of the flagships will have to follow. Something similar will happen in the mid-range, since the Motorola Moto G 2015 was already waterproof, and if they want to rival this, the mid-range of Huawei and company will have to start including this feature as well. It is very likely that we will even see Xiaomi or Meizu mobiles in the middle or end of this year with very cheap prices that are already water resistant.
Screen replacement guarantee
Some manufacturers are already selling their mobiles with the guarantee of the replacement of the screen or the glass of the screen in case it breaks, even if it has been broken because of us. It is said that the Samsung Galaxy S7 could also come with this feature. The screens are increasingly resistant, although there are still many users who break the screens of their smartphones. In any case, it could be a good strategy to compete with Chinese mobiles, which users purchase through international distributors, and which would not have this guarantee. Buying a mobile that is officially marketed in Europe would be more expensive, but we would have the replacement of the free screen. It is probably something that we will see in many more smartphones this year 2016, and more if it is finally confirmed that it is a feature with which the Samsung Galaxy S7 is launched.
