Awesome Technologies That Will Rule 2020

The evolution in the field of technology is faster than ever and as we’re entering the end of another great decade filled with technological innovations, here are some technologies that are expected to rule 2019 and grab most of our attention.

1. 5G

The next generation of mobile communications is about to arrive with major telecom operators already performing trials for 5G networks and the launch of Snapdragon 855 SoC which will be the first SoC to support the network. As the technology becomes more popular, we will see a host of applications which will largely depend on the internet.

With 5G, we will be able to access network speeds in the range of gigabits per second, almost a hundred times faster than the current 4G network. With 5G, we will be able to send and receive information in the blink of an eye – literally!

With the massive increase in data speeds, most of the processing could take place at servers. This could mean that you can subscribe to a gaming service and play hardware intensive titles on your smartphone or a tablet PC running on 5G even without owning the necessary hardware.

Besides the significant jump in speeds on our mobile devices, we are also likely to witness an increase in the communication between machines, allowing them to make their own decisions, and also augment ours. From smart vending machines, that will recognize you by the face to dispense your favorite candy even before you make a command, to self-driven vehicles, 5G will open doors to a variety of possibilities.

2. Li-Fi

Li-Fi or Light Fidelity is another network protocol that can replace conventional Wi-Fi systems. Instead of using radio waves used by Wi-Fi, Li-Fi uses electromagnetic signals which may or may not be visible to humans, such as ultraviolet, infrared waves beside just visible light.

Using LEDs which are dimmed below human visibility, Li-Fi compatible systems offer faster and more reliable connections than the current generation of Wi-Fi routers.

The concept of Li-Fi is not new but we expect the technology to really catch up in the coming years, and French research firm Yole Développement predicts an exponential growth starting in 2021.

3. 120Hz Refresh Rate Display

For those who love to play high-octane games on smartphones would already be gushing over the 120Hz refresh rate display. With incredible smoothness and responsiveness, it’s set to make smartphones a great device for gaming. Even if you aren’t much into gaming, you would fall in love with the snappier performance of the screen.

As major smartphone giants like Realme, OnePlus, and Samsung have already introduced 120Hz refresh rate display on their latest high-end smartphones, chances are pretty high that other smartphone vendors will follow suit, thereby making this tech go mainstream in 2020. If you feel like giving it a shot, check out our extensive collection of the smartphones with the 120Hz refresh rate display.
