With the latest flagship release of iPhone with versions 6 and SE, the evolution of mobile phones have reached it’s zenith. To add to it, Tim Cook in a recent interview with TNW, stated that the next technology to seep into our handsets in near future would actually be immersive depth technology for visual and acoustics, which till now have been a rare task to achieve electronically speaking. Even the highest budget feature films such as impending Avatar sequels will have to really push the limits to actually include such prowess. That being said, if mobile history is anything to go by, Mobiles have always been the examples of cutting edge innovation ( Touchscreen, Gps, and plenty under the hood burst outs ) and asthetic designs as well.
