Weekly poll: which 2018 features are you most excited about?

Weekly poll: which 2018 features are you most excited about?


As we say goodbye to 2017, were already curious to see what 2018 will bring. Its too early to tell what the big trends in smartphones will be this year but we might have an inkling. For example, most flagships and even many mid-rangers have dual cameras now. To stand out, new phones will need more rumors suggest the Huawei P20 will have a . Or perhaps instead of basic cameras, makers will focus more on 3D scanners like Apples TrueDepth camera. Huawei competing tech, the has built-in support for 3D face scanning. Its been a few months and its still not 100% clear if FaceID is a great replacement for fingerprint scanners. Maybe it would be better if the scanner remains on board, perhaps hidden out of sight say, below the screen. Manufacturers couldnt pull it off last year but perhaps the tech has matured now. We bet well be hearing a lot about digital assistants and AI this year. The $30 smart speakers certainly , but consumers didnt care about assistants some theirs. But manufacturers arent giving up, maybe 2018 is when they actually get things right. We also believe that this year we will see a major shift from LCD to OLED. It has already started, even Apple made the jump. We expect to see more OLED phones from Cupertino, but from LG, Huawei and HTC as well. Which of these upcoming trends are you most excited about? (you can vote for multiple options)
