The future of mobile phone technology is a topic that holds unlimited potential. As with any other consistently evolving technological device, mobile phones are constantly being updated each day with newer models and enhanced functions. This, coupled with the technology currently researched will provide a broad new range of mobile phones to users in the near future.

In our current day and age, where technological devices are plentiful, there is always a large range of products for any particular device. Take digital MP4 Players as an example ' since its introduction, not only has the device proven itself to be more convenient as a portable media box player than its predecessors (such as the MP3 player), it has also been designed in many different ways so to suit different tastes and styles. The flexibility in which technological devices are put forth nowadays greatly contribute to the rapid development in mobile phone technology ' since there are so many companies, businesses and designers competing for the world's mobile phone market, there  will always be an incentive to bring forth something new.

Take for example, some of the so-labelled 'mobile phones of the future' from Businessweek online magazine. While these phones may seem extravagant and nothing more, they certainly do give a great indication on how developers think and what we should expect of mobile phone technology in the future.

Introducing a $1.26 billion phone featuring a body composed entirely of gold and covered in 120 carats of diamonds is one of the most expensive models released by GoldVish to ever hit the markets for the general public. This model holds and exclusive design where a touch on one of the precious stones opens a small compartment which can be used for storing medicine, jewels or other small and portable items.

We are also introduced to a phone in development since 2008, a sleek and shiny Onyx model which features no buttons ' instead, the phone operates by utilizing sensor technology to respond to let users dial numbers and is also able to identify signs and gestures from the human body. For example, in order to answer a phone call, lifting the phone to your cheek will activate talk mode and allow for a normal conversation.

Mobile TV technology may also be implemented as a focus on phones in the future, with specific phone models with larger, high quality screens designed to create a portable solution for video conferencing and television shows. These types of devices open up a broad new target audience by allowing users to view TV shows literally anywhere they go with a portable mobile phone and will certainly give a new outlook on the possible uses of such a device.

Regardless, mobile phone technology has and will always continue to evolve as long as there is a demand for newer and more interesting models. The future of mobile phone technology is something that we will definitely be able to look forward to, so be sure to stay on top of it.
