Graphene – A mobile wonder?

The mobile market is making rapid progress and new advancements are continuously pushing the boundaries of what is possible. With that in mind, today’s blog is about looking into the future and identifying new ideas that will change the mobile industry. Get ready for our journey into the future….

Introducing “GRAPHENE”

Graphene is a substance made up of a single layer of carbon atoms, extracted from graphite, with unique properties: stronger than diamond and more flexible than rubber. It has been dubbed as the “miracle material” and earmarked for over £60m research funding by the Chancellor George Osborne.

So you must be wondering, what links graphene to the mobile market? Well, how about over 400 patents from Samsung for a start? The miracle material has the potential to change the way we see our mobile devices. A look on any of the major search engines for graphene brings up a host of videos showcasing a glimpse of the future for the mobile market.

Mobile phone giants Samsung and Apple are not the only companies looking into graphene technology however, with Nokia recently being awarded a €1 billion European Union (EU) grant that will be used to fund research into the development of graphene.

With that being said, how could the mobile market benefit from this miracle material in years to come? As with any new technological advancement the future is difficult to predict with any certainty. Possible uses of graphene range from flexible/bendy display screens to “smash proof” phones. Both Nokia and Samsung have indicated that they plan to release mobile phones using graphene technology in the near future.

All of this investment and innovation points to a rapidly changing mobile market that is set to grow even faster in the immediate future. With change affecting every facet of the industry from hardware to software, the technological race is well under way.
