What has your phone done for you, lately? The past year was a big year one for mobile technology, with advancements in facial recognition, augmented reality, and more. But what does your phone need to do for you in 2018? Sean Aune, Editor-in-Chief of Technobuffalo tells us what the mobile industry has to do to keep business this year. It was a big year for Apple with the iPhone X and 8, with the iPhone topping the list of the best-selling tech products of 2017. But the company has taken its knocks with shipping delays and the battery slowdown controversy. Aune says Apple needs to lower prices, and fix battery issues. LG launched its G6 about a year ago, to mediocre reviews. The G7 is expected as early as next month, and Aune says the South Korean company needs to improve its cameras and spend money on ad campaigns, since hardly anyone knows when new phones are out. Aune also tells us what Samsung and Google Pixel need to do to increase sales and brad recognition.
