Question

Do you think that, in the in the last 20 years the aspect of similarity in the rapid production and distribution of electronic technologies (appearance and technology wise) set the device's own limitations by controlling their dynamic and cumulative process in creating their own demand and perhaps setting a zero form once we are asked to think of lets say a smartphone?

For example, how smartphone devices were much more diverse by the companies and their products that focus on different aspects to be on a phone before the companies of Apple and Samsung dominated the market.

Yes, I think that, in the last 20 years the aspect of similarity in the rapid production and distribution of electronic technologies - appearance wise and technology wise, set the device's own limitations by controlling their dynamic and cumulative process in creating their own demand and perhaps setting a zero form once we are asked to think of lets say a smartphone.

For example, the smartphone devices were much more diverse by the companies and their products that focus on different aspects to be on a phone before the companies of Apple and Samsung dominated the market.

A smartphone is a handheld personal computer with a mobile operating system and an integrated mobile broadband cellular network connection for voice, SMS, and Internet data communication; most if not all smartphones also support Wi-Fi. Smartphones are typically pocket-sized, as opposed to tablets, which are much larger than a pocket.

They are able to run a variety of third-party software components ("apps") from places like the Google Play Store or Apple App Store, and can receive bug fixes and gain additional functionalitythrough operating system software updates.

Modern smartphones have a touchscreen color display with a graphical user interface that covers the front surface and enables the user to use a virtual keyboard to type and press onscreen iconsto activate "app" features. They integrate and now largely fulfill most people's needs for a telephone, digital camera and video camera, GPS navigation, a media player, clock, news, calculator, web browsing, handheld video games, flashlight, compass, an address book, a note-taking application, digital messaging, an event calendar, etc.

Typical smartphones will include one or more of the following sensors: magnetometer, proximity sensor, barometer, gyroscopeor accelerometer. Since the early 2010's, smartphones have adopted integrated virtual assistants, such as Siri, Google Assistant, Alexa, Cortana, and Bixby. Most smartphones produced from 2012 onward have high-speed mobile broadband 4G LTE, motion sensors, and mobile payment features.

In 1999 the Japanese firm NTT DoCoMo released the first smartphones to achieve mass adoption within a country.Smartphones became widespread in the late 2000s, following the release of the iPhone. In the third quarter of 2012, one billion smartphones were in use worldwide. Global smartphone sales surpassed the sales figures for feature phones in early 2013.
