 People are anticipating and desperately waiting for the launch of this smartphone. Many fans and current Apple iPhone consumers are wondering what groundbreaking features Apple will add to the new iPhone 5.The upcoming phone is expected to sport the Apple’s latest and greatest A5 processor chip, iCloud service, higher-resolution camera, and a 4-inch screen size.

2.Quad-Core Mobile Devices

Speedy dual-core processors, such as Apple's A5 in the iPad 2 and iPhone 4S, will soon be old news as even faster quad-core chips migrate to the mobile market. Chip maker Nvidia says that smartphones featuring its quad-core Tegra 3 processors may arrive in the first half of 2012. And quad-core tablets, such as the Tegra 3-powered Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime, are already here. Qualcomm, meanwhile, says that its quad-core Snapdragon chips will appear in Windows 8 tablets in the second half of 2012.

 3. Smarter TVs From Apple and Sony 

 

According to Steve Jobs's biographer Walter Isaacson, Apple's cofounder was obsessed with the smart-TV concept, and had been working diligently on a genre-defining television interface before he passed. Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, a longtime Apple watcher, recently predicted that an Apple television would debut by the end of 2012 or by the start of 2013. 

 

Sony, meanwhile, is developing next-gen TV concepts designed to emulate Apple's successful strategy of sharing user content among multiple devices, including TVs, tablets, smartphones, and game consoles.

 

4.Microsoft Windows 8 

Microsoft's next operating system promises to be everything. Designed to power both tablets and conventional PCs, Windows 8 is ambitious and risky. The new OS will feature the touch-oriented Metro interface that we first saw in Windows Phone 7. That means Microsoft's "reimagined" flagship OS will be the first Windows version since the iconic Windows 95 to revamp, rather than simply tweak, the desktop interface.Windows 8's touch-friendly tiles might make sense for tablet users.

5.Lytro Camera 

Just when you thought stand-alone point-and-shoot cameras were out of the picture, along comes the Lytro. The Lytro is an innovative light-field camera that uses a new type of sensor to capture the color, intensity, and vector direction of light rays. This new approach offers some unique advantages--namely, the freedom to be able to focus an image after you've shot it. One thing that may limit the Lytro camera's consumer appeal is its price: The 8GB versions will cost $399, and the 16GB version will cost $499.

6. Windows Phone 7 Platform

Microsoft's efforts in the mobile OS arena have been greeted by big yawns from the majority of smartphone shoppers. But Windows Phone 7's prospects may brighten in 2012. The new Windows Phone 7.5 (Mango) software adds the features and fine-tuning that the OS needs to compete with Android and iOS. Nokia's adoption of WP7 should also help spur sales, and WP7 handsets such as the Samsung Focus S are getting good reviews. The next 12 months may decide whether Windows Phone 7 handsets succeed or go the way of the Zune.

7.Sony PlayStation Vita 

It is the successor to the PlayStation Portable as part of the PlayStation brand of gaming devices. It was released in Japan and parts of Asia on December 17, 2011 and is expected to be released in Europe, Australia, and North America on February 22, 2012. The new PS Vita 3G/Wi-Fi, powered by AT&T's Mobile Broadband Network, will change the way you game with real-time scores and game ranking news feeds, competitive multiplayer game sessions, and cross-game text messaging with Party. Game at the speed of your mobile life style. The main features of psvita are, front and rear cameras, six axis motion sensor, multi touch display, 5" OLED screen, GPS, With cross platform play you can start playing a game on your PS3 console, dual analog sticks. Software for the PlayStation Vita will be distributed on a new proprietary flash memory card called "PlayStation Vita card" rather than on Universal Media Discs (UMDs) used by the original PlayStation Portable.PSVita memory cards will be available in size from 4 GB to 32 GB, with 4 GB versions available at launch, with 5–10% of the writeable space will be reserved for save data, patches, etc.

8. Wilocity

Wireless networking will become a lot faster in 2012 if peripheral and mobile device manufacturers adopt Wilocity's 60GHz multigigabit chipsets. Based on the proposed 802.11ad wireless standard, Wilocity's technology speeds up a variety of mainstream computing tasks, including storage, file transfer, and high-definition video. Wilocity's first chips will reach speeds of 4 gigabits per second, but the 802.11ad spec has the potential to reach 7 gbps.
