Abstract: Thanks to innovative multi-touch gesture user interfaces, faster processing and large screens, users are now more aware of the benefits of web access with mobility. The introduction of advanced user interfaces has been pivotal in finally realizing the possibility and benefit of mobile applications and web browsing to a wide audience, particularly in developed markets. Supported by increasing bandwidth in mobile networks, improved user experience has encouraged uptake, particularly as an extension of any given user’s online desktop experience, evidenced by the widespread adoption of mobile versions of leading social networking sites, through the browser, ODPs and other applications. This is illustrated by Apple through the iPhone, whose users in the UK are five times more likely to browse the Web than owners of other mobile phones.
The move triggered a wave of touch interface releases with large screens from rival device manufacturers. Devices such as the HTC Hero and the Palm Pre signify a new generation in UI, which other market-leading forces such as Nokia, Samsung, LG, Motorola and Sony Ericsson will bolster through their own releases over the coming year. It is within this context that the development of user interface technologies forms a crucial component, providing the platform which will help generate new revenue streams from advertising and content/application downloads, on top of subscriptions.
The UI is a holistic term encompassing all elements of a handset (hardware and software) that contribute towards the end-user’s experience with a mobile device. It is the system of screen images, devices and software components that allows the user to interact with and control the handset's operating system.Why you should buy this report- Network Operators: Gain insight into mean of increasing ARPU through the device itself.
