How will Mobile Phones look like in the next 10 - 20 years ?

Yesterday morning I was just going through my old stuffs then I stumbled on a Nokia 3310. I picked it up and laughed for a while then tried to power it with its charger & behold the phone powered on. I was so surprised because this phone has been there for ages without anyone touching it. After charging it for like 20 minutes, I turned it on then scroll down the menu straight to games and launch Snake. After playing it for like ten minutes shattering all my high scores LOL, I then remembered a question the CEO of AANetworkTech in Zaria ask me “How will mobile phones look like in the next 5-10 years”. I paused & wondered for a moment then the words “TOO MANY POSSIBILITIES” stuck on my mind.
Since I do not have any Harry Porter Magic Wand nor some time travel machine to know what’s installed in the future and I’m no expert so I can only tell how phones could be using current trends which is based on the comparison of past and present devices.

A software bug found on MediaTek (MTK) Chipset leaves some devices with potential risk

Manufacturers of MTK Smart Phone Chipsets MediaTek says that there is a bug found on android devices running on their chipset which put the device at great risk. This bug actually affects only devices running on android 4.4 kitkat.



MediaTek says their security team is aware of the issue and says the bug is caused due to the fact that debug feature is enabled which was made for testing in China. Smart Phone manufacturers which use this chip are suppose to turn off the feature before shipping out the products to consumers. Some of the phone manufacturer did not do this thus resulting in this security threat.

This bug can actually allow a hacker to attack any vulnerable device and enable root access on it. With root acess, the attacker can spy an intercept messages, brick the device, install unauthorized apps etc. 

MediaTek never gave any solution to this. They only said they have informed the phone manufacturers who use their chip about this loop hole.
