The top March 2016 mobile ideas showcase a number of innovative new products, exciting new apps, software updates and successful mobile brand marketing campaigns.
The Honor Band Z1 is an intuitive wearable disguised as a stylish timepiece. The minimalist exercise wearable is highly affordable and connects to a smartphone app to tracks a variety of statistics to offer the same capabilities of a Fitbit Flex.
A recent Samsung stunt on the "Blue Carpet" at the Zoolander 2 premiere featured star Ben Stiller taking a group selfie with the world's longest selfie stick, setting a Guinness World Record in the process. The promotion highlights the ever-expanding presence of mobile brand sponsorships and the creative methods through which they highlight a product's features.
