These March 2020 mobile trends highlight the various ways that companies and brands are working to fine-tune the user experience to help keep consumers interested in the latest tech.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is one device in particular that has been making waves and helping to bring back the flip phone form factor to satisfy consumers who are looking for an alternative to bar-style smartphones. We're also seeing a number of apps and devices that highlight privacy as well as efficiency as consumers seek out ways to stay secure as they check their online accounts or simply go about their daily routine.
While many of the March 2020 mobile trends focus on hardware releases by OEMs, we're also seeing many digital wellness apps that enable consumers to take care of themselves in a hyper-personalized way.
