Today many of us live surrounded by smart phones and technology evolves almost before our eyes.
But where the future of smartphones is it for? What kind of equipment will use 20 years from now?
At the World Mobile Congress in Barcelona, BBC World had the opportunity to consult experts in mobile technology over thefuture holds the smart phone.
20 years of cell
In 1983 appeared on the market the first mobile phone model, was the Motorola DynaTAC and weighed 800 grams.
It has been more than 20 years and the cell has lost weight, lighter batteries has increasingly sharper screens, takes pictures and incorporating Internet, incorporating more and more functions.
At Mobile World Congress they were presentedsmartphones cheaper, with high-definition images, connected to smart watches and bracelets and biometric systems.
Mobile technology experts say that at this point it is hard to imagine what the smartphone of the future, especially since it is possible that it somehow ends disappearing.

Ben Wood of CCS Insight imagine two possible changes to the smartphone.
Shao Yang, theChinese multinational Huawei shares this view.
"We're not sure or if you have phones like these," he told the BBC, "maybe the communication will be somewhere in my pocket, perhaps in some display my glasses, maybe the music in a device in my ear, they will many possibilities. "
But Ben Wood of CCS technology analysis firm Insight, believes that the future of smart phone could follow two differentpaths in their evolution.
"Think of the cars. They have not changed much in 20 years, so the phone could be as they look today."
"Or in an alternative world, someone would solve the problem of the durability of the batteries, so we can have smaller devices, flexible displays, but we could also interact with phones in a different way."
As many agree, it is that mobile communication is to diversifyand the phone will simply be a piece within that system.
Connected World
"The phone will be the device that you connect, but not through the apparatus itself," says James Bruce of British development company ARM Holdings software.
And the world of mobile communication, experts say, is directed to the era of "internet of things" connected city. And in that scenario, multiple devices act asintermediaries in this communication. So the smart phone, to continue to exist, it would be the equivalent to our TV remote control.

The president of Intel believes that smartphones will not exist in 20 years.
"I do not have cell in 20 years. What will happen, we are already seeing, is the integration ofcommunication technologies in other products," said Renee James, president of Intel.
"They give you the ability to connect to any computer around you and communicate through it."
"We'll have so much to be smart, not just phones, tablets, clocks or objects for exercise," concludes Mitchell Baker, founder of Mozilla.
"Our electricity meters, perhaps our shoes or tables, all kinds of things will beintelligent and will be sending data around us."
A principios de los años 90, los teléfonos móviles eran poco más que una costosa curiosidad.
Hoy muchos de nosotros vivimos rodeados de teléfonos móviles inteligentes y la tecnología evoluciona casi enfrente de nuestros ojos.
¿Pero a dónde se dirige el futuro de los smartphones? ¿Qué clase de aparatos usaremos dentro de 20 años?
En el World MobileCongress de Barcelona, BBC Mundo tuvo la oportunidad de consultar a expertos en tecnología móvil sobre el futuro que le depara al celular inteligente.
