Though thousands of devices can access the internet, mobile devices have had the most impact on network usage. Following this trend, studies have shown that the devices will continue to influence the way we use the net. According to the 2015-2020 report by Cisco Visual Network Index (VNI) Global Mobile Data Traffic Predictions, the number of mobile users will exceed 5.5 billion by 2020, covering 70 percent of the world's population. Factors like mobile compatibility, access and quickly growing content demands will all aid in the increased use. It has been predicted that the growth in the number of mobile, smart devices, online videos and 4G network users will increase mobile data traffic eightfold over the next five years.

According to the report, by 2020 smart mobile devices will constitute 72 percent of connections - a major jump from the 36 percent in 2015 - with smart devices constituting 98 percent of mobile traffic. When further analyzed, smart devices take the crown in mobile data usage with 81 percent of total traffic in 2020 - a big jump from the 76 percent in 2015. Hybrid devices integrated with smart phone features are also expected to increase in popularity, with a predicted 5.4 billion by 2020 - a total that exceeds the number of people worldwide with access to clean water and electricity.

Mobile Video Boom

The growth rate of mobile videos has left all other applications in the dust. The high-resolution videos are in demand, both for personal and corporate use, causing steady increases in 4G consumption and device usage, which will eventually lead to innovations in both band speed and width. In line with these demands, it is expected that 4G usage will surpass 2G by 2018 and 3G by 2020. While explaining the importance of mobile devices, the Head of Solution at Cisco Turkey Service Provider Technologies, Gürkan Gülcan, said: "The future will be shaped by the mobile innovations created for mobile phones. The 4K video and cloud services will be the main 4.5G applications for download and upload in Turkey. Wi-Fi and SmallCell applications are also gaining popularity, as the most prominent complementary technologies supporting cell capacity. In the future, 5G and Wi-Fi solutions must be designed to meet upcoming needs by taking into consideration security concerns and user demands. The progress in the internet field will go on supporting the life of people, communities and the business world with concrete benefits."Uninterrupted work and connected computersWhat laptop user wouldn't want a constant internet connection?
