Forget iPhone 14, world's fastest phone coming; Check out this mind-blowing tech

With the launch of the iPhone 14 series, we have witnessed what the Apple A16 Bionic chipset is capable of and it is extremely fast. On the Android side of things, we saw the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 flaunt the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, a comparable beast to the A16. With 5G knocking at our front door, the world is already wondering how fast the next generation will be. However, if smartphone makers must keep up with this battle of increasing internet speed and processing power, they must first tackle a big hurdle. How to make the hardware to offer that kind of speed and power. But a new and surprisingly simple machine can potentially be a game changer and offer us the world's fastest phone, making you forget the iPhone 14. Read on to know more about it.

Nanowerk, a nanotechnology portal, reports on this fascinating technology. But first, let us understand the problem in developing faster internet speeds for the next generation of smartphones. To receive such high frequency signals, smartphones must be equipped with antennas that can function at the range of tens of gigahertz. But for that to happen, the filament in these antennae must be braided to the thickness of one micrometer. Current industrial equipment is not capable of producing something like that and even if heavy research and development can create something that can do it, it won't come cheap.

This is where researchers at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) came in. In a study published in Nature journal titled ‘3D-printed machines that manipulate microscopic objects using capillary forces', they explain how a simple and cheap machine can be built to get the same results.

The machine is ridiculously simple. It uses the
