ARM predicts that half of the units to be shipped this year will use the new 64-bit instruction set ARMv8. Another prediction pegs the price of a 64-bit, LTE-enabled smartphone to "less than $ 70," so that the flagship, of course, not the only device driving the adoption of new technologies.
Biometrics will be huge and the grid with an increased focus on the hardware security features. This is good news, since ARM predicts a huge surge of mobile payments, as more and more people are choosing to replace their credit card with your smartphone.

Again, Sammy is out of sight, even for ARM.
Sammy will have hard time justifying their $700 price tag against those Chinese ones' $70.

They didn't release much info about windows phone 10...all i got to know was it had floating notifications(like iOS and Android) and more toggles for wifi and such...
No idea about 64bit.

I still don't understand the point of 64-bit smartphones and tablets. When PC went to 64-bit, the biggest advantage that existed was the option to use greater amounts of RAM than 4GB. Today still the only real thing that has changed to give 64-bit an advantage is the ability to use 64-bit applications. Other than that its not an important feature.
