Due to wide variety of smart phones and capability of supporting heavy applications their demand is increasing day by day. Increase of computation capability and processing power Mobile cloud computing (MCC) becomes an emerging field. After cloud computing mobile cloud provide significant advantage and usage with reliability and portability. Challenges involved in mobile cloud computing are energy consumption, computation power and processing ability. Mobile cloud provides a way to use cloud resources on mobile but traditional models of smart phones does not support cloud so researchers introduce new models for the development of MCC. There are certain phases that still need improvement and this field attracts many researchers. Purpose of this chapter is to analyze and summarize the challenges involved in this field and work done so far.
