Abstract
Currently, with development of technology, the use of gadgets like smart devices (smartphones, tablets) is becoming more common. In recent years, mobile technologies play an increasingly important role in students’ lives, study and scientific research. In addition, currently most students in higher education institutions use smartphones. Many universities use electronic devices such as smart phones, laptops, computers, and tablets as teaching devices and building websites that run on mobile platforms or developing applications that can be easily downloaded from google play or Apple store. Therefore, this article focuses on analyzing the perspectives as well as the application of learning on mobile devices in higher education 4.0. Surveys of students owning a mobile device and doing their learning on a mobile phone show that the currently students owning mobile devices is high and will continue to increase. The data was analyzed through the calculation of the proportion of responses in the questionnaires. The article also summarizes the results of short discussions about the results of the research, finding that mobile technologies play an important role in teaching and learning in the current context of higher education in Vietnam. Based on the results, the authors recommend that more studies should be done to provide knowledge regarding the application and development of mobile technologies in learning and research of students towards the era of industrial revolution 4.0 (IR4).

Summary
The development of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) has an impact on the industrial sector and has a strong impact on education and training. As technology grows more and more, the use of gadgets for example smart devices is increasingly popular due to the breakthrough development of technology. Mobile learning as an educational activity makes sense only when the technology in use is fully mobile and when the users of the technology are mobile while they learn. These observations emphasise the mobility of learning and the significance of the term “mobile learning” (Traxler, 2007). This article delves into theoretical and practical view of learning on mobile devices of students in higher education 4.0 of Vietnam and review some previous research to connect the reality and prospects of mobile learning with teaching and learning in higher education environments 4.0
