LATEST SMART PHONES OF THE DAY....

Hi guys, 
How Ya All Doing? Things are going cool around here. And I thought to address some issues I faced myself few months back. WHAT ARE THE LATEST + HOTTEST SMART PHONES FOR THE DAY. Yup. So I thought why dont I share something I found with you guys.

The mobile market is rocking these days. And changing nonetheless. Every month a hot shot is coming out and "goldies" become "oldies". (like poor S 2)  So which phone you should go for? What do you look in a phone? precisely speaking in a SMART PHONE.  These are some of the stuff we all like to check in a phone.

• first and best : LOOKS 
• processor
• ram
• camera
• video (1080p@30fps)
• wifi (hotspot) / GPS / HDMI
• thick or thin ( I love ma Motorola RAZR for this)
• good touch

oki, there are lots of hot stuff hanging around the market and some big names dominating the titles. Lets check which are crowned titles each brand is keeping upto date. (this will change in couple of months, lets keep upto date guys.)

But this does not have lot of improvements from S2. people were expecting much from Samsung. They have worked well on the LOOKS (which derives from apple) and the touch. But I expected at least 1.2 gb ram. Because S2 was a very stable phone. Even the arrival of Iphone 4S didnot make much threat to that. Most people believe Samsung could have done better than this.

Sony is another big name came to mobile market gradually with android OS. I remember those good old days when nokia was dominant, Sony Erricsson also was hanging there. But now the SONY BRAVIA engine, lot of people are talking about this. The sleek mobile looks quite hot. and 12mp camera with sony technology speaks a lot.

The long awaited hot shot from Steve Jobbs. Lot of people are mad about this. But I personally not apple guy. However, Apple hardware has its own secret. with obvious differences of specs with other high end phones, iphone 4S has fast performance, superb touch, camera speed, etc. This phone feels solid.(dont drop it guys. it is SOLID) As apple comes, no battery removing, no fingering with OS. very restricted but still rocking. 

04. HTC ONE X
Size           : 4.7 inch (Corning Gorilla Glass)
Storage     :  32 GB storage  (No card Slot)

The next big guy from Taiwan. With bigger screen One looks good. HTC also coming out very fast with the growing android market. With slightly lesser price than Galaxy s3 and iphone 4s, HTC looks ready for a long journey.  

05. MOTOROLA RAZR MAXX

Another issue like Samsung. This guy also doesnt have much bigger stuff than RAZR XT910. But check the huge battery. Remember the droid with excellent battery capacity? Motorola has its own cutting edge tech at a lesser cost. But not much looks right? 

06. NOKIA N 9

Storage     :  16/64 GB storage

My dear Nokia, facing huge problems these days. Arrival of Android attacked the symbian market badly. Nokia is trying to keep up with hardware battle. N 9 is a nice phone but not android. :( I still remember those good old days with N73. How we could play catch with those phones. Recently Nokia introduced pureview 808 with 41 mp camera. But still they are left behind.


07. BLACKBERRY 9900 
Size           : 2.8 inch touch with qwerty keypad  
Storage     :  8 GB storage  
Ram          : 768 MB
Camera     : 5 mp ( video 1080p@30fps) / NO front camera
Processor  : 1.2 GHz QC 8655

OS            : BlackBerry OS 7.0

Battery      : Li-Ion 1230 mAh
Price         : ----- (Sri Lankan rupees) / 2200 (Qatar riyal)

The Business class phone with on-the-go internet. As Blackberry comes, nice and easy with the full qwerty keypad and optical trackpad. The phone is solid and feels easy on the go. But for geeks, this is no match. BB 9900 comes with the new OS 7.0. And BB network has its own advantages. But in my opinion, its hanging around because of the billing packages provided by all the network providers. ;)

So there we are. These are the big things  in market at the moment. Not much news in samsung regarding the next galaxy. There were some rumors about a Nexus coming. Apple is awaiting for the transparent iphone 5. we will wait. It wont take much time. This is a hugely dynamic market. May the best one win.


Lets see what you got to say.............
