Opinion: How the Google-Motorola deal will spawn a new OS

This week I’m at a convention of analysts from the major firms who cover mobile phones devices. Most of the major names are here and, as you might imagine, much of the discussion is on the acquisition of Motorola Mobile by Google. While I don’t want to imply that all of us are in agreement — we seldom are — a theme has emerged in terms of consensus Android as an open OS is pretty much done. Google is now on the path to becoming much like Apple, with Android as an integrated solution. This could actually improve the quality of future Android phones, but it is also creating a substantial demand for something to take its place.

Android is dead, the Android Phone is born

The first part of this growing consensus is that by buying Motorola, Google made it nearly impossible to sustain relationships with the other licensees. This group of mostly mobile phone companies largely either didn’t adopt or abandoned Symbian after Nokia bought it, and avoids with a passion supporting any common platform that is tied to a competitor. It simply puts them at too great a disadvantage. Nokia actually went farther than Google is going to create separation between Symbian and its handset business, and it clearly wasn’t far enough.

New app Instagram allows mobile phones to create artistic photographs

London, Aug 21(ANI): Now, you can also create artistic photographs from your mobile phones which could then be shared with friends on a social network focused on photos - thanks to a new application called Instagram.


Launched in October 2010, Instagram is an iPhone app that makes it easy to add effects to photos and share them with friends. It added a social element to a trend that was already well developed: adding pre-determined effects and filters to mobile phone photographs.

ET Review: LG Optimus 3D P920 with eye-popping visuals

For some people, 3D is just a gimmick that is worth little more than the odd look. It definitely has no place on a mobile phones. LG, however, thinks differently. The new Optimus 3D is not really the first 3D phone - the Spice M-67 offered 3D without glasses almost a year ago -but it certainly is the most muscular handheld device we have seen offering 3D. It is bulky (11.9mm thick) and at a hefty 168 grams, is not the lightest phone in town. Although built mainly of plastic, it feels solid to hold.

The front is dominated by the large 4.3 inch display with four touch keys for menu, home, back and search. On the left side are HDMI and micro USB ports and on the right is the volume rocker and a key which many might assume is a camera key, but is actually the key that lets in the 3D magic. A 3.5 mm audio jack and the screen/power on-off button are on the top of the phone. On the back is the dual 5.0-megapixel camera module with a single LED flash.

Motorola DROID Bionic MAP leak shows $299.99 price tag kicking off September 8th

Seems like we can't go more than a day or two without another Motorola DROID Bionic latest mobile phone leak, huh? Today we've got the image you see above, showing that the Bionic has been given a minimum advertised price (MAP) of $299.99 by our friends at Verizon. That means that we'll likely see it slapped with that price tag when it arrives. Speaking of arriving, the Bionic's MAP is taking effect on September 8th, meaning that that's likely the day that the handset will hit stores and this whole saga can finally end. Oh, and if you're not the commitment type and are planning on picking up the Bionic for full retail next month, the folks at Droid-Life have heard that it'll be priced at $589.99 sans contract.

Xperia mini Pro

The Sony Xperia Mini Pro (Not to be mistaken for the X10 Mini Pro), is the keyboard equipped version of the Xperia mini that lanced last week. With so many Mini’s out there from Sony Ericsson it can be quite confusing especially considering the Mini Pro was code named “Mango” for the last few months. So just to be clear the Xperia Mini range is a small version of their popular Android powered Xperia smartphones. Rather then the usual format of adding numbers or letters to signify an upgrade Sony Ericsson have dropped the X10 from the newest model and is simply called Xperia Mini Pro. Hopefully that clears up any confusion over the name.

So now that we’re sure this is in fact a latest mobile phone, what does it have offer? Well for a small Android handset it’s got a pretty powerful processor. It’s main competitor the HTC wildfire S comes with a 600 MHz processor and is no slouch with a very smooth and responsive menu system.

Share Will LG experience a backlash for locking the G-Slate bootloader?

Oh, LG, I want to love you but I can't. Just when we think you may make it in the smartphone world, you go and do this. You make good latest mobile phones, not great phones; you raise the bar, but only so much; and now you're locking bootloaders? Let's do the math: that's two tiny steps forward and a mile jog in the opposite direction of other Android OEMs.

When it comes to smartphones – or mobile tablets – specifications are only half the story. A dual-core processor, 1GB RAM, awesome camera and high resolution display only account for a portion of a customers' love for their Android phone. Without development support, a lot of tinkering users may be left mostly unsatisfied down the road. The initial excitement can quickly run out after several bugs – likely due to an OEM's custom software, which can easily be solved with a custom ROM – surface.

HTC partners with Beats, awesome audio focused devices coming this fall

I am a latest mobile phones savvy and a big fan of HTC’s smartphones and the HD7 is my current favorite. However, high end audio quality and camera performance have been two areas of the hardware that has disappointed in the past. They seem to be working to get their cameras updated, as seen in the myTouch 4G Slide, and last night announced that partnered with Beats Electronics LLC to focus on brining high performance sound to HTC phones.

With the incredible Zune Pass offer and experience on Windows Phones, a partnership with Beats and its Beats by Dr. Dre audio experience could result in some of the best HTC phones ever. It looks like Nokia will get some special treatment from Microsoft and provide a fantastic navigation service to Windows Phone so it is cool that HTC will differentiate with an amazing audio experience.

Buying a mobile phone

Have you ever wondered what life was like before the invention of the mobile phones? It’s hard to imagine now that mobiles dominate our everyday life.

Although the mobile phone is primarily used for voice communication, the advancement of technology means the modern day mobile is capable of a number of other feats. From SMS messages for sending text, and MMS messaging for sending multimedia (photos, sounds and videos), to surfing the Web, listening to Internet radio, downloading music and reading the news, the rise of smartphones has made mobile phones much more than just a communication device.

Nokia to Bring Windows Phone 7 Devices to China Mobile

Nokia plans on launching Windows Phone 7 handsets through China's largest mobile phone carrier as the handset maker tries to fend off competition from Android devices and Apple's iPhone.

The smartphones would operate on China Mobile's 3G network using the TD-SCDMA standard, said Nokia executive vice president Colin Giles during a speech in Beijing on Friday. China Mobile has more than 600 million users or about two-third of the country's total mobile phone subscriber base.

Amazon CEO Files Patent for Mobile Phone Airbags

We've all done it at one point or another, whether it was on the kitchen floor, in the backyard, in the toilet, or even in public. That's right -- we've all dropped our Latest mobile phones at some point in our lives.

I've had approximately 12 cell phones total throughout my mobile life, which mainly consisted of cheap feature phones in my earlier days. When I'd accidentally drop these phones, they stuck it out pretty well, only coming out of the free-fall with a few scratches.

How Facebook Messenger blew up my iPhone

I was one of many folks whose smartphone was bombarded after installing the new Facebook Messenger app, a stand alone version of the Facebook messaging platform also included in the main Facebook application. To the dismay of many smartphone users including myself, my contacts on my iPhone in some cases were showing up in triplicate. For us geeks, nothing is more maddening that duplicate entries of anything, whether it be notifications, emails or contacts.
I won’t go on and on about this as many people already are on their blogs but it does bring up a couple questions and again unearths some more of the immature development practices still prevalent at Facebook.

Samsung battles Nokia in smartphones

Samsung is counting on snazzy new products, innovative marketing and vaulting ambition to close the gap on rival Nokia in this lucrative segment.

You might consider him cocky or overly ambitious. But Ranjit Yadav, Samsung India country head of mobile and IT makes no bones of his company’s ambition: “We want to be the number one smart phone player in the country. Our target is to grab 40 per cent market share by the end of this year”.

The new front in the mobile phone wars

The future for companies like Nokia and Motorola, once the great pioneers of the mobile phone industry, has been bleak for some time. The likes of Apple and RIM have eaten away at their share of the high-end smartphone market for several years now, while cheaper Asian manufacturers will soon do the same in the sub-$200 space. We have long argued there is no way back; the adapt or die moment has passed.

Google knows this, yet it is still shelling out $12.5bn on Motorola Mobility. In reality, this deal has very little to do with the US handset maker’s mobile phones, which are frankly pretty terrible. If Google had wanted a device manufacturer it would have plumped for something better like Taiwan’s HTC.

Nokia Jumps as Google-Motorola Deal May Move Handset Makers to Microsoft

Nokia Oyj (NOK1V), the world’s biggest maker of mobile phones by volume, climbed the most in 1 1/2 years in Helsinki trading after Google Inc. (GOOG) agreed to acquire Motorola Mobility Holdings Inc. for about $12.5 billion.

Google, whose Android software powers handsets made by Motorola Mobility and manufacturers including Samsung Electronics Co. and LG Electronics Inc. (066570), will win wireless patents it needs to compete against Apple Inc.’s iPhone. The linkup may shift some Android phone manufacturers away from Google to consider platforms such as Microsoft Corp. (MSFT)’s Windows Phone, which was adopted by Nokia this year, said Lee Simpson, an analyst at Jefferies International in London.

Apple's iPad Poised to Dominate Through 2020?

Everything's coming up roses for Apple's iPad in 2011, and that's bound to continue for at least the next decade or so, predicts Needham & Company analyst Charlie Wolf. In fact the investment firm just bumped its target price for Apple's stock to $540 and projects sales of 54 million iPads and 108 million iPhones in 2012.

According to Wolf, the iPad has the market by the horns until at least 2020. This year, he says Apple's tablet will walk off with a whopping 85% of the market. While that number declines rolling forward, it'll still be as high as 72.5% (101 million units shipped) in 2015 and a still-majority 60% (140 million units shipped) when 2020 rolls around.

Some of us care that Nokia is taking Symbian away

Rachel posted yesterday on the news that Nokia is dropping Symbian and Series 40 phones from the North American market. While most people likely won’t care there are still a few of us who loved to use these Nokia smartphones and feature phones because they still have a lot to offer and had innovations not seen on smartphones today.

HP TouchPad price permanently reduced by $100

Been on the fence about picking up an HP TouchPad since its launch last month? This news may finally push you over the edge: HP today announced that it's permanently slashing the price of both models of the TouchPad by $100. That means that the 16GB Wi-Fi-only model will now set you back $399.99, while the 32GB variant will be priced at $499.99. The updated pricing is already live on HP's webstore.

Visa Unveils Plan to Speed Adoption of Mobile Phone-Based Payment Systems

Visa Inc. (V) unveiled plans to encourage U.S. retailers to shift to checkout systems that let consumers pay using their mobile phones, as the biggest payment network aims to jump ahead of rivals and curb credit-card fraud.

The company said it will let merchants that switch to credit-card readers supporting so-called EMV technology forego costly annual security certifications. Starting in 2015, it will also stop requiring banks to reimburse most merchants for some types of credit-card fraud, which can be prevented by using EMV systems, Visa said in a statement yesterday.

Maxx Mobile to launch 40 new handsets by March 2012

MUMBAI: With an aim to increase its share in the domestic mobile phones handset market, home-grown Maxx Mobile plans to launch up to 40 more models this fiscal, a top company official said.

"We plan to launch around 40 models by March, 2012. We will be launching four models in the next quarter in the smartphone series.

LG Prada K2 makes a quick appearance on video

Last month we were treated to our first peek at the LG Prada K2 in the form of a leaked render, which was nice at the time, but you know what's better than an image? Video. And that's precisely what the folks at Pocketnow got their hands on today. The clip is a tad blurry and rather short, but it does offer up another look at an unannounced smartphone, and that's good enough for us. You can check out the full video below.

Is the BlackBerry Bold 9900 priced out of the consumer range at $349.99?

We have been waiting to see RIM release the BlackBerry Bold 9900 and I was seriously considering the mobile phone device to go along with my PlayBook, but if the pricing shown in this leaked T-Mobile document is true then it looks like I am not going to be joining the BlackBerry community anytime soon. $349.99 before the $50 mail-in rebate (can’t these things just die?) with a 2-year contract is crazy pricing on a phone that runs a slightly modified version of an old OS and IMHO cannot compete with iOS, Android, and Windows Phone devices.

When a consumer can pick up the latest and greatest smartphones at their carrier store for $199 I don’t know why they would even consider the Bold 9900 at $100 more. I wonder if RIM is giving up on consumer market with the Bold 9900 so they can price some of their other upcoming BB OS 7 devices down in the $199 or less range. I know the initial cost of a smartphone is not the defining cost and has little effect on the contract cost that we pay here in the US, but it is a mental thing and does offer a comparison point with other smartphones. If it does launch at $199 with a contract and in the $400 off contract price, then I still may consider one.

HTC Salsa Launch – Social Networking Made Simple

Sony Ericsson Xperia neo: Review

Sony Ericsson has a lot riding on the Xperio neo, which arrived in Australia late last month. It’s the company’s most recent top-of-the-line handset, with a focus on an all-round great performance.

Design

Sony Ericsson has invested a lot of time in making the Xperia neo as sleek and modern-looking as possible. Colour-wise, and the neo comes with a (very) dark blue metallic tint, that in most light really comes across as being black. Interestingly, Sony has opted to make the standard Android back, home and menu buttons at the bottom of the front of the device physical — they’re not touch-sensitive like on most other Android phones coming out at the moment. Depending on your preference, you’ll either love them or hate them, but they match the style of the phone and the chrome look is suitable with the dark blue backing.

HTC To Launch 8 New Smartphones in the Next Quarter

Taiwanese smartphone maker HTC plans to launch six to eight new smartphones in the third quarter.

Continuing its upward trajectory, HTC exceeded projections and reported smartphone sales of 12.11 million units in Q2 — a 25% increase compared to the first quarter.

HTC CEO Peter Chou says Q3 will be even stronger, as the company expects to sell 13.5 million smartphone units.

RIM Launches Three New BlackBerries

Research in Motion has launched BlackBerry Bold 9900/9930 and two new Torch models, BlackBerry Torch 9810 and 9850/9860.

The two BlackBery Bolds, as well as the new BlackBerry 7 OS all of these devices are based on, were originally introduced back in May.

Best mobile phones for chatting and texts

Best mobile phones for chatting and texts are two of the most frequently performed functions on a mobile phone, especially by young users. However, traditional alpha numeric mobile phones are not suitable for the purpose, and apparently not everyone (at least in India) is comfortable with touchscreen phones for texting either.

Hence, for audiences whose mobile phone usage involves heavy texting and chatting, we've shortlisted the best handsets that have Qwerty keypads and are value for money devices. We've aimed to stay within a budget of Rs 15,000.

MAXX unveils MS727 Dual-SIM Mobile Phone

Vodafone To Launch Facebook Phone In India, What’s The Point?

Vodafone is all set to launch its own low cost Facebook mobile phone offering called 555 Blue in India. The company has already launched the mobile phone in UK for a price of $100 (around Rs.4,500). Although the Indian price and release date is not yet confirmed by Vodafone, it could be launched by the end of this month.

The highlight of the device is that it promises to offer the users a customized Facebook experience (it will automatically update Facebook every 20 minutes) and is basically for the die-hard social networking fans. It has a dedicated Facebook ‘F’ button, which can be used for a number of functions like instantly posting a status update (with photos or links) from the browser.

Check your cell phone bill for charge that funds free cell phones for others

If you qualify for government assistance programs like Medicaid, food stamps or public housing, odds are you qualify for a free cell phone.

The program is paid for through the Universal Service Fund, created by the FCC about 15 years ago, and is intended to give communities across the country affordable telecommunication services.

Latest Buzz: New iPhone Is Radical Change

The next iPhone will be a much more radical departure from the iPhone 4 than Apple-watchers are expecting, according to Mobile Fun. The blog says it has received what it believes are genuine blueprints for the iPhone 5. The new phone, widely expected to be released in September, will have a larger, edge-to-edge screen, a curved rear panel, and a hole in the back which could be the new location for the device's antenna, the blog says.

Where to Find Cool Mobile Phone Skins

When you take your brand-new mobile phones out of the box, it looks plain. Everyone who has the same model sees the same thing you see, and even different phones look an awful lot alike these days. Boring.
If you're looking for an interesting way to spruce up your cell phone or smartphone and protect it at the same time, a cell phone skin could be the perfect solution. Unlike silicone or plastic cases, skins are more like stickers (don't worry, they're removable) that don't add any bulk to your phone.

They simply shield your handset's shiny case and screen from scratches, and add some decoration to make it look unique. New York Mets fan? You can put the team's pinstripes and logo on your Android. Crushing on Justin Bieber? Why not slap his mug on your iPhone?

How To Factory Reset the Blackberry Playbook

Your Blackberry Playbook not playing nice? Wish you could undo everything on it and start from scratch? No problem, let me help you with that.

In the video below, I show you how to go in to the Blackberry Playbook’s settings and erase all the applications you’ve downloaded, all the data you’ve stored, and just bring the device back to factory specifications. Why do this? Well, if your device isn’t working the way you think it should, or if you just feel the need to wipe the slate clean, this procedure will do that for you.

Google Offers FREE Nexus S Today Only

The Google Search front-page has almost always remained pristine which makes today’s addition of a one-line advert hard to miss. But don’t worry, the search giant isn’t starting to accept front-page ads, instead, the company is trying to plug its own Nexus S handset, which it is offering for free—but for today only.



The Samsung produced Nexus S is the flagship Google-branded Android phone that runs the latest OS update and sports NFC-chips. Being NFC-enabled, it is also the first phone to work with the company’s recently launched mobile payment system called Google Wallet. The system lets you make payments such as buying groceries or picking up a cup of coffee at participating retailers by simply tapping your phone on an NFC terminal.

How to get the most out of Android phone

Choosing an iPhone is easy: do you want black or white? Buying an Android phone is more challenging, but potentially more rewarding. Google’s operating system can now be found on dozens of mobile phones, not to mention tablet computers, e-book readers and even television.

Whether you’re looking for a palm-spanning multimedia powerhouse or just a compact, competent smart phone, there’s an Android handset for you. But not every Android phone is created equal. A good place to start is to look at the version of Android a phone is running. Anything running version 1.6, 1.5 or — we shudder to think of it — older won’t be able to run many of the latest, shiniest apps, such as Google Maps Navigation.

Maxx Scope MT150 touchscreen phone arrives in India‎

iPhone 4 Prices Cut To Make Way For iPhone 5?

Target and Radio Shack are dropping the price on the iPhone 4, in a move many believe is a stock clearing measure to make room for the iPhone 5.

Radio Shack is currently running a week-long promotion that drops the price of the 16 GB iPhone 4 to US$169 and the 32 GB iPhone 4 to $269. You can cut these prices by an extra $100 if you bring in an older iPhone model as a trade.

Nokia, still a market leader

According to the latest quarterly report issued by research firm IDC (International Data Corporation), the global mobile phone market grew by 11.3% year over year, as in second quarter of 2011 were delivered, worldwide, 365.4 million units – compared with 328.4 million units shipped in the second quarter of 2010.

But the figures were below predictions of the company, aimed at an increase of 13.3% for Q2 – lower than the growth of 16.8% recorded in 2011.

Are dual-core phones really worth your cash?

There was a time we used to brag about computers which had dual-core processors. Now it's the case with mobile phones. Dualcore phones seem to be the flavor of the season. And despite their Rs 25k+ price tag, there's no dearth of people lining up for the latest toy. In fact, Samsung's much awaited sequel to their hugely successful Galaxy S - the S2 - sold out within hours of its launch. A friend tweeted that he finally got his hands on the elusive toy after picking up one online. He had been to three metro cities that week but returned empty-handed.

The incident brought up the moot question - do we need such a powerful phone? While it's okay to go gaga over the cool multimedia features and multi-tasking abilities of all three phones in this segment - first off the block LG Optimus 2X P990 and the HTC Sensation provide the S2 company - what is the basic use of a mobile phone? To stay in touch and make our life easier.

Upcoming Gadgets Worth Waiting For

When it comes to new technology, the old adage is true: Waiting is the hardest part. Technology manufacturers have a habit of getting us psyched about forthcoming products, but leaving us hanging when it comes to actual release specifics. Though frustrating, it’s a smart marketing tactic, really. Get people talking about your gadget, building up so much anticipation that we can barely wait to get a hold of the thing. The annual Consumer Electronics show is a perfect example.

We see tons of cool tech every January, companies let us put our hands all over it, but what we rarely see are concrete dates. For every gadget at the show, there’s a nebulous future release timeframe, and we often don’t see it in the lab for testing until many months later—and sometimes not at all. In the interim, we wait.

Nokia Remains World's First Maker of Smartphones

The worldwide mobile phone market grew 11.3% year over year in the second quarter of 2011, despite a weaker feature phone market, which declined for the first time since Q3 2009. Nokia Corp. remained the top maker of mobile phone despite of major losses of the market of smartphones.

According to the International Data Corp. (IDC), vendors shipped 365.4 million units in Q2 2011 compared to 328.4 million units in the second quarter of 2010. The 11.3% growth was lower than IDC's forecast of 13.3% for the quarter and was also below the 16.8% growth in Q1 2011.

RIM improves social experiences through BBM 6

I haven’t personally owned a BlackBerry smartphone for long enough to get into the whole BBM craze, but understand it is quite addictive and I did enjoy it when I was using an eval BB for the last few months and if RIM ever releases the Bold 9900 I may get one for myself. Tonight RIM announced BBM version 6 with greatly expanded social functionality that lets application developers integrate a BBM experience into their apps and services.

As you can see in videos on the BlackBerry Blog you can chat with friends on BBM within games, use Foursquare to check in and then notify a friend via BBM that you are there, and even share apps with friends via BBM 6.
