Galaxy Nexus from Samsung with Google Android OS
Oct 20th
Samsung unveiled the first smart phone ‘Galaxy Nexus’ running on Google’s latest version of the Android operating system. Samsung and Google introduced the high-end model at an event in Hong Kong, after delaying the launch last week as a tribute to the late Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. Apple is Samsung’s biggest customer for microprocessors.
The Galaxy Nexus will be the first phone to have the new Android 4.0 operating system with a 4.65-inch high-definition “super” AM-OLED display and a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor and features such new functions as face recognition to unlock the phone.
The Galaxy Nexus enables you to voice type. It has an in-line spell checker and talk to text where the user can type anything by speaking. The Galaxy Nexus comes with a 5 mp camera, with zero shutter lag and can record full HD video. It comes with the Android Beam feature, an near field communication based technology that allows you to quickly share photos, maps, contacts and videos by simply tapping two phones together. More >
Apple iCloud: Apple’s new revealation at WWDC
Jun 7th
Apple revealed the iCloud for iPhones, iPads and ipods on Monday at the Worldwide Developers Conference. Apple CEO Steve Jobs called iCloud as their “next big insight.”
The iCloud is Apple’s new wireless data sync service that syncs contacts, calendars, photos, videos and mail across devices.
“iCloud stores your content in the cloud and wirelessly pushes it to all your devices,” says Mr. Steve Jobs.
Previously, users had to copy music files onto their devices.
Jobs described the process, “If I acquire a song, I buy it right on my iPhone, I want to get that to my other devices. I pick up my iPad and it doesn’t have that song on it. So I have to sync my iPhone to my Mac, then I have to sync my other devices to the Mac to get that song.”
“Keeping these devices in sync is driving us crazy,” he said to laughter on Monday.
But now with the iCloud, “uploading” will essentially be unnecessary.
“So now, if I get something on my iPhone, it’s sent up to the cloud immediately. Let’s say I take pictures … and they are now pushed down to my devices … automatically,” Jobs explained. More >
