The first undoubted plus of the One X is the power that eminates from the processing.  With the first quad-core processor to be included in a smartphone, the One X operates with a true smoothness that really can’t be matched by anything outside of the tablet market.  Whether you’re viewing the latest YouTube videos or reading up on your e-books, there is a fluidity in operation here that really can’t be matched.

Secondly, the new integration of Beats technology is almost illegally exciting.  With doctor Dre’s headphones to be found on every third head in the UK and the US, the inclusion of a pair with every One X is a seriously big deal.  What’s even cooler is the integration of the technology, meaning that with the press of a button, the sound going through the headphones is instantly improved tenfold.  It’s a superb feature, and one that will make the One X an instant favorite amongst audiophiles.

The screen is also excellent: quite possibly the finest one we’ve seen on a mobile device thus far in terms of clarity and life-like display.  At 4.7 inches, it’s a whopper in terms of mobile screens, using a 720p display in order to make it’s presence felt.  Whilst it doesn’t quite have the same beautiful color display of the AMOLED screens that are favored by Samsung, its clarity is well worth the slight sacrifice.

Are there flaws?  Well, yes, there are.  Firstly, the lack of removable storage (what I like to call ‘the Apple sin’) is a real bugbear.  Essentially, this leaves you completely stuck with what you’ve got, and rules out the smaller HD models for anyone who likes to keep movies and music on their phones.  Bad show indeed.

Overall, though, it seems hard to argue with the HTC One X.  As long as you’re able to get around it’s fairly substantial bulk (that screen size comes at a cost), it’s a superb, sleek and easy-to-use piece of technology.  Good work.

What many people didn’t know was that Steve Jobs hated Android and held a strong belief that it was plagiarized from their iOS. He was angry, frustrated and wanted to lay waste Android for what it was. He told his autobiographer that android was a grand theft and he was willing to go to any length to fight this war. He threatened the creators of android saying he would not leave this matter alone.

iPhone Vs Samsung

Apple Inc that has a business worth 8 billion dollars with Samsung on components sued the company over potential theft of design and copying the iPad designs. Samsung is not only one of the leading electronics manufacturers but also has Android OS in their tablets and cellular phones. One reason why tablets and Samsung phones have been able to capture market is not only the less cost relative to that offered by Apple Inc but also the OS. Many people now prefer to use Android and not iOS. This means the iOS which was meant to be the only one in the market faced stiff competition and also had to share the market with android based electronics which many companies like Samsung were making.

War of Attrition

Even though Apple Inc has sued both Samsung and Motorola companies for the usage of Android it may be as vulnerable to damages as these two companies. Since the days of Steve Jobs when the litigation against other companies accused of stealing or duplicating Apple Inc technology, the company has also lost many rounds. The reason it has become a war of attrition is that all companies involved in the legal battle may have to pay damages if the court rules in favor of any one of them. That is to say Apple may have to face remaking or paying for its technology that it has fundamentally said was copied.

The Fight Continues

Even if these companies do come together after a settlement, the battle between Google Android and iOS of Apple is likely to go on forever. They both will be in the race to get market shares in both the tablet and smartphone platforms. Android being supplied freely and being open source has a tremendous advantage that it is used by many of the major electronics manufacturers and it can easily take the market share. Also the fact that Android has more apps on its free category in the Google play, the alternative to the app market, it poses great threat to the iPhone sales.

So, Will the Galaxy Player 70 Plus Be a Real Threat to the iPod?

Let’s see… Apple got a bit lazy the last time when they decided to release a new version of the famous iPod Touch and basically added no significant changes to this still pretty popular gadget. Many iPod enthusiasts were not very pleased when they found out that Apple only added a new white version of the gadget – and this was pretty much all they changed. So, will the Galaxy Player 70 Plus be a threat to iPod? Well, yes and no. Namely, Samsung new PMP has been announced in March 2012, and it was announced only for the South Korean market. This means that the western markets will not be affected by this release just yet, and Apple still has time to think about releasing the new version of the iPod along with the rumored release of the iPhone 5.

Samsung’s First Dual-Core Processor PMP

Samsung was not the first company to release a dual-core processor PMP because Sony beat them to this. However, the Galaxy Player 70 Plus is the first Samsung’s dual-core processor powered PMP, working at 1 GHz. The dual-core 1 GHz processor will bring a completely different experience to users, as they will be able to do more things on the 70 Plus, both simultaneously and generally. This powerful processor will offer them a chance to stream videos effortlessly, as well as use all the other functions of this PMP without any problems at all when it comes to speed and convenience.

What Else Does the Galaxy Player 70 Plus Have to Offer?

There is a 5-megapixel camera with the resolution of 2592 x 1944 pixels, and features such as Geo tagging, face detection, LED Flash, and so on. The 5-inch touchscreen has the resolution of 480 x 800 pixels and 16 million colors, as well as the multi touch feature. When it comes to memory, users will not be disappointed. Namely, this PMP has a 16 and a 32 GB version, and also features a MicroSD slot that supports memory cards of up to 32 GB. The PMP uses Androids Gingerbread operating system.

Is This PMP Worth Considering?

With announced prices of around $360 (16 GB) and $420 (32 GB), the Samsung Galaxy Player 70 Plus will not exactly be a bargain. Even though many people mistake this for a smartphone, the fact is that this gadget has no GSM support, so you will have to carry your cell phone with you along with the Galaxy Player 70 Plus – so the choice is up to you.

Well a basic difference between N9 & Lumia 800 is N9 comes on MeeGo operating system where as Lumia is on Windows 7.5 a.k.a Mango. Here is a quick review to a brilliant device which i have got hand’s on experience.

Nokia N9 Specifications:

The official nokia n9 press release from Nokia Pakistan confirms the features as listed below:

A MeeGo Operating System,
A 3.9" AMOLED touchscreen,
8 Megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics
16/64 GB built-in memory
Dolby Digital Plus decoding
Dolby Headphone
Availabe Colors: Black, Cyan & Magenta
Free GPS application included (Drive app)

Nokia N9 : Design

Nokia N9 is a beautiful awesome looking phone with sleek and stylish design, however its much like its predecessor the Nokia N8 (check iTechGiz Nokia N8 previous post here). However the design was some how very much like the previous model but you cannot say it is complete from the previous design as N8 comes with a home screen button and QWERTY keyboard underneath the screen, whereas N9 is a complete button-less phone on main screen.

Nokia N9 : Software

Also called the successor to Nokia N900, N9 runs on MeeGo 1.2 Harmattaan and it the very first phone of its kind manufactured by Nokia carrying MeeGo OS. It was no doubt a promising open-source OS available (as N900 carries MeeGo 5) but the growing technology and OS competition will radically put it aside or it would have to be so powerful to climb up the competition.

Nokia N9 is undeniably comes with excellent software that consumes its hardware efficiently. The 1GHz Cortex A8, TI OMAP 3630 chipset processor runs like a fluid even on multiple applications running. This is a single core processor which truly supports multi-tasking capabilities.

Nokia N9 : Design

Nokia Lumia 800 borrowed the design of Nokia N9 with slight changes that too minimal to accept. The most inspiring this was the concept of no button on screen surprised me when i hold the phone and was just wondering how could we go back to home screen. Here is the introduction of new feature called Nokia Swipe, It just like swiping your finger end to end on screen and your would be directed towards home screen. Nokia N9 comes with only 3 hardware button i.e. Volume up, volume down and power button all placed on right hand side of the phone.

Nokia N9 : Features

The absence of physical button on Nokia N9 did ‘not cost any problem to me all it require a SWIPE on the phone to navigate between home screen, apps and task manager. In-order to exit an app you need to swipe your finger edge to edge and it will bring you to the home screen. In order to wake up your device from lock mode is to double tap on display screen, well you need to remember some tricks when using the device.

Other than swipe, Nokia N9 also comes with NFC (Near Field Communication) technology, which is indeed a future technology for pairing devices. With just "bump" or "touch" of two devices, certain action could be performed such as sharing of photo’s, songs broadcasting songs to NFC-enable speakers or even transacting payments, playing multi-player games and many many more. I assume N9 is proud to endowed with this amazing feature.

Nokia N9 : Camera

The camera is quite impressive as it take beautiful pictures showing good color reproduction, fast focus and simple shooting mechanism works well. However i noticed that under low light condition the camera does not perform that well as expected, but this issue came out when i compared the result with my normal camera else it is unnoticeable. Off course the camera is not a DSLR rather its the top echelon of smartphone cameras.

Nokia N9 : Battery

Nokia N9 battery life is decent as most smartphones unless you use to its extremes, however if you use your phone as internet hotspot functionality the battery would be drained out within a day, otherwise it managed a couple of days with prompting a low battery notification.

Nokia N9 : Pricing

Nokia N9 is available in Pakistan market with a price tag of Rs.49,900.

Conclusion:

My complete experience with Nokia N9 on MeeGo 1.2 operating system was most continent and fascinating. If your wants are just limited and you’re after and excellent looking phone, N9 would be a fair deal, although Nokia’s going to have a head to head battle with most convincing mass market to buy N9 rather than consumer friendly iPhone 4S. In short, the best phone with a very limited future.

MacRumours had their hand’s on iPad 3 leaked display panel’s and states as no more evidence on physical screen size for iPad 3 as it is same as 9.7” in diagonal found on iPad 1 and iPad 2.

But a close microscopic view against iPad 2, after examining both screens they were able to confirm that iPad 3 screen resolution is twice much as compared to iPad 2.

Since we only had a raw iPad 3 display with no method to power it, taking high quality photos of the pixels was difficult. Still, even with the relatively poor lighting, you can easily make out the pixels on each display (made up of red, green and blue elements). We highlighted a cluster of 4 pixels (2×2) from the iPad 2 to compare it to the same area on the iPad 3. On the iPad 3, the same cluster was occupied by 16 pixels (4×4) — exactly twice the resolution in each direction.

Extrapolating out, the iPad 3 screen should carry a full resolution of 2048×1536, exactly twice the linear resolution of the iPad 1 and iPad 2 which is 1024×768. Such a screen should be able to display much sharper images as compared to the previous generation iPads.

iPad 3 Release Expectations

According to Apple, iPad 3 is expected to release by 7th of March 2012 featuring Retina display, A6 chip (upgraded processor) and many more. Stay tuned with iTechGiz to find more on iPad 3.
