BlackBerry Has A Competion – Nokia E72

January 5th, 2010

Think of the best enterprise phone, and the first name that crosses your mind is the BlackBerry. BlackBerry has been topping the Smartphones market, and till date there has been no other cell phone that could equal the popularity of the BlackBerry phones. Not even Apple iPhone. Sure iPhones are very popular and you can see a good number of people flaunting the iPhone, but again it rarely meets the qualities of an enterprise phone.  But, this news totally had me excited – A phone that could be a BlackBerry Killer!

The author of a blog post speculates that there are 7 reasons why the Nokia E72 could outscore the BlackBerry phones. Lets take a quick read at all those super 4 reasons that I understood:

e-mail Feature :

Quick e-mails is one very important reasons why BlackBerry sells. But Nokia E72 is all set to give the e-mail feature of the BlackBerry a good fight Nokia E72 Could Be A BlackBerry Phone.

Great Battery Life :

The Nokia E72 has impressive battery life. Even after a lot of use, E72 requires charging it only two times a week, which is definitley an important feature.

Impressive Keyboard and Better Navi Key:

The keys on keypad are much easier to use.  And the menu scrolling space is restricted a smaller D pad area making it easier to use it. Both these qualities are something the BlackBerry Phones lack.

The MultiMedia Advanatge:

Nokia E72 has a 5.0 mega pixel camera, which ofcourse is something to go for. Yes, the sound quality may not be as good as the BlackBerry but who would buy an enterprise phone for sound quality reasons?

That was just 4 Whys that I could understand. For knowing all the 7 reasons why BlackBerry has a challenge (Nokia E72), you may check out 7 Reasons Why The Nokia E72 Could Be A BlackBerry Killer>.

Nokia Announcement: 2 New Cell Phones To Be Launched Soon

December 15th, 2009

Nokia is soon going to have two new phones in its portfolio. I was reading this blog and came across the announcement of the launch of new cell phones in India. Nokia, today, announced the launch of two new mobile phones – N97 Mini and N900 in India. Each of the cell phone has its own impressive features. However, N900 seems to be a little more exciting.

A brief review of N97 -

Nokia N97 is a pretty looking and nicely designed cell phone. But that’s it. On a lot of other things N97 doesn’t really score high. The keypad on the phone is not all that comfortable to use. The tiny keys can cause a lot of trouble.

So that was N97 for you. And interestingly, N97 would be advertised more widely than N900. The reason for this remains unknown to me. 

And now a quick peek into Nokia’s N900 -

This Nokia cell phone scores more than N97. Especially on the usability front. Unlike N97, the keypad is convenient and easy to use.  

One common thing the two phones, N97 and N900, have is the spacebar located on the right of the phones. When asked about this to the senior design manager, Mr. Jonne Harju, he told that the study indicates it is easier for one to use left thumb to press the spacebar key.

That makes it clear, N900 should be prefered over N97, but how good it will do in the market also depends on the pricing of it. The prices of both the cell phones have not been released. Also, Nokia promises to come out with many such interesting launches in 2010. And that all the releases are going to be different from each other. Hopefully it keeps up with its promise and we get to more many more nice, unique, with better functionality and, of course, cost-effective cell phones.

Smartphone – The Modern PDA

March 21st, 2009

Sometimes, it is easy to get lost in technological terms. There are instances where one term can apply to different subjects. One example of this is the term “mobile technologies.” Yes, it does refer to a dual-action processor found in laptops and desktop computers, but it also can refer to the use of technology that you take with you on the go, such as PDAs and Smartphones. This is an age where you have to be mobile if you are going to stay ahead.

A great example of a popular smartphone is this RIM BlackBerry Storm 9530 read RIM BlackBerry Storm 9530 Reviews here.

Life comes at you fast, especially in the realm of technology where there are terms that are continuously flying at you. Some have dual meanings, such as mobile technologies. Mobile technology can refer to a dual-action processor and it can refer to the mobile gadgets, such as PDAs and Smartphones. We are living in a mobile age and if you are going to stay in contact with your home and work, then you must be able to be contacted no matter where you are.

A good example of  a great piece of mobile technology is the iPhone This piece of machinery is top of the line when it comes to mobile technology. It has received rave reviews from panels, such as those found on www.azoomed.com.

Azoomed.com is a valuable tool that you can use when it comes time to buy your hand held device. They offer both editorial reviews and user reviews of different products that are currently on the market, along with reviews of older pieces of technology. One example of mobile technologies is the hand held devices produced by HTC. One in particular is the HTC Touch Pro. This device is top of the line and is currently being sold and manufactured around the world.

The reviews come from its outstanding performance and speed. The HTC Touch is operating on Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and has the capabilities of Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, along with a Qualcomm MSM7201A ARM Processor. The 2.8 inch screen is unbelievable with its color pixels and it features a replaceable battery to ensure that documents and other information are not lost when the battery dies. It also features a large quantity of memory and is equipped with Outlook, Word, Excel and Internet Explorer.

There are other mobile technologies on the market today that can be bought for far less than the HTC Touch Pro price tag. However, few can match its performance power. One of its chief competitors is Apple’s new iPhone 3g, which users have fallen in love with for its extra capabilities, such as the use of an iPod and a gaming Smartphone. Whatever you decide is up to your own unique preferences and your own personal needs.

There are plenty of mobile technologies out there when it comes time to make your decision on which model and series to buy. Do not let price be the only determining factor in your decision. Yes, some models are going to cost more than others, but the price may be worth it in the end depending on what you need. A great example of this is the RIM Blackberry Curve 8330 read RIM Blackberry Curve 8330 Reviews here.
