Hello there, everyone! It’s time to do another post in our series of comparison posts in which, well, we compare stuff. In this comparison post, ‘stuff’ is the three major mobile operating systems - iOS 5, Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and Windows Phone 7.5 Mango - and it is their feature-list which is compared.
While Google has seen undoubted success with its Android smartphone operating system, it has seen much more limited success when trying to branch out onto tablets. If the tablet market has proved to be a difficult one to crack for the search giant, then it's probably safe to say that Google TV is what some may call an unadulterated failure.
We came across an unbelievably cool app/script today. It’s a tool that, I believe, is something every Android enthusiast - particularly those who flash custom ROMs regularly - must include in their utility apps toolbox alongside apps like ROM Manager and Titanium Backup.
It's all go at Google these days. They've just shown off their latest version of the Android mobile operating system; Ice Cream Sandwich, and their hardware partner Samsung has announced the Galaxy Nexus as the first handset to sport it. Now it seems there's another Android Nexus phone packing Ice Cream Sandwich, and it's not the one you expected.
Owners of the Nexus S experience smartphone will be glad to know that Google has officially confirmed that the next major version of Android i.e. 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich will be coming to their device “soon”.
One of the most attractive features of Google’s Android OS is just how customizable it is. Enthusiasts can personalize every nook and cranny of their device so that no two Android devices look exactly the same. Thanks to its relative “openness”, you can make your Android phone look like a Windows Phone 7 device, a Symbian OS-powered device and, of course, an iPhone.
At the joint Google-Samsung event in Hong Kong today, the hotly-anticipated Galaxy Nexus was finally unveiled alongside Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
Oh Samsung, why do you do it to yourselves? As if having more lawsuits going on than The Pirate Bay wasn't enough to contend with for one day. The Korean firm has now managed to put its foot in it once more, this time when showing off its new media player, the Galaxy Player 5.0.
We came across an unusually powerful app earlier today: it’s called WiFiKill and it lets users on rooted Android smartphones kick off other people from WiFi networks so they can have all the bandwidth to themselves.
We’ve been doing a lot of comparison posts recently, mostly involving the comparing of one feature of the iPhone 4S against a comparable feature of another smartphone and we’ll be doing one more comparison today: the video recording performance of the iPhone 4S versus that of the Galaxy S II.
