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.
With Google currently giving all of its web apps a long-needed overhaul, it was only a matter of time before the search giant finally got around to giving Gmail a lick of paint.
Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich Is Now Official: Will Be Available In November Alongside Galaxy Nexus
After announcing Galaxy Nexus, Google finally made Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich official. The said OS is specifically designed to run on this type of powerful hardware. Also, Samsung is confirming that Ice Cream Sandwich's native resolution is 1280x720, 16:9 aspect ratio. The Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0 will be available in November this year.
Although possibly overshadowed by the Google/Samsung event later this evening, the Motorola DROID RAZR was unveiled for Verizon Wireless today. We've read rumors and got a glimpse of the full device floating around the web yesterday, but aside from the pretty picture, what is Motorola offering this time around?
I have been using Google Music service for months now and have found it very useful as it holds my current library on the web and allows me to access it and play it via web browser at work. For those of you using Android, like myself, it also gives ability to stream music via Bluetooth to the car audio, which is perfect for those long drives.
According to a report published recently, Google is looking to open a music store which will compete with similar services from Apple and Amazon.
You can't really be a geek and not have played one of the super-popular and mega-successful Grand Theft Auto games. Even back in the day when the title brought top-down action and a spot of attitude to the table, the Grand Theft Auto franchise was one revered by fans.
We're getting closer and closer to a Samsung/Google announcement, which we presume will be home to the new Nexus handset, complete with Google's brand new mobile operating system - Ice Cream Sandwich. Samsung and Google have already delayed the announcement once, reportedly due to Apple co-founder Steve Jobs' sad passing, but the event itself can't be too far off.
It seems Apple isn't the only company that can't keep its new smartphones under wraps without one finding its way to a stranger, via some form of bar. Now, Google and Samsung are getting in on the leaking-act, with a new, shiny Nexus Prime/Galaxy Nexus finding its way into the wrong hands.
