A Comparison between Nokia N97 and HTC G17

Last month, Nokia returned to the American market with a fury to regain its position with Lumia 900. Due to the unprecedented support from AT&T, Lumia 900 was warmly welcomed. According to recent news, the demand for Lumia 900 has far exceeded its supply and many shops have run out of their stocks.

However, in Britain, Lumia 900 arouses no public interest. However, Nokia has no time to concern about it because the future of the outdated tycoon in America is tied to the fate of Lumia 900. Nokia finally seeks for incarnation with Windows Phone after being ruined by Symbian in recent years.

Fairly speaking, Symbian contributed a lot to the success of Nokia in the past. However, one must admit that Symbian mobile is totally incompetent for the market in recent years comparing to iPhone and Android mobile. To further prove my view, I will make a comparison between Nokia N97 and HTC G17.

1. Wi-Fi connection

As one of the most powerful Symbian mobiles released by Nokia, N97 cannot even match with HTC G17 in this field. I need to type the password of the Wi-Fi every time I use it. With HTC G17 you can do it once and for all. This is really annoying because when I get to my friend's home, I need to ask him the password again and again.

2. E-book viewing

Basically, with HTC G17 you will feel like reading a real book. A concern of the virtual page will be curled as you page down. Each page is made as the same size of the screen so that you just need to finish one page and turn to another. You always know you want to view the contents in the next page

However, as I use N97 to read e-books, I need to press the down button to skip to the next line. Sometimes I even need to find out what I want to read in the page because so many words in the page has dazzled my eyes.

3. Camera

To be honest, the camera of N97 is quite good and you can even make photographs at night. However, it is not that good comparing to HTC G17 which can help you to make 3D photos.Also known as HTC Evo 3D, a glass-free 3D mobile, the camera of HTC G17 is of great competiveness in the market.

4. Online video watching

It is easy for users to watch online videos with HTC G17 because there are relative apps to help it. However, there are no such apps for N97. In order to watch those online videos, Adobe Flash version above 10.0 is required. However, Nokia N97 can only support Flash Lite and there is no way for N97 to upgrade the Adobe Flash.

So even you have Wi-Fi connection, you can't enjoy online videos with N97. A feasible way for you is to download and convert YouTube videos to mp4 files for Nokia N97 with Moyea Flv Downloader if you really want to watch some YouTube videos via N97.

All in all, one can trace the great disadvantages of Nokia N97 comparing to HTC G17. Symbian is an important factor for the fall of Nokia in recent years. Luckily, Nokia realizes it and manages to make self-redemption with Windows Phone like Lumia 900.

3 Battle Fields Between Microsoft And Apple

Microsoft used to be the largest technological company in the world before Apple. With the elevation of the share price, Apple successfully got Microsoft's throne. In order to regain its place, the battle between Microsoft and Apple is turning white-hot.

It is interesting that although Apple brought the new concept of personal computer to the world with Apple II, it is Microsoft who has changed personal computer. It is even irony that though Microsoft has first raised the concept of tablet, it is Apple who makes outstanding performance in this field.

This year, with the debut of Windows 8 and Lumia 900, the battle fields between Microsoft and Apple has increased to three: the battle between Windows Phone and iOS in mobile, the battle between Zune and iPod in Mp3 field and the battle between Windows 8 and Mac in tablet. This post will take you to have a view at those three battle fields between Microsoft and Apple.

1. Zune vs iPod

Apple wins over Microsoft in this field because Microsoft has announced its discontinuation of Zune in 2011. After ten-year evolution, iPod is a dominator in the market while as its competitor; Zune has finished its journey in five years.

Microsoft has to give in in this battle for the bad performance of Zune. However, there are three reasons for Zune's failure, all related to the market strategy of Microsoft. Either Zune or iPod can make full of its function without converters because they can just support limited video files. So you may just as well convert video files to mp4 files with Video Converter.

2. Windows Phone vs iOS

The competition in mobile market are ought to be the stories between Nokia, SumSung, HTC and Apple. However, Microsoft joins in the battle with Windows Phone, making it the biggest enemies of Apple in all fields.

While Apple has earned a lot of money with iPhone, the future of Windows Phone is still unknown. However, many experts predict that the fate of Windows Phone is decided by the fate of Lumia 900. It seems that at least at present, the future of Windows Phone is very promising. Till the debut of iPhone 5, we will know whether Windows Phone is powerful enough to challenge iOS or not.

3. Windows 8 vs Mac

After the popularization of iPad, Microsoft has to pay more attention to the product it once ignored: the tablet. In March 2012, Microsoft debut Windows 8, which can support tablet. It indicates the beginning of the battle between Apple and Microsoft in tablet. However, the future of Windows 8 is not appreciated by many.

There are too many hurdles lying before Windows 8. Windows 8 is not only viewed as a vulnerable system but also a system with small potential market. At present, Windows 8 is accessible to iPad with Win8 Metro Testbed. Can Windows 8 be a dominator in tablet market? We'll see.

We can find something in common in all those fields: Apple is the champion while Microsoft is the challenger. The fate of Microsoft will be decided by its performance in those three fields (actually two).

With The Rise Of Its Component, How Will iPhone 5 React

The debut of The new iPad in March successfully drew people's attention. This updated version of iPad 2 has disappointed some people with so few changes comparing to iPad 2. Recently, the update of Apple TV attracted the world's attention again. However, it seems that Apple disappoints people again.

Every product of Apple can be so influential because Apple can always shock people with its technological innovation. How influential Apple can be? Even without the release of any products, Apple is discussed by many recently. People are expecting the new generation of its most successful product: iPhone.

Rumors about iPhone 5 are spreading. The same thing happens to iPad before March this year. It is said that iPhone 5 will be released in October. Usually, the release of a new generation of iPhone can help Apple earn much money. Since Apple release iPhone series, its share price has jumped to over $630. Some experts even predict that its share price will exceed $1000 this year. However, there are too many hurdles lying before iPhone 5.

Nokia has release Lumia 900 as an attempt to become one of the top mobile sellers in America. Lumia 900 owns a good start by being the best seller in Amazon in just a few days. Once Nokia can regain its position with Lumia 900, Apple will have to share the potential consumers of iPhone 5 with Nokia. The Windows Phone system will soon shares the potential users of iOS. To some extent, the fate of iPhone 5 is connected to the fate of Lumia 900.

Android, a powerful competitor for iOS, is another hurdle lying before iPhone 5. It is reported that Android mobile occupies over 60% market share in China, lagging iPhone far behind. The release of Samsung Galaxy last year proved that it was no less charming than iPhone. In order to be a new legend, iPhone 5 must convince people that they are far sexier than Android mobile which is quite difficult.

Nokia is a potential enemy while Android mobile is a powerful enemy who is strengthening its power. Under this condition, iPhone 5 must prove itself with some technological innovations as its predecessors have done.

However, based on the performance of The new iPad and the update to Apple TV, iPhone 5 may disappoint people again. Maybe it will become an updated version of iPhone 4S by just making a few modifications in its design. If iPhone 5 disappoints people again, it will be a red alert for Apple.

With the rise Of its competitors, how will iPhone 5 react? Before the release of iPhone 5, no one knows the answer. However, that will be another story. Currently, iPhone is quite a useful tool for entertainment especially for watching videos.

In order to help you enjoy videos with iPhone, you can refer to four tools: Video Converter, DVD Ripper, Moyea YouTube FLV Downloader Pro and Moyea SWF to iPhone Converter.

Lumia 900 and Nokia 5230, Best Selling Smart Phones In History

Lumia 900, released in April 8, sees a promising future. It ranks first in Amazon's best-selling phones in just a few days under the condition that people's attention is paid to Easter Bunny. Symbian has proved its failure towards iOS and even Android and Windows Phone becomes the new challenger. It seems that Lumia 900 will to determine the fate of Nokia and Windows Phone in the USA.

Nokia has got a good chance to regain its market position in America with Lumia 900. Thanks to the unprecedented support of AT&T, one of the biggest carriers in America who has devoted to publicizing Lumia 900 at the largest scale ever, Lumia can be quickly known by people in America. What's more, the phone sees no competitors in recent time because neither Samsung nor Apple intends to release its latest products.

However, experts predict that Lumia 900 gets only 8 weeks to prove itself. After that, the latest Galaxy and HTC may share the market. If Lumia 900 can't impress people in this period, Nokia can stop dreaming to be one of the major phone sellers in America.

Good reputations as it gets, it now receives complains about its internet connection function and critizes about its call quality and minor design flaws. Anyway, Lumia 900 bears too much expectation that it can't lose this battle.

Nokia, once the tycoon in phone sell market has declined in recent years with downgrading reputation of Symbian. However, in a list of best-selling phones in history, Nokia phones occupy top seven places. Most of them are low-end phones, so what's the best-selling smart phone in history?

You probably know the answer, yes, it is Nokia 5230. It is a high end smart phone with the price of low-end phone. Do you want to know how popular it is? 58 million units of iPhone 4 have been sold so far, about one third of that of Nokia 5230. Let's have a view at this amazing phone.

As you can see, Nokia 5230 owns almost the same appearance as that of Nokia 5800. What's more, their functions are almost the same as well. However, Nokia 5230 can't support Wi-Fi and it owns a camera of 2 million pixels while that of 5800 amounts to 320 million pixels.

The 3.2 capacitive touch screen can help you to enjoy videos better and the 256MB ROM and 128MB RAM are exactly the same as Nokia N97.

However, as a Symbian phone, Nokia 5230 owns the same defects as Nokia N97 such as fail to support large swf file with the inserted Flash Player. So you need to convert the swf file to mp4 file for your phone.

Anyway, Symbian is a fading old legend and Windows Phone is replacing its place to be the new legend. If Lumia 900 successes, it will exceed Nokia 5230 one day to be the best selling smart phone.
