After a fellow from New York, Frank Fazio, make a class action lawsuit to Apple because he  felt deceived by Apple due to the performance of Aple Siri which do not comply with their advertisement, this time there is more coming to Apple, claiming about the performance of Siri. A class action lawsuit was happen in Los Angeles with similar charges.

 

'' Apple is making a national multimedia marketing campaign to spread ads information. It seem that Apple spreading some false information about the functionality of iPhone 4S voice command feature, Siri. 

 

Just for an example, in many television Apple's commercials , there were shown the consumers using the iPhone 4S via Siri feature to make an appointment, find a restaurant, and even to learn the classic rock songs  guitar cord In the ad. Apple describes that these tasks are easily accomplished by simply talking to their iPhone with Siri feature. 

 

However the  Apple advertising is categorized as cheating and stray away from the actual real functions and operational of Siri as experienced by some Apple iPhone 4S users fellow.

We will see how is Apple reaction later in the future about these mass class action lawsuit?

In that video, Microsoft explains the touchscreen technology gestures that will be applied on Windows 8, including hardware requirements needed in order to produce a stable performance.

Microsoft notes that Windows 8 will run on hardware that is currently on the market, while the PC with touchscreen capability will be required to integrate the upcoming five fingers.

The ' Fundamental Motion ' which Microsoft introduced earlier this year will not need more than two fingers. The movement gives the basic control over the performance of the interface, slide, selection, zooming, rotation and applications/systems command.

Although only two fingers that are required to perform core functions, Microsoft acknowledges the take two fingers ' movements can be very limiting ' application-specific applications. To avoid these limitations, Windows 8 will allow developers to use the hardware movement five fingers as input for application.

The reason Microsoft explain this direction is in response to the input from the developers, Microsoft managers ' write in the blog. ' The developers do not want to limit their creativity and they wanted to be free to use multi-touch gestures of the fingers. '

Some of the touchscreen on Windows 7 computer have some problems, such as problems of a swipe file to select, shift the movement and the movement of the edge of the slide.

HTC Android new smartphone, One X, is revealed for the first time at the MWC last 2012.  For specific versions such as in North America, this smartphone will be present with a dual-core Snapdragon S4 processor , while HTC One X international version will be based on Nvidia quad-core Tegra 3 processor.

HTC One X indeed have not been released to the global market.  This new HTC smartphone will be release in Canada first soon. There has been a HTC One X with dual-core Snapdragon chipset S4  performance benchmark result on the Andriod Central. This benchmark is done by a AT & T guy which had a pre release version of HTC One X smartphone. 

The benchmark score for HTC One X  leaves Galaxy Tab and Nexus far ahead.  The Benchmark score HTC One X was quite surprising. 

Just look at benchmark results where the score of HTC One X is about 4952, lead ahead from the Galaxy Tab and Nexus that has  score of around 2600.

Also in the Velamo benchmark, HTC One X score is much higher nearly 2500. We can see that HTC One X is still in the top score of the closest competitor, Asus Transformers Prime tablet powered with Tegra 3 that has a score of below 1500. It seems that dual core processor still best optimized with Android.

Lately Microsoft has open a challenge for it’s competitor to see who could perform a task with their smartphone, faster. It is called Smoked By Windows Phone.

For the challenge,Smoked By Windows Phone, Microsoft was offering cash prizes to those who could win the challenge. As reported that at Mobile World Congress 2012, Microsoft Windows Phone still dominated majority challenge tasks but not all.

Then there was Sahas Katta with his Galaxy Nexus running Android 4 challenged the Smoked By Windows Phone campaign at the tradeshow floor to Microsoft's retail stores.

The challenge is which OS could pull up two different cities weather faster. And Katta is already prepared with this challenge by disabled the lock screen on his Galaxy Nexus.

All Sahas Katta do was only pushed the power button to start home screen, which had two different weather applications running with two different cities. But the Microsoft store employee had to take two steps: Press the button to wake the screen, and then slide-to-unlock to get to the home screen. The result was Katta won the challenge with simple reason, that two steps takes longer than one, plain and simple.

But on the other side, the Microsoft store employees refused to accept Katta's win, eventually claiming that he was supposed to show the results of two different cities in two different states.

However the Katta took a complain about this unfair challenge result to Twitter and Microsoft's Windows Phone champion, Ben Rudolph, reached out and offered Katta a rematch, and later, a free laptop and Windows Phone for his tribulations.

Microsoft wants to show off to the people that it’s platform is light enough. For the contest to be 100% fair, the challenger should be the one suggesting the challenge, and both phones should have the same start position (i.e., either both have lock screens enabled or neither of them do).

We can tell that this challenge context is which OS could perform a task faster, not by step by step of running a task. It is fair to show the speed in accessing primary features on a smartphone, whether no lock screen or not.

But in the case of Smoked By Windows Phone Challenge above, Microsoft is already losing,  whether lock screen enabled or not, it is up to users as long it is comfortable.

As we all already know  from this some apps on Android use more than twice the power they actually need because the apps are  running ads on background. In this issue is the Angry Birds application is included which uses 70 percent of  battery power  to uploading information and downloading ads.

The Angry Birds Space is released yesterday with two version, the free and $2.99 premium HD version in Google Play.  Angry Birds has since switched to using Flurry for ads, but as the more recent study shows, it presents similar battery life problems. 

Comparing to Apple strategy which offer  more battery-efficient and unified advertising solution to advertisers, like iAds. Unfortunately, that example isn't entirely promising when it comes to actually bringing in more money. Apple has had to cut rates and ease terms for its iAds offering.

However the  Angry Birds Space is not the only apps  for battery life issues, it is just a common example simply because it has more popularity. Many expert says that paid apps on Android will make longer battery life but on the other side don't make much money in Google Play, because with  free version-with-ads apps running is intended to be much more profitable but it sacrifices the battery life of Android smartphone to the end user.

Advertising delivery for Angry Birds is done by Google (Rovio cannot influence this), so any reduction of mobile ad-associated signaling will have to be done by Google, not Rovio. The  strategy then, is to offer both paid and free versions on Google Play. That's exactly what Rovio is doing, but it's fairly clear that nobody should expect huge money from the paid version.

Google can build an ecosystem of consumers willing to spend their money directly, both the company and Android developers will be forced to depend on advertising revenue. In the meantime, Android users would be well-advised to save more battery life. 

The best solution is the most direct: Google needs to find ways to make Google Play a destination where consumers are willing to spend money. Looked at that way, there branding from Android Market to Google Play and the increased efforts to offer more types of content to purchase (including, it seems, movies) begin to make more sense.

Today, Apple fans still hunting for new iPad since the beginning of its launch.  But some users complained of the overheat problems incidence .

Related to the issue of which currently impinge Apple new tablet, they has defended by claiming that their new tablet goes well by it's specification in accordance with thermal issue.

It is normal by the way Apple defend themselves with their statement. However, what is now happen with Apple new tablet on some users certainly also could not to be considered trivial.

So, what is the main cause that makes the new iPad have excess heat when in use? According to Raymond Soneira, a DisplayMate Technologies official, saying via CNET, the fact that  LED Backlight is most likely the cause of the presence of such issues of excess heat on the Apple new iPad.

"The power of the new iPad LED when the maximum brightness is 2.5 times than the Apple iPad 2. They have to crank up the number of LED'S so that the peak brightness is the same as on the iPad 2. It really makes it warmer, "said Soneira.

He said further questions that "look at it this way, the LED on the new iPad is 2.5 times compared with the iPad 2, and battery 1.7 times larger, so that happens is that if you are running the new iPad at full brightness, durability of batteries is reduced because you just insert the battery [only] 70 percent more but you use the power more than 150 percent.

We all know Sony Japan did not quite succeed in selling its products with Tablets S and P.  However Sony Japan did not want to disappoint their users,  they bring Android update 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwiches for their  second tablet. 

 

The Sony's  new Tablet S is a great little mobile device. Now Sony are readying the release of Android 4.0.3 for their tablets, and it will come with a few interesting features yet unseen on Ice Cream Sandwich. We’ll let you know as soon as it starts in Canada.

According  from official Sony's website, they would bring Android 4.0.3 update for Tablets S and P at the end of April 2012. Beside the new features of Ice Cream Sandwich, both tablets also will acquire Blu-ray recorder application , which allows to record by Sony compatible Blu-ray recorders . In addition, users will be able to access the camera from the locked screen, edit images and do the photo shoot  in Sweep Panorama mode.

They’ve also added what could just be a poorly-translated phrase, “Small Apps,” which resemble the little mini widgets available at any time, from any application. Examples include a mini browser, calculator and remote control for your Bravia television. So the user will be able to run other applications, with a small window above the main application being accessed applications such as calculator. Users able to quickly access the calculator through a small window, without having to shut down a running application.

Apple iPad 3 gets  so great response since the beginning of it's official announcement. We can see on the Apple iPad prime sale in some countries, people  look so enthusiasm and excited. Many people are willing to get in a long line to buy this amazing tablet.

But lately it turned out that not all new iPad users gets maximum satisfaction. As reported on MacRumors and community support in Apple's official website, some users complained about the presence of the heat issues on new iPad tablet.

They said that on the left bottom of the new iPad feels slightly warm when used in a long time. It is hotter than previous iPads, and can even be uncomfortable to use. Some have even claimed that it goes into ‘cool down mode’ and freezes until it has reached a stable temperature.

In this condition, some users feel uncomfortable. But there was also the feeling it doesn't matter, considering just warm and can be tolerated.

This could a serious problem of the new iPad in hotter countries or when you are on the beach or somewhere warm.

According to information from iFixit, who had always unpack Apple products, including the new iPad reveals that all of the iPad (iPad, iPad 2 and New iPad ) has a condition that is not far different.

We can tell that reason is that new iPad have unique higher specs given, like the larger capacity of the battery,  stronger CPU and GPU, which of course will produce greater heat. And, you know that like other iOS mobile devices, the new iPad does not have cooling fan. On such excess heat conditions, the new iPad is going to auto shut down and display a message notification that the new iPad needs to be cooling down for a moment.



In order to answer the problems and complaints of consumers, Apple needs to be immediately issued an official statement, as well as the solution to no detriment to consumers even further.

Today smartphone is just like a handful personal computer in our palm. You can do almost everything like personal computer does. You can watch movie, listening to music, taking photos, recording video, browsing, gaming on smartphone. Someday with smartphone can do anything the same as personal computer does.

Those smartphone capabilities really need tough long life battery.  As you can see that battery life has always been the one major concern to our favorite little Android smartphone companions. Every effort we do to make battery life longger like actively monitoring the energy use settings, killing each and every app that doesn't need to be running, etc. But it seems almost impossible to get more couple hours of battery life

A researcher at Purdue University may have found the main factor behind the smartphone energy goes and if he is right, then our penny pinching app purchases might just be killing our battery life.

Abhinav Pathak, a Purdue-based computer science researcher, claims 75% of the energy used by free apps is spent in downloading ads or uploading user data for advertising purposes while only 10%-30% was used for powering the apps core functionality. With today's power-hungry 3 and 4G devices, one app could drain your battery in a measly 90 minutes!

According to Mr. Pathak's research, the most playing apps, Angry Birds, only uses 20% of it's power consumption to run the display and a whopping 45% to locate a user and download those annoying pop-ups which always seem to drain the battery. Behind the apps process, the 3/4G connection stays active for another 10 seconds and accounts for 28% of all lost energy while playing Angry Birds.

Mr. Pathak suggests that inefficiencies in 3rd party code is to blame for the poor power consumption ratings of many free apps.

The solution, it would seem, would simply be to start paying for our apps and this might just be the impetus Android fans need to start rewarding developers for their hard work. For anyone interested in reading the full paper, follow the link: Fine Frained Energy Accounting on Smartphones

So if he is right the majority of Android user have to buy apps for saving their Android smartphone battery  to minimize the apps downloading and uploading while running the apps. That would be mean  a paid Android application surely will make your Android battery life running longer than before.

Nokia is getting smarter producing it's brand new smartphones to catch up the competition. Making it's unique differences between competitor. According to Nokia's CEO, Stephen Elop Nokia is advancing to improve its Windows product line. To accomplish with it, Nokia turned out to make a Windows Mobile phone for Nokia's future Phone. 

Then it came out Nokia Lumia 1000 on Concept-phones site. From the information presented it says that the device will run the Windows 8 OS and will be equipped with PureView camera 41 MP as currently embedded in Nokia 808 Pure View.

Some other specs that were revealed including

• Intel ATOM processor 1.8 GHz Z2580 dual core, 
• PowerVR SGX 544MP2 GPU533 MHz, 
• 4.3 inch AMOLED screen resolution 1024 x 768 pixels. 
• MicroSD card slot, 
• Internal memory capacity of 64 GB, 
• 2 GB of RAM, 
• Front VGA camera with video recording capability with a speed of 30 fps.

Nokia Lumia 1000 was a concept phone that will also offer NFC, USB 3.0 on the go, proximity sensor, accelerometer, compass, stereo FM radio, infrared, Bluetooth, WiFI, GPS and a QWERTY keyboard equipped with a joystick TV.

Seeing those specs make us think, Nokia is adding all the features to Lumia 1000, how much you think the device will cost?

Sony Xperia Pepper has finally been officially released by Sony Japan but  unlike the rumors that often heard, Sony Japan give the name of smartphone as Sony Xperia sola.

Sony Xperia sola will come with a screen of 3.7-inch Reality display, a dual-core processor and a NovaThor chipset.

The Sony Xperia sola is designed with the body thickness only 9.9 mm and  the BRAVIA technology with anti scratch glass screen has included in  3.7 Inches FWVGA. (480x854). While for the processor Sony Xperia Sola is using  NovaThor dual-core 1 GHz speed U8500.

Other important facilities that included in the smartphone are camera 5 MP with 720 video recording capability, stereo speakers xLOUD, and the connectivity features NFC with two Smart Tag in it.

The One thing interesting was this new smartphone from Sony is a feature that is a  floating touch. User simply ' put ' finger on top of the screen without touch it when you use the browser, while this finger will act like a cursor which enable it to ' float ' through links.This will be

giving consumers a new way to browse the web and technology

Sonymobile says it was that the Sony Xperia sola will be launched globally in Q2 2012 with Android 2.3 Gingerbread as the Operating System. Unfortunately at this time by now the price has not been revealed. The Sony Xperia Sola comes with several color choices like black, white, and red. While the Update to the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich will also be rolled out later soon.

As Samsung ICS update rumors will be rolled out last 10 March 2012, which turned out to be not true, finally the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has officially been revealed through the official Facebook page of Samsung. In Samsung Facebook page, the original vendor said that  Korean mobile device company, Samsung,  offers their Galaxy S II user to upgrade to Android 4.0 aka Ice Cream Sandwich.

South Korea's SK Telecom is planning to distribute the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update to Galaxy S II owners starting at 10AM local time tomorrow, March 13th. In the next phrase, Samsung also says that they were happy to announce the update to Ice Cream Sandwich OS to European countries, such as Poland, Hungary, and Sweden. The European ROM is now available to download from xda-developers and MoDaCo.

Gradually these updates will be deployed to other regions. While for the Asian region, Android 4.0 update for Galaxy S II starts in Korea itself. Samsung made Android 4.0 available to Galaxy S II users in South Korea via Kies

All indications point to the ICS upgrade for the Galaxy S II becoming available very shortly indeed, so we'd advise you to keep a close eye on the Samsung Mobile Twitter account to know exactly when the new software will drop.

Samsung also is planning to offer upgrade older devices to Android 2.3 Gingerbread, including the , Galaxy S, Galaxy W, Galaxy Note, and some regional variants like the Galaxy M Style and Galaxy S Hoppin. While the update to Android 4 ICS for Galaxy S II LTE, Galaxy Tab Galaxy Tab 7.0, 8.9, 10.1 will released soon.

Amazing! The new iPad first pre order stock in not yet even a week from the time of its official announcement, was all sold out. Apple confirmed that the new iPad is prepared for initial order (pre-order) has been sold out. Although the sales nominal has not been released, Apple said that people response to the new iPad has been beyond their estimation charts.

Based on Apple's previous statement mentioned that customers who order the iPad will be get it on the day of the official launch and every customer can order up to two units of the iPad.

But now, the customers who purchase the new iPad pre-order line means will get the device for longer time than those who were waiting in line to buy it in the store. People pre-ordering Apple's new iPad online to avoid the release-day crowds at stores will have to wait longer to get their hands on the devices.

Apple says that due to high demand, it has been forced to put back delivery times for online buyers.
Those ordering online will now be restricted to a maximum of two devices, and will have to wait until Monday 19 March 2012, rather than getting deliveries on the launch date of Friday 16 March because demand for the new version of the tablet is "off the charts", according to an Apple spokesperson. Nice starts for Apple for their achievement so far with new iPad.

The Androidpit has published the comparing video side by side of iPad 2 and Galaxy Tab 10.1 which clearly wanted to let YOU be the judge to make a smart decision before buy one of those tablets. The guy on the video talk about comparing two tablets running 5 same applications with different Operating System, so people able to honestly think that applications look better on  and decide which tablet that runs smoother, faster performance.

We can see that iPad 2 with IOS 5 runs the apps with better look, smoother, and faster loading than Galaxy Tab 10.1. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 with Android Honeycomb run the apps with unpleasant lags and longer loading than iPad 2, especially when opening the you tube and GPS maps. Clearly the Apple iPad 2 is the winner.

The fact that updated news on Samsung's official web site really seems to be happen. According to the latest information from Samsung's web, the Samsung Galaxy S Smartphone which has scooped up a great successful global sales, will soon receive ICS operating system update. Yes, on 10 March 2012, later operating systems on Galaxy S II can be updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream sandwiches.

But today we saw the opposites news on Androidpit, first the Samsung's official website has posted the news that Galaxy S2 update ICS will be rolled out this 10 March, but then Androidpit says that Samsung twitter account has just denied everything they had posted on their official website.

Samsung reported that the news of Galaxy S2 update to ICS this March 10th date was accidentally published on its Filipino website. They says that the ICS upgrade date for Galaxy S2 has not yet been decided on. So we have to wait to see the real next news on Samsung Twitter for real news. Be patience guys!

Apple has officially introduced their new tablet, iPad, to the public. Somehow there are things that mention NVIDIA's Tegra 3 performance, where Apple's A5X SoC (System on Chip) displays graphics performance on new iPad is claimed 4 x faster than the Nvidia  quad core chip, Tegra 3.

Responding to that Apple's claims for new iPad, NVIDIA representative Ken Brown explained via ZDNet that they do not have the benchmark criteria that Apple use for their claim. Therefore, NVIDIA could not verify the authenticity of the claim, which the benchmark could be not fair enough through benchmark application.

We can tell there is some of the evidence supporting the Apple's claim. The benchmark results from ASUS Transformers Prime – with Tegra 3 chipset and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, which was recorded not faster than the Apple iPad 2, a device that's almost a years older with dual-core processor and dual-core Gpu.

 

In order to provide more fairly benchmark, Nvidia intend to test the new iPad with the ULP Geforce GPU on Tegra 3. Just for information, the next likely Apple will be facing a serious threat from Samsung Exynos 5250, which will use the new architecture ARM Cortex-A15 and new graphics.

The next Apple tablet that Apple fans has been awaited finally released. Recently, in an event held in San Francisco, yesterday, on March 7, 2012  Apple has announced some important things, one of which is it's latest tablet.

Far from the rumors lately that developed before that the new iPad tablet will be called iPad 3 or iPad HD.  Apple is precisely give the the new tablet device name with the quite simple name, iPad, no 3 or HD following iPad name, just as simple as its first version.

Despite having a name that is quite simple, it does not mean that Apple is not that advanced. This third generation iPad comes with Retina Display packaged screen resolution 2048 x 1536 pixels with a of 263.92 ppi density. Apple claims that the latest iPad will have better color saturation than the iPad 2.

Apple new iPad will be equipped with new processors. This new tablet was only has a dual-core chip A5X with quad-core graphics processing unit, same GPU as Sony PS Vita, instead of a quad-core A6 processor as rumored during this time.  

Apple says the new graphics abilities will be responsible for pushing pixels to that new 2048 x 1536 resolution Retina Display, and also handling duties like stabilization for the new iPad's 1080p camera.  

The next is the camera features called the iSight which came with resolution 5 MP BSI auto-focus and HD video 1080p recording. 

Apple new iPad comes with the new connectivity features offered like high speed 21Mbps HSPA + and 42Mbps DC-HSDPA, and 4G  LTE with speed up to 73Mbps. On the power source side, batteries on the iPad is claimed to be able to supplies power up to 10 hours, while for mode 4G,  the battery can support up to 9 hours of device.

Like its predecessor, the iPad also comes with several versions according to the memory capacity it offers. For the 16 GB version, the new iPad will dibanderol USD, while around 499 32 GB and 64 GB, each dibanderol 599 and 699 USD. This will start at the beautiful Tablet marketed on March 16, 2012

The new Android 4.0 tablet speculation soon will be presented with the Google trademark again just like Nexus smartphone.  According to the latest rumor as reported by the blog Android and Me, it is said that the biggest internet company, Google, has partnered with Taiwan's computer giant, Asus, to make a high tech new 7 inches tablet

This device is expected to be cheap as 199 USD and will be powered with the Tegra 3 processor which brings quad-core power, and the main interest feature is  Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as the system operations.

According to a source blog, it seems that Google is very impressed with a tablet that Asus announced earlier, the Asus Memo, which affordable prices is in the range of 249 USD.

Still according to the source, Google is rumored to have reached out his hands to the Asus and the hope is that the Taiwan computer giant vendor able to reduce the material cost so that it could achieve a very affordable price point, which is 199 USD.

Till now Google does not give the name of the product yet. It is indeed not known with certainty. Would it be called the "Google Play" such a speculation is growing at the moment. We just wait.

As we know that Google was officially announced Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) on October 18th 2011 for developers to start building apps for the new platform. And the next month later Google made it available as an open source download and people was introduced by the launch of the first mobile device with the new OS version installed, the Galaxy Nexus. The next is the Nexus S as the previouse Google phone which is the only other smartphone to be receiving an official update to ICS.

It seems that what the Verge was write is true that "Google is having its Ice Cream Sandwich and eating it too, but users are left hungry".

When HTC  response to Google to questions about upgrades for its older smartphones,  Google said that they  were "reviewing the features and functionality" of the new operating system and evaluating the viability of updates. Was this the sign that HTC really kept out of the loop until the code was publicly detailed and released under an open source license? It's possible.

There are rumors of Google choosing favorites among Android manufacturers by providing early access to its next OS for some but not others have been heard, but we shouldn't place all the blame for these delays on Google's side.



Google doesn't make a habit of enforcing exclusives, of course, but its own active involvement in the Android upgrade process seems to mirror Apple's behavior with the iPhone: get the hero device out with the new OS, update the previous hardware generation, and focus on delivering a cohesive user experience that's recognizably yours. Android phone owners are left at the mercy of quixotic phone makers and myopic carriers.

The one party that isn't gaining anything in this unholy muddle is the user. The term "Android" still encompasses the full range of devices running the operating system, from the Acer Liquid Express to the ZTE Blade II, and yet we're sat watching as a two-stage software update roadmap develops. One is for Google's own, the Motorola Xooms and the Galaxy Nexuses and the other is for everyone else, leaving Android phone owners at the mercy of quixotic phone makers and myopic carriers. Needless to say, that's not the way it should be.

If Google is in charge of the Android project, it should accept responsibility for all of it, because that's how the rest of the world perceives it. And if it's not, it should come clean by clearly defining which devices will and won't benefit from its "express new OS" service. The Android users really want to know what's going on the Android 4.0 rumors.

Apple Inc. in this near future will soon announce it's  most eagerly awaited  latest tablet. Although they are not yet officially announced, some level of rumour of slick features which would be present in that device.

The most Apple iPad 3 features which known would be present are the Retina Display screen  9.7 inches with pretty  high resolution 2.048 x 1.536 pixels, A6 quad-core processor , 4 G LTE connectivity features in addition to the 3 G and Wi-Fi. IPad 3 Casing also is rumored to have been redesigned, now claims approximately 1 mm thicker and heavier than the iPad 2.

With a variety of rumors which tell different vantage points, the next Apple tablet  is deservedly the most-desired by most fans.

Well, interestingly the released video about iPad 3 Concept Features from AatmaStudio  have been uploaded to video sharing website Youtube. In the video it shows some interesting ideas intended for the iPad 3 in the future. As the main feature a screen Retina Display which edge-to-edge border is very thin with 3D capability.

The internal magnetic of NFC capability for wider and bigger view when joining iPad 3 together  simultaneously, integrated projector, hologram screens, and much more.

As additional information before these, the same company i.e. Aatma Studio also have uploaded a stunning feature concept video for iPhone 5, and the video has even been viewed over 46 million times. Wow this is truly advanced technology from Apple and this is better than it's competitor.

Who wants a smartphone with extra-large screen size? well, I don't.  It does seem  like tablet to me and your hand will get tired fast when holding a big screen size smartphone for too long. But extra larga screen smartphone has been the world mobile device trend lately. Many vendors have been presenting smartphones with extra large screen lately, but not with Nokia and Apple

The phenomenon of smartphone with extra-large screen lately is stupid idea says  Niklas Savander of Nokia.  Via Pocketlint, Savander said that the  time will come when mobile device users realize that having a mobile phone with an extra large screen it is a stupid thing.

Savander did not mention when that time happens. It is clear himself argued that the advances in technology can be achieved, not just simply make the screen larger. "It's hard to say when it will happen, but progress should be related dengap new technology what can we create, not just about making a bigger screen." says Savander.

So far by now Nokia and Apple do not follow the extra large screen size smartphone trends that occurred in the United States. Just take a look at Nokia Lumia 900 which comes with a relatively smaller screen (4.3 inches), and iphone 4S with 3.5 inches rather than some it's competitors  that comes with an extra screen up ranging from 4.6, 4.75, even 5.3 inches.
