Farrukh There have been many rumors recently about iPhone 5‘s screen size, new design, it’s aluminium back etc. But this time, it’s the camera which is the talk of the town now. It’s almost confirmed now that the camera on the new iPhone is an 8MP one (most probably Exmor R backlit) manufactured by none other than Sony.
April 15th, 2011 Farrukh There was a time when Symbian was considered the best mobile OS as far as usage, flexibility, applications and even eye-candy was concerned. But with the arrival of iOS, Android and now Windows Phone 7, the competition has gotten much fierce and no matter how much Nokia has tried to refine Symbian for touchscreen devices, it’s still hasn’t got up to the mark set by the new operating systems.
April 12th, 2011 Farrukh April 9th, 2011 Farrukh This comes to us with no surprise that Microsoft‘s Kinect sensor has sold 10 million units worldwide, which is mighty impressive by the way. Not only that, 10 million Kinect games have also been sold. And before you think of the bundle option, let it be clear that these are standalone game figures!
A little explanation of the first statement now. Recall that in just 25 days after launch, Kinect sold 2.5 million units. And in just 3 months, the sales went to 8 million units which was fast enough to earn Kinect the title of “fastest-selling consumer device.” According to Guinness World Records, Microsoft sold an average of 133,333 units per day between November 4 and January 3.
According to Gaz Deaves, gaming editor for Guinness World Records, “The sales figures here speak for themselves. According to independent research, no other consumer electronics device sold faster within a 60-day time span, which is an incredible achievement considering the strength of the sector.”
Well, Microsoft certainly deserves a huge round of applause for this outstanding achievement. Kinect has beaten its rivals, the Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3 Move, by a huge margin. So let’s now see what the future holds for them ahead.

April 6th, 2011 Farrukh The 3D fever is all around the place nowadays and HTC isn’t ready to stay back either. They have unveiled a new 3D flagship device – HTC EVO 3D, which carries a huge 3D S-LCD screen and is capable of shooting both 3D pictures and videos. The second device is the HTC EVO View 4G tablet, a Flyer variant with CDMA and WiMAX.
Let’s get on with both of these one by one, shall we?

March 31st, 2011 Farrukh A number of devices have been revealed in the roadmap of 3 UK. Most prominent of them are Samsung Galaxy S II mini and Nokia X7 confirming that it hasn’t been cancelled world-wide. The S II mini, unlike the Galaxy mini, will be a high-end smartphone, targeting those that find the Galaxy S II and its 4.3″ screen a bit too large.
March 29th, 2011 Farrukh The statistics of the distribution of Android versions in the mobile market have been updated by Google. According to the new stats, out of all the Android-based devices, over 90% of them are running at least Android 2.1 Eclair. However, Android 2.2 Froyo is leading on the front with the figures of 61.3% to its credit.
March 25th, 2011 Farrukh iPhone is and has been, undoubtedly, one of the most talked about and successful mobile phones in the history. Although it has been greatly criticized over the years about the lack of basic functionalities which other devices have provided for a long time now, but the user-friendly, smooth and gorgeous UI and the largest collection of high quality apps in the App store has surely revolutionized the way we interact with mobiles nowadays!
Let me make it clear that I am not an apple fan boy but in my opinion, it would be unfair if Apple is not given credit for this achievement. Microsoft has been working extensively on creating a brand new and fresh experience with the release of Win Phone 7 now. This is a hit-or-miss chance for them to either make a successful comeback in the mobile phone industry, or they’ll be out forever.
In this article, I’ll compare different areas and the overall experience of iPhone and Win Phone 7. Let’s begin:
