  Top 10 Smart phones of 2011   

  Top 10 Smart phones of 2011

   

  Number 1: Samsung Galaxy S II

  The Samsung Galaxy S line of smartphones had variants on all four major US wireless carriers, and on several regional carriers, and is an extremely successful line. The Samsung Galaxy S II takes the best of the Galaxy S line and improves it with an amazing 4.3 inch Super AMOLED Plus display, dual-core 1 GHz processor, 8.49mm form factor, 21 Mbps HSPA+ support, Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) OS, 8 megapixel camera, integrated memory and microSD card, 802.11 a/b/g/n WiFi, Bluetooth 3.0, and more.

  The amazing Samsung display itself might be a reason to buy this device and if it comes to T-Mobile. You won’t have to worry about an OS upgrade since the Galaxy S II launches with Gingerbread already loaded too.

  Number 2: Motorola Droid Bionic on Verizon

  Verizon’s LTE network is the only network in the US that can seriously be considered a 4G network and the upcoming Droid Bionic may just be the best smartphone on the nation’s fastest network. The Droid Bionic sports a high resolution (540×960 pixels) 4.3 inch display, dual-core 1GHz processor, 8 megapixel camera, large capacity 1930 mAh battery, integrated 16GB of memory and microSD card slot, and support for the LTE network.

  The device is scheduled to launch this quarter for an undisclosed price. It will likely launch with Android 2.2, but hopefully gets an update to 2.3 (Gingerbread) soon after release.

  Number 3: T-Mobile LG G2X

  LG really hasn’t focused on the high end Android smartphone market, but this year they will be offering several compelling candidates. One of the first ones that we should see will launch on T-Mobile as the LG G2x. This is the US model of the LG Optimus 2X and is a dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 processor smartphone running Android 2.2 with support for T-Mobile’s fast HSPA+ network. It will include an 8 megapixel camera, 4 inch display, enhanced audio technologies, front facing 1.3 megapixel camera, and 1080p recording capability.

  T-Mobile has a high powered lineup of Android devices and the G2X looks to be at the top of the heap.

  Number 4: Apple iPhone 4

  The iPhone 4 is now available on both AT&T and Verizon. The iPhone 4 is one of the only smartphones available that you can trust will get you through the day on a single charge and this may be vitally important to some people while others are fine with carrying a second battery to pop in their Android device. Apple does a great job with industrial design and the iPhone 4 feels great in your hand. The display has amazing clarity with the 3.5 inch 960×640 pixel resolution. If apps are important to you then the iPhone 4 also rules in that department.

  The iPhone 4 is a 3G device with no capability for the faster AT&T or Verizon networks. The display is a bit small for my tastes at 3.5 inches while I do love the look and feel of it. I want Apple to update iOS since it is getting a bit long in the tooth and needs better notification and home screen widget support.

  You can buy the iPhone 4 for $199 (16GB) or $299 (32GB) from AT&T or Verizon with a two-year contract.

  Number 5: HTC EVO 3D

  The upcoming HTC EVO 3D takes the familiar EVO 4G form factor and improves several aspects with things such as a 4.3 inch 540×960 3D touch screen display, 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, a 1730 mAh battery, Bluetooth 3.0, dual 5 megapixel cameras for 3D photo and video capture, and a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera.

  It will launch with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) and HTC Sense. It will support Sprint’s WiMAX data network too.

  Number 6: HTC ThunderBolt

  Again, this is a device that is similar to the HTC EVO 4G that I loved with some key improvements. It has a second generation Snapdragon single core processor, more included RAM and integrated flash memory and Bluetooth 3.0 support (via a coming update).

  The MAJOR reason I purchased the ThunderBolt was the blazing LTE wireless data network support where I am seeing regular downloads from 13 to 20 Mbps and that is easily at least double any other carrier data network in the U.S. If speed is your need, the the ThunderBolt is the only current answer.

  One reason it is up higher on the list than other devices with high specifications is the LTE network and the fact that you can go buy one of these now. The ThunderBolt is priced at

  Number 7: Sony Ericsson Xperia Play

  If gaming is your thing, then the SE Xperia Play may just be the smartphone you are looking for. It is fully optimized for gaming with a display that slides up to reveal full gaming controls. Sony Ericsson makes some high quality products and it will be very interesting to see what they do with the Play and PlayStation Android functionality.

  The Xperia Play will launch as the first PlayStation certified Android smartphone with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), 854×480 pixel display, 5 megapixel camera and VGA front facing camera, 3G wireless radio, stereo speakers, and more. I would like to try one out, but I am not a heavy gamer so having controls dedicated to gaming is not for me.

  We do not yet have full pricing or availability information.

  Number 8: Google Nexus S and 4G

  Samsung was the maker of the second official Google development phone, known as the Nexus S. Google and Sprint recently announced the Nexus S 4G that has the same specs as the Nexus S with support for Sprint’s WiMAX data network. The Nexus S/4G is a pure Google phone and is generally the first to receive any OS updates.

  The internals of the Nexus S are what you could find in the Galaxy S line from last year with the addition of NFC. It is a solid smartphone, but the lack of 4G, lack of expandable storage memory, and last year’s processor only make it a device to consider if you want a device that is easily upgradeable.

  You can buy the Nexus S for $529.99 from Best Buy and if it had T-Mobile HSPA+ support I would seriously consider one. The Nexus S 4G is not yet available.

  Number 9: HP Pre 3

  HP purchased Palm last year and at a February event HP announced the HP Pre3 coming sometime this summer. While I think webOS is one of the slickest and most fun mobile operating systems to use, after two years they still have one of the lowest market share numbers of any smartphone maker and not having their new phones available for several months after announcing them does not instill much confidence in fans.

  The Pre3 isn’t a revolutionary device compared to the Pre Plus or Pre2 with the major differences being a larger 3.58 inch display, faster 1.4 GHz dual-core processor, and 5 megapixel camera. It has the same slide up display revealing a portrait QWERTY keyboard and the skipping stone look and feel.

  There looks to be some cool integration with their upcoming webOS tablets, which may end up being a major bonus for those looking for a 2 device solution. Unfortunately, we have no pricing or availability information.

  Number 10: Dell Venue Pro

  The Dell Venue Pro hardware is fantastic and the device has been rock solid.

  The OS is fun to use and a breath of fresh air in the mobile space.

  You can buy the Dell Venue Pro for $449.99 (8GB) or $499.99 (16GB) as an unsubsidized device or just $99.99 or $149.99 with a 2-year T-Mobile contract. Here is a tip for you, you can buy it with a contract and cancel by paying just a $200 ETF to T-Mobile and still come out cheaper than an unsubsidized device.

  VoIP Phones – Future Of Telephony 

  The concept of VoIP phones has climbed up the popularity ladder because of its effectiveness. VoIP is the abbreviated form of Voice Over Internet Protocol. The VoIP phones are just like your traditional phones that are used for making long distance calls. However the difference lies in the cost and the carrier which transfers the signal from one phone to another. VoIP telephony is wholly related to the Internet services. That means your call is made through the Internet. Secondly the cost of this call isn t much and it is cheaper as compared to the traditional PSTNs. Also, you can be assured of the voice quality that remains undeterred and it sounds as clear as your normal telephone. The VoIP service proves to be much affective especially for international calls as it cuts much on your telephone bills. And the benefits that are given by these VoIP phones are much better than your traditional phones. Let’s take a look as to how the VoIP phones are more convenient than the traditional phones. You can receive your incoming calls anywhere around the world, as they are directly routed to your VoIP phones. All you have to do is to keep yourself connected to the Internet. Also it facilitates Instant messenger users, to make calls to anywhere around the world, with the help of VoIP services. The concept of VoIP telephone services have become really helpful for the thriving of call centres as the agents can operate from anywhere around the world using the medium of VoIP telephony. Recently, Toshiba has launched two VoIP phones, namely Toshiba G500, and G900 which facilitate the concept of VoIP phones even more than before. Incidentally, there are quite a number of handsets that have inculcated the VoIP telephony in them, thereby making this concept known to a large number of people who weren’t earlier acquainted with it. Surely, these VoIP phones have made things easier for us, and are making waves amongst its users. Xpert4u offer Cashback Shopping of VOIP Phones.

  Roaming charges: save money phoning home
  Mobile phone costs abroad are falling, but users at home are paying the price.

  Using your mobile phone while on holiday will become cheaper now that an EC ruling has put a cap on the cost of making and receiving calls abroad. Internet charges on your phone may come down too, with proposals to limit the cost of data downloads expected this week.

  Figures from uSwitch.com suggest that a fifth of travellers are unaware of how much their mobile phone provider charges when they use their phone abroad. Here we look at how you can prevent a hefty mobile phone bill leaving you with a holiday hangover.

  What’s new?
  The European Commission has ruled that, within the EU, holidaymakers should pay no more than 32p a minute for making calls and 10p a minute for receiving them. The cost of sending a text on holiday will remain at no more than 10p per text, excluding VAT; customers are not charged to receive texts. The changes are part of the commission’s plan to narrow the gap between domestic and overseas call rates to virtually nil by 2015.

  However, there are fears that mobile phone providers are passing on the EU costs to UK consumers in the form of domestic price rises, with Orange and Vodafone introducing increases of up to 66 per cent in pay-as-you-go costs.

  What about using the internet abroad?
  An estimated half of holidaymakers will return home to a mobile phone bill of up to £150 because they were not aware of the cost of using the internet on their mobile phone or tablet while abroad.

  While EU legislation has ruled that these charges must be capped at around £45 per month, this does not apply to holidaymakers visiting other parts of the world. A rule change last year means that if the limit is reached, the operator must cut off the mobile internet connection – unless otherwise agreed in advance.

  The commission is expected to announce that from July next year, new price caps will be imposed on data downloads, so surfing the internet or receiving emails while abroad would cost no more than 81p per megabyte, falling to around 40p by 2014, compared with an average of around £1.80 today.

  How about pay-as-you-go customers?
  The new changes to costs will also apply to pay-as-you-go customers. However, some industry experts are concerned that these customers are footing the bill for the EU changes. Last week more than nine million Vodafone and Orange pay-as-you-go customers were warned that they will face rises in costs of up to 66 per cent for calls and texts.

  From July 1, Orange customers will be charged an extra 25 per cent on all calls to other mobiles, landlines and even for checking voicemail, while the cost of sending a text has increased by 20 per cent. From July 14, Vodafone customers on its pay-as-you-go tariffs, excluding the Simply tariff, will see their calls to mobiles, landlines and voicemail increase by 66 per cent. For customers on Vodafone’s Simply tariff, charges will increase by 19 per cent, with the cost of sending a text rising by 20 per cent.

  Ernest Doku, technology expert at uSwitch.com, said: “Pay-as-you-go customers are being hit with a double whammy of price increases – with both calls and texts going up, they will be counting the cost whenever they pick up their mobile.”

  He added: “A good solution for anyone nervous about getting tied in could be to keep your existing handset and take a 30-day SIM-only deal. These currently start from just £10 a month for 100 minutes and 500 texts. If you’re happy to sign up for longer, there are some great pay-monthly options out there and you could even end up landing yourself a free smartphone.”

  Many mobile phone providers have cheaper packages for calling when abroad. Some add-ons are free, while others require a monthly fee – so don’t forget to cancel upon your return.

  Switch to aeroplane mode

  According to uSwitch.com, seven in 10 consumers leave their phone switched on while on holiday. But the minute a mobile is switched on abroad, it will register onto a local network – and charge you accordingly.

  If you have a smartphone, switch your handset to aeroplane mode. This normally enables you to play games or listen to music in-flight, but it also means that no phone, radio, Wi-Fi or Bluetooth signals are emitted, thus preventing any surprise charges.

  Turn off your voicemail

  Many mobile phone customers are unaware that they may be charged if someone calls and leaves a message. Customers will be charged international rates to receive calls – even if just from a voicemail message.

  Switch to a local SIM

  By swapping your SIM card for a local one, typically costing between £10-£30, you can avoid roaming charges, including those made outside the EU where the costs are not capped. However, bear in mind that you will have a different phone number while you are away, and there will be an outlay for the foreign SIM card.

  Make sure that you safeguard your UK SIM card, as if it falls into the wrong hands you will have no protection in the event of fraudulent charges until it is reported as missing. One unlucky couple contacted The Telegraph when, upon returning from their Caribbean honeymoon, they discovered their SIM card had been stolen, and they were left with an £8,000 bill from Vodafone.

  Check your insurance

  If you have mobile phone insurance, double-check the policy wording as some providers may not cover you upon leaving the UK. However, a policy from Protectyourbubble.com will offer worldwide cover in the event of your handset getting lost or stolen.

  Make sure you do your sums as cheaper policies may offer just £200 for lost baggage – and with the cost of an iPhone being as much as £550, this cover will fall well short of the mark in the event of a claim.

  video-calling；Cheap International Calls 

  If you have an Android phone and you like to stare up your friends’ noses when you call them, then ring the party bell and do a little jig, because Skype now lets you do just that. A new update to the Skype app for Android allows video calls to other Android phones, computers and iPhones.

  Download the app from the Android market, or update your existing app, and video calls are on the cards — but only from a select number of phones.

  To start with the video-calling fun and games, you need to own an HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Xperia Pro or Google Nexus S. If you have the right phone, you can call other video-calling devices, such as a laptop, tablet or Cheap International Calls .

  To place a call, simply select ‘video call’ from a Skype contact. Sync your Skype contacts with your phone’s contacts, and you can place a Skype call by tapping on a friend’s face and choosing the Skype icon, or the Skype video icon for a video call. With no further ado, you can watch your girlfriend eating ice cream, as in the official video.

  When you’re on the call, you can see yourself in the bottom corner, and you can flip to your phone’s other camera to show your caller what’s around you.

  We decided to test the app in a historic peace-making mission — haaaands across the water, haaaands across the sea — that sort of thing. We resolved to settle an age-old enmity by video calling an iPhone from an Android phone. In the grand tradition of both technology and peace-making missions, it didn’t blinkin’ work — at first at least.

  Eventually, though, we conquered flaky Wi-Fi, elusive 3G reception, and the wrong kind of leaves on the line to achieve a historic rapprochement between Apple hipster and little green robot.

  As you can see, it was a special moment.

  Skype video calls work over both 3G and Wi-Fi, which gives the app a headstart over Apple’s FaceTime video-calling feature. FaceTime only works over Wi-Fi, and you can only call other Apple products, whether it’s another iPhone, MacBook or iPad 2.

  As well as video calling, there are all the usual features, including free calls over the Internet, cheap calls and texts to phones, and chatty instant messaging. The app syncs beautifully — we had the same chat window open on our computer and on the Android app, and both stayed updated.

  Skype is planning to get the app in full working order for more Android phones in due course, so keep an eye out for updates.

  Inexpensive ways to stay connected ；global SIM cards, global calling card 

  Take your pick from these options to stay in touch while globe-trotting.

  Suitcases neatly packed, travel documents, foreign currency, cheques and travel cards tucked carefully into your handbag – you are all set for that trip abroad. But, oh! What are you going to do in order to stay in touch with your family and friends back home ?

  Whether it’s a quick visit on work or a short vacation or a longer stay abroad, a few innocent phone calls to and fro could end up bringing huge bills. Here are some options to prevent the proverbial hole in you wallet.

  Roaming : Simple, but expensive

  The simplest thing to do would be to activate international roaming from your service provider. The biggest advantage of this is that you can be reached at the same number no matter where you are. The biggest disadvantage of this option is the exorbitant charges. For example, calling your wife while admiring the tulip gardens of Netherlands on Vodafone pre-paidwould cost Rs 150 per minute! And if she’s called you, you’ll still be charged Rs 75 per minute! An SMS would cost Rs 15. Post-paid charges fall in the same range too. Besides such high tariffs, activating international roaming involves paying a security deposit of anywhere between Rs 1,500-5,000 and monthly rentals of between Rs 99-450 across operators. But , if you are roaming on a pre-paid account, you get to cap the amount you want to spend. Even if you are a post-paid subscriber, your usage will vary according to your credit limit. A lower credit limit will help keep a check on the amount you spend with roaming activated.

  It would suit those who use their mobiles to make one or two quick calls on short trips abroad. By setting a readily available caller tune, you can dissuade the caller as he would know that you are on international roaming. Besides, incoming messages are generally not charged. So, if any information has to be passed on, you could perhaps tell your contacts to message you. Also, if you keep making these short trips frequently and wish not to permanently disconnect the service, operators like Reliance give you the opportunity to temporarily deactivate the service. By doing so, you can save on monthly rentals for the time period during which you don’t use this facility.

  Global SIM cards: Superior
  Companies such as Matrix offer country-specific SIM cards with post-paid connections with a pre-activated mobile number. These country-specific SIM cards also come at charges which are lower than roaming rates and offer free incoming calls in some routes. However, those who travel frequently on work could consider the world/global SIM cards. For example, a call from the US to India from the Airtel World SIM (pre-paid) would roughly cost only $0.87 i.e. about Rs 40 per minute. The same call from a mobile on international roaming would cost about Rs 150 per minute. Apart from similar lower rates, the Reliance global SIM (pre-paid and post-paid) also offers free incoming calls in over 30 countries. What’s more, the prepaid cards can conveniently be topped-up online and there are no rentals either.

  Like the Matrix cards, these special SIM cards require you to use a different number. However, these SIM cards would suit those who visit several countries on work because they can retain the same international contact number for any number of trips. The global SIM would also suit those who plan to visit different countries as part of their vacation.

  Calling cards: Sensible
  Those of you don’t cling on to their mobiles day in day out, should go for calling cards. Mobile networks across the world operate on different frequencies and sometimes, you will figure that your mobile phone may not actually be compatible. You will never face this problem if you use a calling card. These pre-paid calling cards can be used to call home from any landline, pay phones or local mobile phones from the country in which you are travelling. And, they are really cheap! A call using Tata Indicom’s global calling card from the UK to India, for instance, works out Rs 5 per minute. With no security deposit or processing fees, these cards are available for denominations as low as Rs 250. But using calling cards mean a cumbersome process of entering a long PIN number and equally long country access number every time before you dial the actual phone number. You need to remember or keep these numbers carefully. Also, if anyone from home wants to contact you in case of need, you may not be accessible.

  With Web sites to guide you, you can also opt for calling cards from the country you are visiting if they are cheaper than the ones available in India.
