It is a versatile operating system being the No.1 in World it is widely used in smart devices by many companies like Samsung,LG,HTC and many others.

Apple launched there first Iphone in 2007. It was the first smartphone which offer downloadable apps. This was very innovative device and became popular in very less time.

Apple has the biggest app store in World containing more than 75 hundred thousand apps. iOS widely attracts people. It has very unique design and easy to use compare to Android, even your granny can pickup and start using iPhone. The new iOS 7 is very compatible and provide many new features to its users.

One great advantage of iOS is that it is highly synchronized with iTunes, software by which all apps and music of iPhone can be managed. Itunes is available for Windows and Mac and is totally free.

Microsoft does not get popularity in mobile operating system but new Window smartphone are making an entry. Window have excellent User Interface. Big tiles in window allow users to get quick access to apps,contacts and settings. New version Window 8 is very cool and got very famous in last few months.

Window is has not got a huge app store and have very few apps, So people does not have more choices to made in terms of apps.

Nokia announces new Android based Phones...WHY?

Recently Nokia announces new Android based phones. 3 models X,XL,X+ were unveiled by C.E.O of Nokia in Barcelona.

All of them are using AOSP Android Open Source project. So they are running on Android Operating Systems and can run Android app
s, but without Google services which means no apps can be downloaded form Google App Store but users can download apps from Nokia App store or third party like Yandex store or Slideme. Because they are not like common Android devices and are not fulfilling Google conditions. Their operating systems are much like Windows. So they did not get access to Google services.

As Nokia's Windows phones did not go successful so they are going with android. These phones have android based systems but have more look of windows. They come with preloaded features of Microsoft. One month free Skype calling, Outlook.com email, and access to 10gb Google drive. They made a clever move because after launching these devices people will get familiar with Windows phone, So window will get famous.

These phones are cheaper as compare to their specifications. Nokia XL is available for $150 having 5mp  and 2mp secondary camera, 1gb Ram and 4gb internal memory with dual core CPU. Samsung,Sony etc. phones of these specifications are expensive. So these phones are going are expected to make entry in developing countries.
