iPhone vs Android vs Windows: War of Smartphones

I’m writing this post because of the influence of Smartphones in my personal life. Sorry Blackberry lovers…. I’m excluding BB since I didn’t pocked one in my collections yet!  

iphone vs Android vs Windows


The evolution of smartphones is so rapid and advanced in a short span of time. Thanks to Internet and latest technologies. Without these two, smartphones are just a piece of material made up of glass, plastics and weird chips.



Let me give an example of the height of influence and usage of Smartphone.
When I asked my friend to check the nearest place to hangout peacefully, he used an app “City Lens” (in Windows platform) and come up with several options! Brainy right J

Apple:


Steve job’s visionary Apple products such as iPhone, iPod  and iPad are finest devices the world have ever seen or used. We can also say “Technology at its best”. Since the induction of iPhone from 2007, there is no looking back for Apple. If you look at any feature, it simply looks great. The elegant design and style, the best known hardware spares, rich and quality app’s (Apple Store) and smooth interface are the primary, pre-defined qualities of any Apple device.

Verdict: If you want to taste/feel the height of technology without any concern on price, then Apple is the finest choice.

Android:

Highlight: Open source, brought by “Google”

Android OS is based on Linux kernel. From late 2008, Android installed devices started to roll out and tasted immediate success in the market. The greatest advantages are its user friendly interface experience and lakhs of free apps available in the store (Google Play). Also, Android is the world's most widely used smartphone platform. Android has seen numerous updates which adds more features and fixes bugs from previous versions. Each major release is named in alphabetical order after a dessert or sugary treat.

Verdict: If you are looking for user friendly smartphone with good specs call outs and in affordable price, then Android is the best choice.


Windows:

Highlight: Stylish, refreshing, combo of techie giant “Microsoft” and Nokia

Windows phones are gaining popularity worldwide after the release of Windows 8 and the market share increased by 3% in last quarter of 2012. Nokia dominates the windows phone market followed by a very small share from HTC and Samsung. The only disadvantage is, it have relatively less number of apps compared to Apple and Android. Now Nokia acquired by Microsoft for a whooping price, it’s going to be a healthy rival among smartphone manufacturers.


Verdict: If you are obsessed with over populated Apple and Android devices, then go for Windows. Feel great experience in lesser price.
