Android 4.0 VS iOS 5 Let You Know Which You Want

iOS 5 and Android 4.0 are now the best two mobile operation systems in the world. Which is better? No one can tell. In this article, I will show you iOS 5 and Android 4.0's advantage and disadvantage together. After reading my article, maybe you will know which one do you want.

After the release of iOS 5 and Android 4.0, people always talk about which is better. It is really difficult to say that iOS 5 is better than Android 4.0 or Android 4.0 is better than iOS 5. Today I will compare the features, advantage, disadvantage, hardware and other features from the two most popular mobile operation systems. I believe that you will know more about them after read my article.

From iOS 4 to iOS 5, we can not find big surprise, instead we can see the perfect in details, such as drop-down menu and other new features borrow from Android. That maybe because iOS is already powerful and perfect. People can not find any big disadvantage on it.

In contrast, Android 4.0 has more improvement than the previous version. We not only see the redesigned interface and many upgrades in details, but also we notice the integration of Android mobile phone and Android Tablet in the brand new Android 4.0. Of course, you can understand this as the integration of Android and this is a good news for developers and hardware producers. However, in today's mobile phone area, all the customers care about the apps more than hardware, a well-developed platform can attract more app developers. This will brings more business to them.

As we talking about above, apps is now more important than hardware and game plays a big role in app. In iOS 5 and Android 4.0, which one provides a better game experience for users? I think iOS 5 is better than Android 4.0 now. The game experience in iOS is absolutely better than Android. This is not only because iOS has its own Game Center, but also because the hardware of the devices. For example, the new iPhone 4s has dual-core Graphics processor, while in Android phones, only Samsung Galaxy nexus is comparable. In Android 4.0, we only find the new 3D driver. Now I can not say how much it can improve the game experience.

In the new iOS 5 and iPhone 4s, Apple's iCloud becomes a highlights. In fact, it is developed from MobileMe service, which aims to keep the consistency of data from different platform. In addition to the new features, such as photos, bookmarks, presentation's sync, it also can sync your apps from iOS 5 to Cloud.

Although Android 4.0 does not provide this kind of service, users can also enjoy the convenient brought by cloud services. Now Android users can update and sync data with multi devices in 24 hours and Android also provides Gmail contact backup and other services.

Though there are many rumors about the NFC in the new generation of iPhone, Apple still choose Bluetooth 4.0 as the way of its data exchange in close distance. While in the Android 4.0, Google brings us Android Beam function. It can help users to share app, webpage, map and video with NFC tech. It is definitely the trends in future.

That is not only because google published its Google Wallet Service, but also many producers from different area add NFC tech to their products, especially Nokia, the biggest mobile phone producer, add NFC as a standard function to their mobile phones. We can see clearly that NFC is becoming the trends in future. So, even though iPhone 4s does not add NFC, Apple will use NFC in their next generation of iPhone for sure, just as the rumor. What is different is that Apple may show his creative and use it to give users a different experience.

I believe that many people may think that in future, except better hardware, what's the future of smart phone. So Apple released its voice assistant service, siri, which is a really creative thing that provides users a totally different experience, and become the focus of the smartphone field.

While, back to the topic, Apple releases siri is under a certain situation that hardware update can not attract users' attention any more. Just like iPhone 4's facetime, Apple always can find the advantage of the design to show their personality. However, after the first few month's fresh, I don't think people will speak to their smart phone on the street.

Voice assistant appear on Android system long before. But due to the limitation on content, voice assistant on Android is far behind iPhone 4s's Siri. Even though Android's voice assistant also has a nice performance. It can help you to make a call, send SMS, open GPS, play music and take a note and so on.

SNS is now play a big role in all the smart phone producers. In this section, both Android and iOS have their own killer. IOS 5 only built-in Twitter and iMessage function can be used after you turn on the iPhone 4s, do not need to register and it can match your friends automatically.

While in Android 4.0, Google releases new function People, it makes the contact as the focus and it integrates Twitter, LinkedIn, Google+ and communication tools and it will support custom third party service in future.

I have to say that multitask gestures is used more and more than before in the two operation systems. For example, in iOS 5 you can turn off an app by folding four fingers and without using the home button. So it is possible to cancel the home button in future.

In conclusion, Android 4.0 has more upgrades and update than iOS 5 and it has more powerful hardware. But the two mobile operation system have their own advantage and disadvantage and different user experience. Users will get their own point of view on them. Just as the saying that Android system tells you what you can do, but iOS do that for you. Here I can tell which one is better than the other one and the competition between Android and iOS will becomes more and more intense for sure. So when you choose smart phone yourself, choose the one you like.

Samsung Galaxy Note: The Experience of Both Smart Phone and Tablet PC

Announced by Samsung 25th Sept., Galaxy S II has been sold over 10 million. And 15th Oct. The sales of Samsung Galaxy S and Galaxy S II break through 30 million. Another good news for Samsung, in the third quarter, Samsung surpassed Apple and became the number one smart phone producer around the world.

In 2011, Samsung's development in the field of smart phone is really fast. Galaxy S II's success makes Samsung more confidence on the combination of Hyun-screen, ultra-thin and high-performence and the screen size goes up fastly. From the Galsxy S's 4 inches to Galaxy S II's 4.3 inches and the Samsung I919 reaches 4.52 inches and now the brand new Galaxy Note's screen is 5 inches that makes itself a cross between smart phone and tablet PC.

In fact, Samsung already released big screen smart phone Galaxy Tab, 7 inches screen makes users think it is a tablet PC. And from the way it named, it is true. After that Samsung published Tablet PC is also named after "Galaxy Tab". In daily use, people use Bluetooth headset to make a phone call instead of holding the phone in hand.

Samsung Galaxy Note uses a 5.3 inches WXGA 1280*800 screen and with a special Multi-stylus: S-Pen. The size of it makes it easy to take and also provides users the experience of tablet pc on a smart phone.

From the first feeling of Galaxy Note, it is just like a bigger Galaxy S II. Black ultra-thin body with rounded rectangle home button, even the location of the voice button and lock button are almost the same with it. While the supper big screen give you a shock when you open the screen. You may feel that it is not a smart phone. 1280*800 WXGA resolution, it means that diagonal pixel will reach 1510. In 5.3 inches screen, there is 285 pixel in one inch, it is also called ppi. Though it is not the most meticulous screen, it makes Galaxy Note superior to most smart phone on screen.

Samsung Galaxy Note's icon has smooth edge without sawtooth. The big resolution makes it can show more information on the screen. It can takes 25 app icon(5*5) and 5 Dock icon. 30 icons in one screen is the first seen on smart phone's screen. The superiority of big screen and resolution can be found much easier when you browse web and input words.

It is said that Galaxy Note is a bigger Galaxy S II. It is truth that some of the design of them are the same. The logo of Samsung on the top of the screen and the rounded rectangle home button are the same. And the return button and menu button are at left and right of the home button with white back-light. All in all, the Samsung Galaxy Note succeed the style of Galaxy family and the 5.3 inches 16:10 screen makes the bogy reaches 82.95mm, but the thickness of it is less than 1cm, 9.65mm. The big body makes it easy to input with two hands and brings better game and internet experience to users. But it is hard to hold it in one hand especially to female users.

The answer of if Galaxy Note can bring users a better experience of game and internet is that it takes a 1.4GHz Exynos Dual-core processor with two ARM Cortex A9 process build-in and Mali-400 Graphics chip. From the SMDKC210 CPU, we can say that Samsung Galaxy Note still uses S5PC210(Exynos4210) solution, which is the same as Galaxy S II.

It has no difference with other capacitance pen except a button on it. The button is like the button on a multi-mouse, which assists the capacitance pen finish different operation.

Brief Introduction of the Basic Operation of iTunes

iTunes was first introduced to users as a digital media player on 1/10/2001. After 10 years' development and Apple release so many popular products, iTunes perfectly matches with them and becomes one of the essential tools for all the Apple fans. Nowadays, iTunes is defined as a integrated software, which includes video/audio play, App store, data backup and devices management.

Download and Installation

Users can go to Apple's official website and enter iTunes page. In this page, you can see some basic functions of iTunes and you can also see the video tutorials of how to use iTunes. The first step is download iTunes. Apple's Mac OS brings the iTunes as a build-in essential tool. For Windows users you need to download and install it on your computer. It is free.

While you are installing iTunes, Safari and QuickTime are also installed on your computer. After insallation, you can see a shortcut on your desktop. Double click the shortcut you can run the iTunes easily and use it to help you enjoy your life better.

Today I will talk about some basic skill that may useful for iTunes users.

1. How to sync your iOS device's app with more than one computer?

The right of the useage of app is related to Apple ID account, one account can authorize upto 5 computers. Only the authorizen computers can sync apps with your iOS devices and the apps already on your iOS devices will not be deleted. If you have more than one account, every iOS device can authorize 5 different Apple ID accounts at one time. For example, if you have an iPhone, you can sync apps you buy from 5 different Apple ID accounts at the same time.

Run iTunes and you can find "Store" on the top of the iTunes interface, authorize the computer to your Apple ID account. After you have finished this, iTunes will show "including this one, you have authorized X computers out of your available 5". X represents how many computer you have already authorized and the max is five. If the computer is public or just for a short time, you need to cancel the authorizen before you leave.

Sometimes, you could just change computer all the time or you always use different computers and you have already authorized 5 computers and you must authorize a new computer right now. But you can not cancel other computer. Don't warry, you can use iTunes to cancel the 5 authorized computer with your Apple ID account.

After you have finish the authorizen, you can sync your iOS device with apps from different computer. (This time we only talk about app, but not music, video, and other media files.)

Step 1. First you need to connect your device to your computer and do not sync at once. If there is no iOS apps on this computer, the sync will be cancelled after you finish it. So it is necessary to have apps on your computer. The most fast way to do that is to transfer the apps from your iOS devices to your computer. Here you need to right click and choose sync purchased app.

Step 2. Then you need to go to "app" page and check the apps you want to sync. There will be a pop-up note from iTune, you need to choose "sync app". That's it. If you want to sync apps with different computers, remeber you need to transfer the purchased apps to the computer and then you can sync your apps.

2. Get a smart playlist to enjoy your iTune life better.

So what is a smart playlist? We call it smart playlist, well, it is smarter than the regular playlist. With criteria you can creat a playlist automatically, you just need to set what you want. You can assign the rules, such as artist, composer, the number of tracks, specific albums, file types and also bit rates. It can be auto updated to your iTunes. What's important is that if you do not like it, you can just delete it at all. This will not impact the actual music files and you can create another smart playlist.

3. Listen to your favorite radio through iTunes.

If you want to listen to radio, iTunes can help you to do that. Acctually, iTunes can not hear it over the air, but it can play back the internet streaming radio stations. You just need to click the radio option from the left control area and you will find you favorite radio listed here. If the list does not have your favorite radio station, you can copy the url of the station's streaming and paste it to the advanced menu and then slect open stream. Then you can listening your favorite radio via iTunes. Your stations will be listed on the main music page forever if you do not delete it.

Apple iTunes is a really nice tool for us to enjoy our Apple life, it helps us to manage our files on iOS devices and also it provides many useful functions for us. You will love it. I know there are some third party software providers also have some transfer software such as iPad converter, dvd to ipad converter and also ipad video converter and iPhone ringtone maker and also iPhone sms transfer to backup iPhone sms. They can help sometimes, but iTune is always my first choice to manage my iOS devices.
