So I decided to try to gather all the detractors iPhone in one place.
A properly thought out marketing approach in promoting the uniqueness of the gadget have made it very popular around the World. And let him that he has officially sold in just two countries: the U.S. and the UK ( for now) want to buy it and have already purchased including through a lot of gray imports.
I myself have ' held ' in his hands ( and unlock friend bought a sim- ku MTS), I liked it all: stylish design, large, easy-to- video and gps- map screen, accelerometers, which change the orientation of the image on the screen depending on the position of the tube . Dr.. The only thing a little too large size when compared with the. HTC TOUCH. , And everything is normal, and immediately want to go and order even 'gray ' and unlocked, if you really are not officially sold:-(.
In general, I would like to see that I'm a fan of products the company 'Apple'. They know how to make creative, beautiful and true gadgets:-). and as always there is a BUT! .
All the time there, some little thing that adds a spoonful of DECT in a barrel of honey.
In this case - a protracted marketing promotion strategy, which initially played a big plus, and. now can have a negative impact on sales. and, of course, bound to a single operator.
Features iPhone look. here. In the web I have seen offered for sale on the territory of the Russian tube min for 16 000 rubles. , And the average price of unlocked iPhone and Russified is 24 000 rubles. ( type in the search engine ' to buy iPhone' and choose the supplier).
In general I am still waiting for the beginning of official sales ' apple ' phones with geographical navigation in Russia and I hope that this will happen in 2008, and. all the problems that arise with Apple products in Russia. will be eliminated.
2. The newest potential competitor -. Nuvifone.
Garmin, producing navigation devices, introduced a mobile phone Nuvifone, which observers have already called iPhone rival. The smartphone has a touch screen with a diagonal of 3.5 inches, is able to go online, and also has an integrated GPS- module, which the iPhone has no.
The phone can take pictures, record videos, play files MP3, MPEG4 and AAC.
Nuvifone includes a local search Google, which allows, for example, find the nearest coffee shop, restaurants, gas stations, etc..
The device goes on sale in the third quarter of 2008. Nuvifone Price not available.
3. GooglePhone.
The most awaited my competitor.
The possible appearance on the market of mobile phone from Google is shrouded in rumor and great expectations.
Most likely, Google Phone will be cheap or even free of charge by showing ads. It will have its own OS. Implied support for multiple services (among which the development is not without the most Google: search, navigation, Google Maps, Docs, YuoTube and m. Dr.. ), As well as VoIP. It is likely that the phone giant's search will be done in cooperation with the Taiwanese company HTC.
4. It's a real competitor, which is sold now -. HTC TOUCH.
Small size, easy in hand. Navigation on the touch screen did not cause any negative (at least for a period of testing in the shop ) Operating System Windows Mobile ® 6 Professional, which is more familiar as t. to. I have a PDA in the presence of.
But the small screen than the iPhone, no accelerometer, which change the orientation of the image on the screen depending on the position of the tube and does not provide GPS navigation.
After testing, the store decided to buy in the next few months, t. to. tube is a very worthy, but after testing the illegal iPhone, I decided to wait.
The cost in retail - 16 500 rubles.
5. Samsung Ultra Smart F700.
Ultra Smart F700, similar in appearance, which can be traced to iPhone'om quite clearly. But there are differences and, more importantly, perhaps, is that it is a slider with full QWERTY keyboard, which extends from the side. And though his touch screen a little smaller (2.78 -inch vs. 3.5 ), but there is a 5-megapixel ( 2 megapixel and not, as in iPhone) camera and a microSD slot. In addition, this 3G phone ( there is an additional VGA camera ), capable of operating in GSM 850 and WCDMA 850/1900. Built-in media player will play the formats MPEG4, H. 263, H. 264, Real MP3, AAC, eAAC, Real. 6. LG Prada.
In my opinion, telefonchik glamorous, but the iPhone does not even compare the cost t. to. the latter has all the features you could wish for, and LG, only that must be present in a normal phone.
Company LG Electronics, in collaboration with world renowned brand PRADA, introduced yet another innovative device model, referring to a class of mobile phones - KE850. Telephone, which is controlled entirely through the touch screen, a 2- megapixel camera equipped with optics, Schneider-Kreuznach, provide a tribute to the quality of images. The phone can also act as a Media Player (support formats MP3, ACC, ACC, WMA, RA, MPEG4, H. 263, H. 264) and the viewer of documents in a format ppt, doc, xls, pdf, txt. Contact with the outside world will help the machine a number of built-in interfaces, including Bluetooth 2. 0, USB 2. 0, USB Mass storage. Storing large amounts of data can be arranged through the port for memory cards such as Micro SD. Despite this, KE850 is thin - the thickness is only 12 mm.
In store price of the device within 600 Euros.
7. There is. Nokia. N95 and N81.
This is a tube with a good application properties, but there is a fashionable touch screen and accelerometer, which change the orientation of the image on the screen depending on the position of the tube. Characteristics of the tube, read. here.
P. S. may have forgotten something, but for all non uglyadite, and a leader at the moment is not changed;-) - iPhone.
