Android vs iPhone – Important points that you really don’t want to overlook

Technology

Well I have come across many users who sometimes seems confuse between lot hyped brand iPhone and feature packed Android. So today I have decided to make 10 points which one should seriously consider before buying an iPhone - #1 Expandable storage We store a lot of stuff on our phones. Sometimes the built-in storage isn't enough. That's why we love how many Android phones let you pop in a Micro SD card for extra storage. Plus it's a lot cheaper than spending another Rs. 6000 or so on a model with more storage. #2 Built-in navigation Even after all these years, the iPhone is still missing a built-in turn-by-turn navigation app. Google Maps is just OK if you need directions on the iPhone, but it doesn't give you the audio and visual cues that Android's app does. #3...

Manage Your Android Phone From PC Using AirDroid

Technology

When it comes to control your android device from your PC, Airdroid android application comes to help you. I just experienced this awesome free application and what more to say, its cool application. The main advantage of Airdroid is that it uses WiFi connectivity of your android phone to completely take control of your device from PC. You can read messages, hear music that stored on phone on computer, view contacts, check call details, check phone status, transfer files from memory card to pc at higher speeds, moreover it’s your phone inside the pc.

Now, when Aakash tablet has finally been made available for sale online and UbiSlate is available for online pre-booking, most of the users are some how confused about the difference between Aakash Tablet PC and UbiSlate tablet.

However, Aakash tablet was subsidised as it was targeted to be a students model of the tablet. However, subsequently, company DataWind and Indian Govt. started taking different Aakash tablet models which the...

Ice Cream Sandwich continues Google's tradition of alphabetical dessert naming. Froyo begat Gingerbread, Gingerbread begat Honeycomb, and together, Gingerbread and Honeycomb begat Ice Cream Sandwich. If you bought a high-end phone recently you will almost certainly be upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich, and upcoming high-end devices will have it preloaded. It’s different... For anyone who has used an Android phone, this is a pretty different look. It still has that famously customizable desktop, but it doesn't move in the same way.
