Lets talk smartphones
I just read this article over at aas. IMO that is the truth. You can get any smartphone today and get the job done. They are all the same, both regarding functionality and usability.
All that is left now is consolitation. The new revolution will be PC and tablets. |
Re: Lets talk smartphones
I don't know. The whole article just feels wrong for me. It may be right for the typical non-smartphone-consumer... as long as it has Wifi and a touch display, this type of consumer will be happy.
But I know the things I normally check when I buy a new phone (N900/N9 were exceptions, I got them because of the desktop-like GNU/Linux stack). I never ever find a phone that offers all... I always have to buy the best compromise. Things I do expect these days - in addition to the usual stuff like browsing, camera, navigation and Angry Birds - and that are not as easy to find:
These are things that make a true smarttphone for me in 2012... and I don't find a model that offers all of them. I find some features here, some there,.... So from my point of view, the market is still in early development. |
Re: Lets talk smartphones
that's right.. for me a revolution is about how we interact with our device..... at first we're using a dial for our home telephone, then buttons with dtmf, then mobile phone with keypad... now touch screens!!! and guess whats next? but i really like the idea of asus transformer.. can it be all in one device? smartphone + tablet + laptop using just one os..

A Ford model T gets the job done too, but that doesnt stop new cars coming out every year. Dumb article. Silly thesis. |

Re: Lets talk smartphones
We are not really into 'smart-telephones' here, they are such trivial limited devices.

Re: Lets talk smartphones
So it's like Physics in the 1930s. We knew everything, all that was left was to tie up a few loose strings...then BLAM special relativity and quantum mechanics.
The number of times an article like this has been wrong is roughly equal to the number of times it has been written. One part of the definition of "disruptive innovation" is that the current market cannot yet see it. The only thing certain about the future of any technology is that the next "big thing" won't be predicted by the mainstream or, for that matter, leaders within that particular industry. Who changed smartphones the most in the last ten years? An mp3 player company. |
Re: Lets talk smartphones
I think something like the concept of Ubuntu for Android will be the future.
