I am addicted to Samsung Mobile Galaxy S2 phone. It never occur to me that mobile technology has progressed by leaps and bounds the past few years .  There are so many things that you can do with it nowadays. It is no longer just a normal phone one use  to typically make or receive calls. On a personal note, for me, Android OS is indeed a life changing technology that opens up new opportunities to connect and reach out to the world.

It has become somewhat like a Swiss all in one army knife so to speak. Integrated high resolution camera, huge memory storage, high speed processor, GPS,  improve wireless technology, larger screen display and other plethora of function rich enhancements turn a palm size communication gadget into super powerful mini computer.

Mobile applications are  key enablers that makes it what it is of today.  Apart from standard apps such as SMS, email, camera, games, radio and music,  mobile social media networking and bookmarking apps such as Facebook, YouTube, StumbleUpon and tons of cool apps makes it a must bring along gadget wherever you are.

One interesting and cool feature that I really like is the fact that you can instantly upload pictures and videos that you capture from you phone to YouTube or Facebook!. You can also blog while you are on the move, say in the bus or train but please refrain from doing while you are on the wheels driving!

You can also do serious work stuffs with it too for instance, write and respond to business emails, create or edit documents such as spreadsheets and all sort of Office documents. Boy, you can even do live video conferencing with people half the world away.  I wonder what else the smart phone cannot do!.

Okay, I think I am getting ahead of myself. I am really glued and stuck to Android apps.  Even though the Galaxy S2 is not the best smart-phone around, nevertheless I like it because it is quite easy to use, and not restricted to stuffs like Apple where most apps need to be register and downloaded via iTune.

Last but not least, all serious Internet Marketers and online business entrepreneurs should not overlook the potential to generate lucrative income with  mobile marketing.  Google indicates that its daily mobile ads revenue is at least US$10million a day!

More and more consumers are making purchase and e-commerce transaction via their mobile phone so the sooner you mobilize your online business the sooner you get to reach out to billions of prospects and customers.  Mobile marketing is not the future, it is now and you need to make plans to make your business websites to be mobile friendly.

PS: If you are an Android phone user and you are looking for free apps then you are in for a good treat.  Recently I discovered a site that contains lots of cool Android apps. Please check  Android mobile apps  and do take note that you have to use your own discretion and judgement on whether to install it or not.  Some of the apps are known to compromise your smart phone security so watch out for it!

Samsung Galaxy Note is a huge smart phone by comparison with class of its kind.  This  company has redefine what it means to be big, that big is beautiful and elegant.  Don’t take my word for it, you got to hold and feel it your palm in order experience just how large it is.

Even though it is a jumbo size king, it remain as slim as the Samsung Galaxy S2.  The designer of this product is really smart indeed.  By maintaining the same width and slimness as that of its predecessors, somehow you still find it quite comfortable to hold it.

The 5″3 inch high definition  Super AMOLED display is as awesome as it is gorgeous; powered by Android operating system, this fella packs a powerful punch with full myriads of features and capabilities!. You can get the full details of its specification on Samsung Galaxy Note site.

Quite honestly speaking, I don't mind owning one of these. Even though it is quite huge by comparison with other models , I think the large screen is good for those who has trouble with eye sight particularly farsightedness. Aging people will find the large crystal clear screen a plus. Furthermore, you don't get to strain your eye too much because everything looks that much bigger. Like any other fragile products, you need to handle this huge smart phone with care. Drop it at your peril so to speak. Obviously you need to operate it using both hands. If you intend to get a cover for it then do get one which improves your grip (anti-slip) material. Given a choice between iPhone and this baby I would still give Note higher preference due to the following namely 1) the battery can be replace 2) external micro SD memory expansion, both which are lacking in iPhone.

I still recalled the earlier years where mobile wireless handsets are as big and heavy as a brick. With advancement in microelectronics and mobile technology mobile phone dimensions start to shrink. Small implies elegance and classy.

I am latecomer to the using smart phone. I was still using an old Nokia mobile phone that only comes only with basis features such as SMS and calls receive capability. I decided to change to Samsung Galaxy S2 when my phone plan expired last month.

Samsung is a market leader for smart phones. The company is now positioned to brand itself as a trend setter much like Apple. I would never switch back to my old Nokia phone again.

I can’t imagine leaving home without my smart phone. I love Android; it is feature rich and really cool with many free apps. Facebook, YouTube, emails, online browsing, games, you name it, the Android apps are readily available and they are free!

With the data plan of 12GB per month, like most average user, I guess I will never reach the quota limits by just surfing the web. Furthermore, like most people I usually prefer to use the wifi for connection when I am at home or in places with wifi hotspots.

Smart phones get slimmer and smaller by each successive model. Samsung has of recent redefine what smart phone dimension is to be. Apparently now it seems that the bigger the dimension the better it is.

Take a look at the size of Samsung’s latest smart phone, the Samsung Notes. It is almost the size of a ping-pong bat. I bet you can even  play table tennis with it. Yeah, sure do the screen looks big and comfortable to the eyes but it is too huge a dimension to fit nicely into your front or back pockets.

With a 5”3 inch screen display, this smart phone is by far the largest of its kind. Powered by Android OS, I have no doubt that it will be well accepted by consumers particularly Samsung smart phone fans.

The Note was designed and positioned in the market as an in between average smart phone and the Samsung mini tablet. I guess that is fine but I don’t think it is going to be a top Samsung products because of its sheer size which may put off some people who might find it inconvenience to carry around.

Surprisingly I think the ladies may find the Notes a good and nice to have products because they can put it into their handbags. Well, I am happy with my S2, and regardless of the size.

The major problem with all smart phones is the battery life. Wifi and 3G data access it drains a lot of power and as a result you got to charge it almost everyday. I have to set the display brightness to minimum and disable GPS tracking feature otherwise the battery will be flat by end of the day even if I don’t use it to call or surf the net.

Who knows, perhaps there will come a time whereby smart phone will be powered by super mini nuclear cell thus alleviating the need to charge for years just like nuclear submarines.

For sure I won’t be able to witness that in my time, perhaps the generation after the next! Cheers

I am thinking of getting a new smartphone. I guess I am really a late comer when it comes to high tech mobile phone. I am quite impressed with Samsung Galaxy IIs and it is my first choice but with iPhone5 on the horizon I guess I am spoilt for choices. Well, since iPhone5 launch event is just around the corner I’ll just sit tight and hang on for the moment and then later decide which one to go far.
