Samsung vs Nokia vs Apple: Who is number one?
At stake are two crowns: Who is the King of the Smartphones across the world and who is the Master of the Universe in total mobile phone sales? Who is number one? This is the fun story.
Few Facts- Samsung Shipped 44.5million smartphones and overtook Apple, 35.06 million units, to become the world's number one smartphone vendor. Samsung Electronics in the first quarter overtook Nokia Corp to become the world's largest cellphone brand for the 1st time. Samsung sold 92million units to Nokia's 83million units. It's a comparison among the 3 major mobile phone players: Samsung, Nokia and Apple.
For 14years, Nokia has reigned supreme. It has been the first cell-phone for most people across the world, the first user-friendly cell phone company, it is synonymous with the word "Mobile Phones". It has got more brand recall than any other cell phone brand across the world. But now the game has changed. Nokia "WAS" the undisputed monarch and the king of the mobile phone.
Birth of Smartphones technology has turned the table. But that does not mean that Nokia is dead. How can a company that sells 83 million units be dead? This misdiagnosed of Nokia is based on the fact that its Windows Phone Smartphones sales have not set the world on fire. While it is true that mobile phone growth currently is predominantly fuelled by smartphone sales, the feature phone market is not dead, at least for next 5 years. There is still time with Nokia and Microsoft to plan their smartphone future well. Nokia Windows smartphones sales reflect the typical sluggishness of a huge transition and it is way too early to knock them off the smartphone market completely.
Whereas Samsung is the new Smartphone king/ smartphone leader and most people tend to agree with that analysis. It has sold 9 million more smartphones than Apple and has dozen of variants in smartphone category with players in Android, Windows Phone and its own OS, that does leave Apple with its only iPhone strategy, little weak. So now the case is closed with Samsung been a leader. Right??NO. The smartphone arena is no longer about the device itself but the entire ecosystem: apps that consumers bought, accessories available for that company's products, music downloaded, videos and movies bought, eBooks sold to users of that device. And in this arena, there is only one one UNDISPUTED KING- APPLE.

Losing Fat And Looking All That

by Jill Anne White One of the main motivators I used to help me lose fat was the desire to be stronger, faster to keep a step ahead of my fast growing, very fit young son. One of the best side-effects of weight loss are the compliments that are forthcoming from my friends. Now I am not saying I look all that, in fact, I am sure I'm far from it. I do think I am a better looking version of my former self though and I have to admit, it does give me confidence and I like thinking that maybe those second looks I get are for the right reasons now. The odd thing is, I didn't lose weight then start to feel confident about how I was looking. Instead, I began to pay attention to my good points, (we all have them, so go check yours out when you finish reading). Being happy about my best attributes helped put me in a healthy mindset for weight loss. I know many people think to themselves, "I'll be so happy when I lose weight, I'd be happier if I were thinner etc....

23 Top Tips for Planning a Great Wedding On a Small Budget

by Anthony Coogan Apart from buying a property, a wedding is the most difficult event that most people have to plan and prepare for. It becomes even more challenging when working to a tight budget. Here are some pointers to help you get the best value for money. How to Budget: When working within strict financial guidelines your wedding expenses have to be decided and planned carefully. Whoever is paying, whether it is you or your parents, or a combination of both, it is wise to set a limit of the funding available. Keep an eye on the big picture and be careful not to over commit. Given that the average cost of a traditional wedding is somewhere in the region of $35,000, running over by as little as 15 per cent will cost you another $5,000.
