8 Alasan OS Android Kuasai Dunia

Jakarta - Sistem operasi Android baru saja menjungkalkan Symbian, sebagai OS mobile terpopuler di dunia. Ini adalah tonggak yang penting bagi Google dan memberikan sinyal bahwa Android memang akan mendominasi ranah ponsel sejagat.

Kira-kira, apa sebabnya Android bisa melesat dan menguasai pasar smartphone dengan cepat? Berikut ada delapan alasannya, seperti dikutip detikINET dari eWeek, Kamis (3/2/2011):

1. Setiap Versi Bertambah Baik

Dengan upgrade rutin yang dilakukan, setiap versi Android dijamin semakin baik performa maupun fiturnya. Versi terbaru yakni Android 3.0 atau Honeycomb menjanjikan penambahan kualitas yang signifikan.

2. Smartphone Android Memang Bagus

Kesuksesan Android tidak lepas dari smartphone pengusung OS ini, yang memiliki bermacam fitur bagus. Sebut saja Droid X, Galaxy S sampai HTC Evo memiliki banyak kelebihan sehingga konsumen tertarik membelinya.

3. Membiarkan RIM Terlena

Pada awalnya, Google seakan terkesan membiarkan BlackBerry dari RIM menguasai pasar enterprise. Penjualan Android lebih terfokus pada konsumen umum. Namun setelah sukses di pasar consumer, kini Android mulai membidik pebisnis dan makin banyak kalangan korporat memakai Android ketimbang BlackBerry.

4. Dengan Sedikit Model, Apple Tidak Dapat Melawan Android

Dengan hanya memasarkan iPhone 3GS dan iPhone 4, Apple semakin kelabakan melawan Android. Lusinan smartphone Android bukanlah lawan yang sebanding meski iPhone sebenarnya masih sangat laris.

5. Penurunan Pangsa Pasar Microsoft

Peruntungan Microsoft di ranah OS mobile kurang baik belakangan ini. Peluncuran Windows Phone 7 dinilai terlambat dan pangsa pasar mereka menurun. Hal ini memberi celah bagi Android meraih semakin banyak kue pasar smartphone.

6. Nokia Sempoyongan

Dari yang semula sangat dominan menguasai arena smartphone, Nokia kini mulai sempoyongan. Salah satu alasannya, OS Symbian yang kukuh mereka pakai dianggap ketinggalan zaman dibandingkan Android. Jadilah konsumen mulai banyak melirik OS robot hijau.

7. Dukungan Vendor Kelas Atas

Dukungan penuh vendor kelas atas amat membantu melonjakkan popularitas Android. Bahkan mungkin tanpa dukungan nama-nama seperti Samsung, Motorola dan HTC yang menyajikan ponsel berkelas, Android tidak bakal sesukses sekarang.

8. Keampuhan Merek Google

Reputasi merek Google yang hebat membuat para konsumen tidak meragukan Android. Mereka sepertinya memercayai Android akan memberikan sebuah pengalaman memakai smartphone yang bisa mereka nikmati.

Samsung Galaxy S Pro With Keyboard Rumored

There are touchscreen only fans and hardware keyboard fans and some folks are adamant about having it one way or another. That’s why when an amazing mobile phone like the Motorola Droid – or in this case the Samsung Galaxy S – are announced, one knee-jerk reaction is to wonder what the phone would be like if they offered an alternate version. We’re all familiar with the practice of adding a slideout QWERTY and slapping a “Pro” on to the end of the name, and that is exactly what HDBlog.it are suggesting will happen with the Samsung Galaxy S. The above picture is only a mock-up and is NOT real. But, rumor has it a phone that looks very similar to the Galaxy S will add the keyboard and start selling in late summer, after the original S has been on the market a couple months. Is there any truth to the rumor? No way of knowing. Would you be happy if the rumor came true? Different question completely… and one that I’d love for YOU to answer. by Rob Jackson on March 30th, 2010 Sumber : Ph...

40 Flash Sites for Android 2.2 Phones

Daniel Ionescu , PCWorld Sep 23, 2010 8:54 pm Welcome Droid X owners to the mobile world of Adobe Flash on a smartphone - the world Steve Jobs doesn't want you to see . This week Motorola Droid X joins a small but growing club of devices running Android 2.2 (aka Froyo ). The biggest improvement delivered by Android 2.2 is support for Adobe Flash Player 10.1 for smartphones. Before Android 2.2, surfing Flash-enhanced sites on a mobile phone was a limited experience only available to a couple of Nokia phones. But now, with Froyo running on around 30 percent of all Android phones, by Google's own estimates that is, we are just starting to get the taste of Flash on smartphones. For many the addition of Flash is a big deal, but the next question is what's there to do now? Sadly, because Flash for Android smartphones is so new there are few Flash sites optimised for the platform that take into considerations sm...
