Samsung Mobile Phones: the Mobile Phones of the Year

December 11th, 2009

Mike Smith asked:


So far the year 2008 has been an exciting year in the mobile phone market with Apple releasing their new iPhone 3G, Nokia with the New N96 and Sony Ericsson releasing a whole host of handsets trying to find something that will make the market buzz but so far with no luck.

You may ask yourself who has taken this year’s market and without a doubt the answer is Samsung with handset after handset making a real splash in the market.

It all started with is first full touch screen phone the Samsung F480 Tocco boasting such features as a large 2.8 inch touch screen, 7.2 MBPS for high speed data access, a 5 mega pixel camera and at last something to challenge the Nokia N95 with up to 8gb memory.

Samsung Mobile Phones then went from strength to strength with the Samsung Omnia now sporting an even bigger and better 3.2inch touch screen with the ability to display 16:9 aspect for all those widescreen needs not to mention, wi-fi, HSDPA, 3G and a whacking 16gb of memory moving right into to the iPhone territory for data storage.

One would have thought that Samsung would have kicked back legs up riding the wave of these two fantastic phones but it seems like this was not good enough with Samsung continuing to bring into the world, a phone with even more impressive style and features – the Samsung i8510 with 16GB of memory, again.

The Samsung i8510 16GB packs in so much, it’s hard to know where to begin. It’s simply the most functional mobile phone currently available. Not only is it packed with more features than a Swiss army knife not to mention the other mobile phones in the market at the moment, but also it is very stylish and fashionable. The Samsung i8510 is a slider phone with 8GB of internal memory. This version also comes with an 8GB memory card, taking its total memory capacity to 16GB. It has an 8 mega pixel camera with geo-tagging, auto focus, image stabilizer, face detection and blink detection. It can record high resolution video at 120 frames per second and there’s a built-in video editor. With TV out functionality videos and images can be viewed on a larger screen TV.

For even more flexibility and versatility the Samsung i8510 runs on the Symbian operating system. It has an optical mouse and a 2.8 inch screen with accelerometer. Other main features include HSDPA and Wifi for fast web browsing, a built in GPS receiver for sat nav and a media player supporting the now legendary DivX format and other advanced video formats.

Let’s wait and watch out for more pleasant surprises from Samsung in the days to come.

Nokia – the History

September 5th, 2009

Caroline Telford asked:


Nokia is known today as the largest manufacturer of mobile phones, having about 40 percent of the world market share in the second quarter of 2008. This company is even the reason why Finland is a prosperous country in which it is accounted for about 30 percent of the nation’s market capitalization. But Nokia had a really humble beginning-it all started in 1865.

Nokia’s Humble Beginning

In 1895, Fredrik Idestam established a wood-pulp mill, which is now known as the Nokia Corporation. It was first based in the south western Finland town called Tampere but was later relocated to Nokia town so that the company can use the Nokianvirta river. This river is believed to have better hydropower production. The river is where the company’s name, Nokia, originated.

Meanwhile, at the beginning of the 20th century, Finnish Rubber Works began establishing its factories. This company acquired the Nokia Wood Mills and also acquired a company producing telegraph and telephone cables, the Finish Cable Works. The merging of these three companies in 1967 led to the creation of the Nokia Corporation.

The new company tried producing many products like papers, bicycle, car tires, personal computers, footwear, communication cables, electricity generation machineries, televisions, aluminium, capacitors, and a lot more.

Shift to Mobile Communication Tools

Nokia started producing military as well as commercial mobile radio communications technology in the 1960s. It was in 1964 when the company started to create VHF-radio with Salora Oy. The two companies started to develop mobile phones for the NMT network standard. In 1982, they introduced their first car phone called the Mobira Senator, which weighted 9.8 kg.

In 1984, the merging with Salora Oy made the company to create its telecommunication branch named Nokia-Mobira Oy. In the same year, the company also launched the Mobira Talkman, the world’s first transportable phone.

Nokia introduced one of the world’s first handheld phones in 1987 and this was called Mobira Cityman 900. During those days, the Cityman is one of the most light-weight phones having only about 800 g. But its tag price is approximately 4,500 Euros. Although that was very expensive, Cityman was still considered a success.

The GSM Involvement

In 1988, Nokia Mobile Phone emerged from the Nokia Mobira Oy. After three years, the first Global Systems for Mobile Communications or GSM phone was introduced.

In 1992, the company decided to focus more on the telecommunications business. In the same year, Nokia launched its first GSM handset, which is the Nokia 1011. It was in 1994 that the Nokia tune was launched. It was the Nokia 2100 that featured this famous classic phone tune.

The success of Nokia continued until the world’s first satellite call was made in 1994 using a Nokia mobile phone. And in 1997, Nokia introduced a classic game highly associated with the company-Snake.

Finally, in 1998, Nokia mobile phones became the world’s leader. After a year, the company moved to further innovation with its launching of the first WAP handset in the world, the Nokia 7110.

Recent Success of Nokia

Nokia mobile phones continue to be one of the best and most innovative in the world. This was proven in 2002 with the company’s launching of Nokia 6650, its first 3G phone. The company even had its billion sales when it was able to sell billion units of Nokia 1100.

Nokia Corporation is also recognized in the world today as the fifth most valued brand.

From 1865 until today, Nokia continues to create mark on the mobile phone industry. Innovation is always at the top of this company and its history proved its fearless business moves that led it to its massive success.
