My first encounter with an Android (T-Mobile Pulse)
 |
Recently I had a chance to try out my first Android device. It's called the "T-Mobile Pulse / Huawei U8220 ". Previously I tried an HTC Diamond, which was running on Windows Mobile, both platforms have a very nice UI. |
At first, when the boot-up screen showed up, I thought to myself that these devices are just like PC-s from now on, rather than mobile-phones. Not to speak about those very high DPI values. It is also very comfortable and useful that you can rotate the mobile by 90 degrees both direction, the display is going to be rearranged.
The Pulse has a version 1.5 of Android, and it features aGPS, 3.2mp camera, g-sensor, Wifi, etc...
About Andoid
just take a quick look at this chart...
android (blue) | windows mobile (red) | symbian (orange)
This chart shows you that Android really has future or at least, people are very curious about it. There is more and more Android devices on the market, which exactly the signal of that.
Although I got some errors from the system once in a while, generally I can tell, that the system is pretty stable.
I like the idea of 'Market'. This little application helps you to download games and various applications from the Internet.
Good news that most of the applications and games are free. The best thing is that the whole SDK is open-source, with tons of API-s.
Android User Interface's look nice, and it's fast. A developer can apply already existing themes, styles to an application's components and it is a big time saver.
Built-in applications

API levels
Android has API levels. The framework API consists of
packages and classes, XML elements and attributes, etc..
The newest at the moment is API level 7, the platform version for this is Android 2.1.
For obvious reasons Android applications are not necessarily backward compatible. I think thats why the famous Barcode-Scanner wasn't working on Android 1.5. (It couldn't use the camera)
Fortunately, Android applications are generally forward-compatible with new versions of the Android platform.

Summary
Android is a relatively new mobile platform, and even now there are thousands and thousands mind-blowing applications out there, most of them for free. I hope that those applications above give you the idea what developers can do on Android.
I am really looking forward seeing what's going to be happen to Android apps in the next few years.

Androids - The Best!!!!
Androids are awesome. I think they are better than Iphone. They are faster overall. When I checked my sites like Power4home or Greendiyenergy and Prostacet , they load fast unlike other phones out there.
Apps
Its quite phenomenal how many different apps are being developed on the market, almost too many to choose from unless you want to spend hours browsing

Android Dev
Haven't had a chance to play about with the android system as yet but looks really nice from the video you've posted. Am going to be updating my cell shortly and the big choice for me is between iphone and an android handset.
One thing that appeals to me is ability to use custom apps on the phone. Does android allow custom apps to be used without jailbreaking? I have already done some android dev using the netbeans emulator.

Hesitation
When I faced the issue of buying a new cell phone, I was confused because I didn't realise how huge the market was. And as each victim of a advertisement at first i decided to buy iPhone, but my friend showed and told me about smartphones on the android platform and I fell in love with them :)

Android vs. iPhone
There's no doubt that Android is one of the trusted products when it comes to devices such as Smartphones. The Android finally had more sales than the iPhone for the first quarter of 2010 in Smartphone sales. It is because of the continuous patronage of the people. In a world in which every person seems to be fighting daily with financial obligations, the cellular phone market is still successful.
I had tried the T-Mobile
I had tried the T-Mobile Pulse phone at a convention pre-release when it was still codenamed Air Purifiers. I wasn’t all that impressive then, but it has come a long way. It really surprised me I tried the release version. I agree that the release user interface is great and its leaps and bounds above where they had been. I haven’t tried the HTC Diamond yet, but if it’s similar, then I will make a point to check it out.
great
i really like this site. thanks vigrx plus
Bar Code Impressive
If we can read Bar Code with the help of Android phone than I must say that this one is really impressive and handy addition.
Just imagine you are at big book stall just pick your phone and get all details about any book or you are at grocery store just pick any bar code printed pack and know the packing date and all.
Simply handful and amazing.

Hero User
I have the HTC Hero, and its a great phone, I love the intuative nav that android provides, but there are far more apps available to Iphone users, thats my only gripe at the moment. I really think (and hope) that android has what it takes to overtake apple, but untill there are a comparible number and diversity of apps available apple are always going to lead the way.
