Android or: How I Learned to Stop Using Love and Nokia Smartphones
Last Friday, due to an unfortunate and mysterious accident that the display has disintegrated, my old and glorious Nokia 3600 slide was forced to forced early retirement. I already had in mind when the 3600 had reached its natural end, to betray Nokia * for an Android smartphone , so I quickly put in the hunt for a fair cost with a contraption that would allow me to try the green robot. I focused on 'LG Optimus GT540, which all'accettabilissimo price 169 Euri (exactly what I had paid 3600 in 2008) offers everything I was looking for: a good 3 MP camera, Wi-Fi, GPS , FM radio with RDS and the rest of the package Android. I will not go into technical and because I do not have the skills, is tedious, as you risk (more than it already is, I mean), but use half a day was enough to transform into a converted . Optimus that I bought has certainly its limitations in the display, even if a good sensibility, can not compete with that of an iPhone, the camera has no flash, and 3 MP only beginning to be acceptable to a mobile phone ** and some configuration options may be more immediate, I have not managed to understand how GPS works, but for 169 euros and definitely a great purchase. And, unlike the iPhone is a phone that gives the impression of being owned by the user, and not only on loan to use: The battery can be replaced, you can connect via Bluetooth to any compatible device and not just another iPhone, you can also install third party apps and not only (but fully stocked) Android Market. In short, it is a smartphone open it, as it opened its OS. Mind you, I think the iPhone is more revolutionary tecnoaggeggio in recent years (much dell'iPad or iPod), and even though I've only tried a couple owned by friends (ehm. ..) I greatly enjoyed , but the open source philosophy behind Android I like a lot more of ' hortus conclusus of Apple, and because the user experience seems at least comparable, the choice is easy. And I'm sorry for Nokia, but I will not give the impression that if short-Symbian, will not go away. The difference with IOS and Android is embarrassing.
And then, something that apparently is not so predictable lately , put my LG 170 phone Euri even better than an iPhone that costs three times as much.
Ah, it seems superfluous to add that neither LG, neither Nokia nor Apple have never given me a dime or a telephone to try.
* I speak of treason because those who know me know that I've always been a fundamentalist of the Finnish: the 5 phones I've owned so far (the mythical 3210, 3310, 3510 , 6610th and, specifically, 3600) were all from Espoo, and in testimony to their excellent quality, are all still (except the last) in perfect working order.
** I know it's paradoxical: only 10 years ago was the Canon EOS D30 to have a 3MP sensor, and now are barely sufficient for a cell phone
