4 Reasons for Apple iPhone 5 Cut Android Adoption in 2011

Apple’s iPhone has been nothing short of an unbridled success in the mobile market. Since its launch in 2007, Apple has sold millions of smartphones to customers around the world, and several companies, like Motorola Mobility, HTC, and others, have tried to jump on that bandwagon and generate the same kind of cash Apple has been able to tally.
In some cases, those competitors, who have opted in most cases to run Google’s Android platform, have been successful at achieving success in the mobile space. In other cases, they have not. But with each passing year, Apple’s competitors seem to believe that with the right product, they can supplant the iPhone as the top smartphone in the market.
Android might eventually become the top mobile operating system in the marketplace, but through 2011, Android adoption won’t be as high as some think.
Here’s why:
1. The possibility of a slimmer, cheaper iPhone is huge
Recent rumors suggest that Apple is considering offering a slimmer, cheaper iPhone that will offer those on a budget an opportunity to get into the smartphone game. Currently, there are several cheaper Android-based devices available to consumers. The only issue is, those cheaper Android options lack some important functions, and if Apple offers a cheaper version of the iPhone 5, Android alternatives will likely lose their commercial appeal to Apple’s new product.
2. There is too much fragmentation in the Android ecosystem
The Android ecosystem is a bit of a mess right now. There are a countless number of devices that are running several different versions of Android. There are also several applications stores that are compatible with varying devices. The iPhone 5, on the other hand, will offer a more uniform experience that customers have grown accustomed to. As more people start trying out different Android devices, they might realize that such uniformity really is better.http://www.bestlaptopbattery.co.uk

3. There aren’t enough “killer” Android smartphones
Let’s face it: when one considers all the Android smartphones on the market right now, there aren’t nearly as many outstanding devices as Google would like the market to believe. Motorola Mobility’s Droid X and the HTC Evo 4G are among the top Android-based devices on the market. But they compete in a space that’s also inundated with sub-par devices, like the Motorola Bravo and the HTC Aria. Even the Nexus S isn’t as appealing to customers as the Droid 2. Meanwhile, Apple keeps churning out highly sought-after products that sell extremely well. If nothing else, consumers will know later this year that opting for a device like the iPhone 5 won’t be as big of a risk as choosing an Android-based smartphone that might or might not work well.
4. The rumors suggest more choice
As with any Apple product, rumors surrounding the iPhone 5 are everywhere. Some are more plausible than others. But so far, there is a single persistent rumor that makes quite a bit of sense: there will be more iPhone model options available to customers. Granted, that might only mean that Apple offers up the iPhone 5 and a slimmer, cheaper version of the smartphone, but the company might also offer the previous generation iPhone 4 at a reduced price. After all, this strategy worked quite well with the iPhone 3GS. Later this year, consumers might be able to choose from a reduced iPhone 4, a new iPhone 5, and a cheaper iPhone alternative. With three devices on store shelves, Apple will be able to attract more customers. This could definitely cut into Android adoption.

Apple iPad 3 Speculation Hits Web

Apple iPad 3 rumors raced across the Web after Daring Fireball's Dan Gruber posted a theory about Apple's iPad roadmap for 2011.images-64
Apple’s iPad 2? Never mind the lack of official unveiling—for much of the blogosphere, it seems the company’s next-generation tablet is already old news.
No, the new focus, however temporarily, is on the iPad 3.
Many of the rumors swirling around the third-generation device seem to have started with Daring Fireball’s Dan Gruber, who in a Feb. 9 posting detailed what he called a “theory” about its release.
Discussing the summer release of Hewlett-Packard’s upcoming TouchPad tablet, he wrote: “Summer feels like a long time away. If my theory is right, they’re not only going to be months behind the iPad 2, but if they slip until late summer, they might bump up against the release of the iPad 3.”
Later that day, Gruber clarified his pronouncement: “My gut feeling is that Apple will move the iPad to a September release schedule, alongside the iPods.” In that spirit, his “guess” was that Apple would debut the iPad 2 in March, for an early-April shipping window, and then ship the iPad 3 in September.
“How could Apple release a third-generation iPad just six months or so after the second one?” he wrote. “Maybe it won’t be an actual next-generation model. Maybe it’s more like an iPad 2.5, or iPad 2 Pro.”
Guesswork or not, other publications seemed to take the ball and run with it. By the morning of Feb. 10, the Washington Post’s headline—“iPad 3 to have Fall 2011 launch? Some say it makes sense”—was front-and-center on Google News, referencing Gruber’s postings.

The iPad 3 theories contribute to what’s already a white-hot furnace of speculation over everything iPad-related. On Feb. 9, the Wall Street Journal published a report suggesting that Apple had already started production on its next-generation iPad.
The company’s newest tablet will be “thinner and lighter than the first model,”unnamed sources apparently told the Journal, while suggesting that it would include a front-facing camera for video conferencing, more memory, and a boosted graphics processor.
Other reports have suggested that the next iPad will lack a Retina Display or similar high-resolution screen. “Our sources say Apple has requested that manufacturers begin work on displays with that resolution for the iPad 3,” IDC research manager Tom Mainelli told PC World, after a DigiTimes report that the next iPad would boast a resolution of 2048 x 1536.

    • Apple’s lack of official word on its upcoming products has a habit of driving bloggers and analysts into a frenzy. The original iPad attracted no end of speculation in the weeks ahead of its initial release, and the next version—whenever it comes out—seems to be mimicking that trend.

    Top 7 Questions About The iPad 2

    Will the iPad 2 be generally the same size and design as the original iPad?

    This seems likely. The iPad's 10-inch screen is a good middle ground between a smartphone and a laptop.
    But we assume the iPad 2 will be thinner. And the case itself may be made out of different materials.BONUS: iAds for iPad? by bestlaptopbattery.co.uk

    Will the iPad 2 support Verizon?

    Apple has already started selling the iPad at Verizon Wireless, bundled with a mi-fi wireless hotspot.
    Given that the companies now have an official relationship, it makes sense that the iPad 2 could ship in a Verizon-compatible edition. (Perhaps alongside a Verizon iPhone.)
    Now the question is: Will the iPad 2 support Verizon's (and AT&T's) new 4G networks? Or only 3G for now, because of battery life, 4G network size, etc.?
    And: Will Apple let carriers subsidize the price of the iPad, if someone signs a 2-year data contract?

    When the iPad 2 comes out, what happens to the first iPad?

    We assume the iPad 2 will cost the same $499 entry price as the iPad. (Barring any carrier subsidies.)
    But if Apple can, it makes sense to knock the price of the original iPad down by $100 or $150, using it to draw people into the store, the way the $99 iPhone does. (Many of those people will actually end up buying the more expensive iPad 2.)
    The future of the iPad is having three or four of them sitting around the house and office. So the more affordable Apple can make them, the faster that future can be realized.

    Will the iPad 2 have a retina display?

    Will the iPad 2 have a retina display? by bestlaptopbattery.co.uk
    It makes sense for Apple to increase the screen resolution on the iPad, the way it has with the iPhone and iPod touch. But as many have argued, it would be challenging for Apple to quadruple the iPad's resolution the way it has with its smaller devices. That would be a LOT of pixels to power.
    Perhaps a middle ground, that's more pixel-dense than today's iPad, but not as crazy as the iPhone?
    Or maybe Apple will really push the limits and push out an amazingly gorgeous 10-inch retina display?

    Will there be a front-facing camera for FaceTime chats?

    This is one of the most obvious, definite additions to the iPad 2. We fully expect a front-facing camera on the new iPad.
    And it looks like there will also be a camera on the back, too, to keep consistent with the iOS lineup.

    An iPad mini?

    The newest tablets out there -- Samsung Galaxy Tab, RIM BlackBerry PlayBook -- seem to be converging on 7-inch screen size. And it's been rumored that Apple will also have a 7-inch iPad at some point.
    Perhaps the market will eventually force Apple to make something like this. And there's no doubt that Apple has internally tested something like this. But we don't think this is going to happen in 2011.An iPad mini? by bestlaptopbattery.co.uk
    Steve Jobs has slammed the 7-inch screen as being too small, and said that Apple thinks the 10-inch size is the minimum to create great tablet apps.
    If anything, perhaps Apple will offer a bigger iPad before it offers a smaller one.

    How thin can the iPad 2 get?

    The next iPad will almost certainly be thinner. The existing one feels pretty hollow, so we think Apple could save some space on the inside and make a thinner iPad.
    RIM promises that its BlackBerry PlayBook will be 10 mm thin, or roughly 1/3 thinner than the iPad. Samsung's Galaxy Tab is a hair thinner than the iPad, too.
    Apple has a habit of making things unbelievably thin, like the original iPhone, and the iPhone 4, and the new MacBook Air. So look for Apple to really wow people here.
