In October 2008, HTC released the HTC Dream, the first phone to use Android. The software suite included on the phone consists of integration with Google's proprietary applications, such as Maps, Calendar, and Gmail, and a full HTML web browser.

It is the operating system that powers the company's iDevices. In 2007, Apple Inc. introduced the iPhone, the first device to use iOS and one of the first smartphones to use a multi-touch interface. The iPhone was notable for its use of a large touchscreen for direct finger input as its main means of interaction, instead of stylus, keyboard, or keypad as typical for smartphones at the time. In 2008, Apple introduced the App Store, which allowed any iPhone to install third-party native applications. Featuring over 500 applications at launch, the App Store eventually achieved 1 billion downloads in the first year, and 15 billion by 2011.

- 11. 11 Mobile Network There are three main types of mobile networks, › GSM (2G) – Global System for Mobile › HSPA (3G) – High Speed Packet Access › LTE (4G) – Long Term Evolution Most of the top class smartphones in the world are using the LTE (4g) Network technology. But 89% of smartphones in the world are still using the HSPA (3G) networking facility. GSM (2G) network is the basic network technology which is not used in the smartphones. But the previous basic mobile phones had this technology. WLAN WLAN is a Network connection which allows us to transfer data on wireless media such as internet. WLAN is also known as Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi file sharing, Wi-Fi direct, Wi-Fi portable hotspot are the facilities of WLAN. Bluetooth This is also a major file transferring technology used in smartphones. It can be transfer files wirelessly with low transfer speed. NFC This is also a file transferring technology used in newer smartphones. It can be transfer files wirelessly with higher transfer speed.
- 12. 12 Display There are lot of display types used in mobile phones. They can be either color or monochrome. Monochrome displays on the other hand can be alphanumeric or graphic. Alphanumeric displays can show only symbols with a constant size, while graphic displays can show fonts of different sizes and animations. Colour displays divided into ten types, CSTN (Colour Super Twisted Nematic ) TFT (Thin Film Transistor) TFD ( Thin Film Diode) OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) AMOLED (Active-Matrix Organic Light-emitting Diode) Super AMOLED (Super Active-Matrix Organic Light-emitting Diode) Retina Display Haptic/Tactile Display Capactive Display Resistive Display GPS (Global Positioning System) The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a space-based satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. The system provides critical capabilities to military, civil, and commercial users around the world. The United States government created the system, maintains it, and makes it freely accessible to anyone with a GPS receiver
- 13. 13 Sensors Camera Most Smart devices have built-in sensors that measure motion, orientation, and various environmental conditions. These sensors are capable of providing raw data with high precision and accuracy, and are useful if you want to monitor three-dimensional device movement or positioning, or you want to monitor changes in the ambient environment near a device. The Android platform supports three broad categories of sensors: Motion Sensors Accelerometer, Gravity, Gyroscope Environmental Sensors Ambient temperature, Ambient Light, Pressure Position Sensors Compass, Orientation, Proximity All of the Smartphones in present have cameras. There can be Primary(Back) Camera and Secondary(front facing) Camera. And most of those can record videos also. Flasher light and Fixed focus lenses are common in those. Most have Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and can make geotagged photographs.

- 16. 16 2. Get the Right Size: Phablet or No Phablet? Big-screen phones are growing on shoppers. In fact, phablets (phones with displays 5 inches or larger) now account for about a quarter of all smartphones sold. Nevertheless, the iPhone 5s, which sports a 4-inch screen, is the best-selling smartphone in the U.S. A smaller display allows for a more compact design. But if you want something bigger, you’ll want to opt for an Android or Windows Phone handset.
- 17. 17 3. Pay Attention to These Specs Processor A phone’s processor is the brain of the device, and a fast one will enable you to open apps quickly, play games smoothly and even edit video. Today’s state-of-the-art chip for Android and Windows Phones is Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 800. RAM The amount of system memory plays a significant role in how well a smartphone performs. Today’s flagship devices offer 2GB to 3GB of RAM, while lower-end to midrange phones get away with 1 GB to 1.5 GB. Screen The size of the screen definitely matters, but so do the brightness, sharpness, color and viewing angles. Right now, 1080p screens (1920 x 1080 pixels) are the sharpest you’ll find on smartphones. Storage and Expantion Given that you’ll store everything from photos and music to videos and apps on your smartphone, opt for as much internal memory up front as you can. Although 16GB is fairly standard, we suggest 32GB of storage. It’s becoming a lot harder to find, but if you like the idea of expandable storage, choose a device that has a microSD card slot.

Get the Best Camera Possible (and Don’t Obsess Over Megapixels) Just when you thought the megapixel war was over, there’s now a handful of smartphones with 20- MP cameras or higher — and more are certainly on the way. Also look for camera features that you’ll actually use.(Optical image stabilization, reduce blur)
- 19. 19 5. Don’t Settle for Low Battery Life One way to tell how much juice your smartphone will provide on a charge is to take a look at the battery capacity. If you care about endurance, the closer you get to 3,000 mAh (milliamp hours) — or above the better.
