IPHONE 4 VS HTC EVO 4G....

With the shutter now publicly lifted from iphone 4 ,hoards of APPLE followers have now ready plans to ditch their worn of 3Gs model and move on to next iteration. But if you are not wearing heart-shaped locket with Steve Jobs inside,does the move to Iphone 4 creates sense? where previous iphone release have towered over with competition every way, this year release face more stiff  outer competition then ever by.Does Apple still have what it takes to reign supreme in smartphone battle? so we stacked iphone 4 side by side to those of its intimidating competition, its HTC Android powered EVO 4G...to find out... 

Display:

The HTC EVO boasts of a much larger display screen (4.3" compared to 3.5" on iPhone 4). However, iPhone 4 comes with a far superior 960x640 pixel "Retina display", which is the highest resolution among the current crop of smartphones.

Processor:

Apple has built-in their in-house A4 processor chip in the new iPhone, which can apparently clock 1GHz of processor speed. While HTC EVO's Snapdragon processor too clocks the same speed, it needs to be noted that handset manufacturers routinely clock down the speed in order to boost the battery life. We

may not be able to comprehensively judge the performance of the two processors at the moment as we still don't know at what speed iPhone 4's A4 processor is running.

Storage:

Both the devices offer storage of up to 32GB. iPhone 4 comes in two versions offering 16GB and 32GB of storage. On the other hand, HTC EVO 4G comes with a 8GB microSD card that is expandable up to 32GB.

Network:

Like iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 too will work over 3G network. In comparison, HTC EVO 4G shall run on Sprint's 4G network, which is a lot faster. However, we need to note that the 4G network is still not available in large parts of the country and hence may not be a determining factor for a majority of the customers.

Camera:

Both iPhone 4 and HTC EVO come with a front-facing and a rear-facing camera each. The rear-side camera on the iPhone 4 is equipped with a 5-megapixel CMOS. HTC EVO on the other hand, comes with a much higher 8-megapixel rear-side camera. However, as we have noted in the past, a higher megapixel on the camera sensor does not necessarily imply better quality images.

Video Recording:

Both the smartphones allow users to capture HD video. The iPhone 4 however captures videos at a marginally higher frames-per-second and also includes video editing functionalities.

Video Conferencing:

Again, thanks to the front-facing camera, both the devices allow video conferencing. iPhone 4 users may use the natively supported FaceTime app for Wi-Fi based video conferencing. HTC EVO users will need to purchase the Qik app that is available for $5. A basic version of the app is also available for free at the Android marketplace. Video conferencing on HTC EVO may be carried out over the carrier's 3G or 4G network apart from Wi-Fi.

Battery Life:

An improved battery life has been one of the most significant improvements in iPhone 4. Apple claimsthat iPhone 4 will provide a talk time of 7 hours on 3G and close to 14 hours on 2G. HTC EVO 4G in comparison offers only up to 6 hours of talk time.

Operating System:

iPhone 4 will come pre-installed with Apple's new iOS 4.0 that includes more than 100 new features while HTC EVO 4G currently comes installed with Android 2.1. However, it should soon get the Android 2.2 update that was unveiled by Google recently, which brings new features such Adobe Flash 10.1, Wi-Fi Hotspot etc.

Price:

AT&T has retained the older iPhone 3GS price point for iPhone 4. Users can purchase the 16GB and 32GB iPhone 4 model at $199 and $299 respectively when it goes on sale on June 24. On the other hand, HTC EVO 4G is already available with Sprint at $199 after a $100 mail-in rebate. Both the plans come with a two-year contract period.

Windows Phone in China

Is Windows Phone starting to present the iPhone a run for its money in China? Microsoft thinks so.

Making its debut among Chinese consumers just two months ago, Windows Phone has already picked up a market share of 7 percent, according to Microsoft. That's a spot elevated than the 6 percent carve up owned by Apple's iPhone.

And Michel van der Bel, Microsoft's Chief Operating Officer for the Greater China Region, sees the market growing further, according to online business magazine Emerce

"We've only just begun," Bel said, considering that the blend of smartphones and Windows PC tablets will help Microsoft put on further grip amid both Chinese individuals and businesses. Such an approach will come in clever due to the increasing consumerization of IT, he added.

But the company tackles a mounting clash, Bel admitted. Android currently dominates China with a market share of around 69 percent. And Windows Phone is still far behind in the app pitch compared with Google's mobile OS.

Microsoft currently employs around 2,500 people in its R&D department in China, but Bel says the company requires investing more profoundly in the country.

Related stories says that Microsoft hopes Windows Phone summit can shrink the app gap, Microsoft offers Windows phones to Android haters, Windows Phone has received a shot in the arm in certain parts of the world, thanks to Nokia's Lumia handsets. The Lumia 900 has proven to be a hot commodity in the United States but has seen more sluggish demand in other countries, notably the U.K.

Business card storage made easy...

Right now you might possess so many business card that you might have got pissed off. Every other conference or meeting you attend, you are supposing to share your business cards and vice versa. Off all of those some are really good for nothing while some need to take a special care and to be preserved as it has lot of important value to you…

The first app i tested was Bizsnap from iapp...When you’re ready to snap a photo of the business card, BizSnap puts a guide box on the iPhone screen for you to position the card. The custom Take Photo button is color-coded; when the camera is still and in-focus, it turns from red to green. To recognize the text on the card, the image is actually sent to BizSnap’s servers, which perform the optical character recognition (OCR) and send the data back to your device. The process usually takes no longer than a minute, but obviously requires that your iPhone be online. You can shoot card photos and save the recognition process for later. When your scanned text comes back, BizSnap also scores the quality of your photo. I found that it complained a lot about photos that other apps scanned with ease. Overall, the OCR is acceptable, but noticeably more error prone than some of the apps I tried.

After throwing the useless ones to thrash, you hold so many important ones right?? So this is for all of you out there who want to accumulate all the necessary information relating to business cards. So for this process you need certain apps downloaded to your phone and obviously a normal camera phone.

The next app I tried was Business Card Reader. In a obvious advantage over its competitors, Business Card Reader lets you tap wherever on the screen when you’re photographing cards, which makes taking good pictures easier. When you tap to snap the photo, the app waits until you’re holding still before it actually takes the picture, which is an especially nice touch. Like BizSnap, it shows on-screen markers to help you position the card properly before its close-up.

Once you’ve snapped your photo, Business Card Reader does its OCR scanning right on your iPhone. Scanning takes seconds, and worked with impressive accuracy. Once you’re happy with the information, Business Card Reader offers options to create a new contact, or to merge the new data with an existing contact.

There are many others apps too like World card mobile, Abbyy app etc…you got to highlight this that you got to click your cards in a good brightness and no shadow room or else errors may occur.
