Google feels steam for Galaxy brand
Wednesday 3 April 2013
Google is in huge pressure under the Galaxy brand’s
increasing popularity. Samsung is taking Google to the world, where Droid will
be back-bencher & Samsung leading the smartphone industry in all flavour.
A bit confused? Galaxy is using Google’s OS Android, then
how can Google feel steam with Galaxy’s popularity? Is it not increasing
Google’s value alongwith? Seems so. But the power of authority says another
word. Let me explain this…
Galaxy brand is a boom in the smartphone market. It not only
outranked Apple iphones from the top in
market-share, but almost grab the majority of Android devices. In 2012, Samsung
alone hold 42% of the whole Android market. And with Galaxy S4 knocking at the
door, the percentage may cross half-stage mark within 3rd quarter of
2013. This unthinkable success gives Samsung the power of authority to bid
Google for it.
Google was launched with the theme of egalitarian. But the
number has forced to concentrate on Samsung , and the license to go wild with
the OS. So far, Google has maintained control over device-maker by holding its
own closed-source Google apps hostage. But when a single brand takes over the
majority of a platform, I doubt Samsung can take part in Android’s vision and
decision making processes. The Galaxy brand has overtaken the droid band.
Samsung is crushing other Android OEMs, and Google has no other option but to
wait & watch it.
Now the final question comes, can Google make a way out to
keep it’s ultimate authority over Android. Or Samsung has proven its worth to
take part in Android’s core decision? Let’s see what Google does to keep
Android as its sole part…

HTC ‘FIRST’ Facebook phone is leaked before its presentation day. Facebook was to reveal this phone on 4th April with invitation ‘Come see our new home in Android’.
@eveleaks posted the image of this Facebook-centric smartphone
in its twitter account.
It also posted another picture of the alleged HTC ‘FIRST’ on
Weibo. There it shows that this phone may come in different colours.
Earlier speculation was that this phone may be named as HTC
‘MYST’. According to the available image, this phone may come in rectangular
shape, with curved borders, having 3 capacitive buttons in the front. The
screen may come in 4.3inch long with 720p display. This phone will be powered
by Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 processor along with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal
storage. However user may not have the benefit of external micro SD card
slot.
The phone will come with Android v4.1(Jelly-bean) along with
a layer of HTC Sense 4.5. The handset will also offer deep integration with
Facebook. HTC FIRST is also likely to come with 5 Mega-pixel Rear camera &
1.6Mega-pixel Front camera. From the spec available, it looks that this phone
not going to be a high-end device. There was no word regarding the price of
this device.
This is not the first time that HTC and Facebook teamed up
to introduce a Facebook-centric smartphone. Earlier in 2011, HTC ChaCha and HTC
Salsa were two more names. Where HTC ChaCha was priced around 16,000 INR, HTC
Salsa was a bit higher side-22,000 INR.
Lets wait if HTC & Facebook can provide us with a better
gadget this time around…
