Why windows phone still not a wise choice

Windows phones has been launched in india years back by videocon and others but it wasnt untill nokia took it to the masses.  Nokia lagged somewhere behind while samsung went ahead. Lumia series pushed Nokia sales leaving behind other, this.is.where Nokia took windows operaing system seriously enough when it got popular and started switching its symbian to Windows. Results were in favour of finnish giant, moved by which Nokia started switching to windows platform.
But the initial tide dies soon. So would Lumia series when something intimating comes up on the horizon. Weather it is android or windows it do not matter but all that matter is the ease of use and value for money. Coming back to the point why windows stills lags behind inspite of windows 8.look is lack of download option from desired source, Window phone dont allow that, and hunger for free and pirated content in India cannot be set off by.providing just smooth browsing and mostly controlled download from Windows store only. Nor the youth would admire the method download via pc method, I.e the delay and hassle.of connecting it to laptop via zune which diminish the smartphone value as compared to android.
Beside inspite in pc world where windows phone has the largest popularity followed by lunix, here infact it is android which is ahead in the game. Thanks to Samsung who had brought smartphone ahead off featured phone. So the developers off apps are with leaders for money and populerity reason both.
Untill this two things improves things wont be in favour of windows phone long.

Now Galaxy S4 in the Budget class

mobile inspiration
True, if you are after a phone similar to s4 you can get you dream with a few limitation at your end.(image credit Samung)

android jelly beanWell we can say Samsung is steadily increasing the number of Galaxy lineup on the Market. Recently it has found a prototype of galaxy s4 for the budget class, The current Galaxy is equieped with a larger touchscreen of 4.1 oh the people may not be happy with that when they are expecting a 5 inch or more specially when brands like karbon and micromax are flushing their products with 5 inch smartphones at a affordable price of under 5k. So people looking for a change in touch screen may find the other end more attractive. However one should keep in mind that the quality of those smartphone are always in question particularly when lot of development work which makes the whole process more expensive may have same impact weather you mind or not. A small example have you seen any micromax or karbon mobile show their radiation rating on their great selling phones, I never seen any so far, but when you go to Nokia or Samsung they exist because they care or atleast the regulation make them care. So what do you expect from a manufacture who do not give the damn about the user health point of view. Another point some of you may have noticed a pain in chest slight that is when you keep the cellphone in your pocket, yes, this is higher when you are dealing with a cheap phone, so keep all this in mind, price has another side of the story too,
Any way coming back to the point the Galaxy Neo is equipped with  latest Android 4.1 Jelly Beans that is, it is also equipped with 1.2 Ghz speed processor and 1Gb Ram. There is lots of room left for storing apps and games on board without an microsd card. That is a 2Gb storage for you and a support for another 32 Gb
SO what do you think guys does this phone worth a go with a Brand name of samsung, or should we stick to local made in india or china models like Micromax and Karbon to name a few.....

Ten reason to avoid Tablets at all

mobile inspiration

Why tablet is not a good idea
First of what as a user you are looking in the tablet in terms of computing and protablity is practically not exit, for understanding this you need understand what you are getting into
Secondly tablets comes in three varieties which is plain without cell connection and only with Wifi
or 2g or 2g and 3g both if you go a little higher with the budget you may get some additional features
In the shopkeeper terms they call it calling or without calling feature Price is without calling starts from 3000 to 5000
while with calling features they are above 6000 2g or 3g features would fetch another 2 to 3000 with the current price tags
So practically you are getting a 7 inch screen with a additional calling features.
Not a computer
If you mistake tablet as a computer or even computer you are wrong. Ist of all the device do not support Huge RAM nor it has heavy harddisk capacity. For browsing WWW which never was made for mobile Ist place, though now those Wap site changed some thing, but frankly the enjoyment is only with the full fledged webpages do not exist on a wap site, not in my point of view. Portability alway cut downs facilities which otherwise you would have enjoyed.
lack of cooling microproccessor unlike pc or laptop you cannot cool your processor,which means it can shut down the whole system when the gadget gets really hot
lack of battery replacement, some tablet cannot be separated from battery that means you have to change the handset when the tab goes down. Futher if the manufactures is new and stops producing sets you wont find the replacements.
Populer brands do better in terms of sale and replacement.but the brand name cost you large chunk of money due the funding they give for provinding the service centre for you
You cannot keep the damn thing your pocket its too large you have to carry a bag for that so there goes the portablitly down the drain for which the tablet stands.
Too expensive for the features you could get better notebook with better capacity and power with the same price if you are purchasing a branded tablets
The power of calling comes at the price of a mobile phone. Now days you get mobile phone just considering you call around Rs 1500 with mp3 and all that basic features. so why pay the tablet for the features, after all the calling would reduce the battery life of the component.
I went to purchase one at least you call that windows shopping the cheapest tablet with 2g 3g calling was karbon and lava etab WHile the Micromax has 7000 or up and Hcl at 10000. My my what is all thsoe price for I am not after a computer forget those chinese brands,Now every body know those tablet is print of china. You may argue so is branded one. yes but they have quality when you stick to the higher price bracket.

Why gaming console is better then pc

Spending a lot of money onto building a gaming pc youAr ultimate  ultrabook to make it a high end ksgaming machine may be tempting, but how reasonable is doing that is what is considered here.

Maintainance

Generally maintainance cost of pc or laptop is higher then a gaming console. Example the dvd lense weirs out faster then a typical gaming device drive, even if you use hddrive the life span does extend but do not make it super long, and believe a average playatation normally gives up its lense in say two years or more depending how hardcore gamers, you are. But on pc it is much lower,dont forget the cost here
controls
Gaming depends a lot on ease of controls ,playing with keyboard and mice may not be a good idea when you need quick response perticularly if you are playing with game titles like Resident evil or need for speed. Consider playing mortal combat with a keyword..see what I mean. I have mentioned only three here there are plenty when you get in deep.
Yes there are usb controllers but I have seen lack of function  and response in those.
Fine tuning
A gaming console comes fine tuned for gaming needs and games designed for the console takes out its potentials of.console. Though not all games are same but some do make difference. In short you dont.have to worry about  upgrading hardwares to meet the gaming titles need.
In pc world you have to be pro to fine tune your hardware or even upgrade it. Thats why so many books written for average users are selling like hot cakes. But in reality how many of you even if you own the books actually mess up with real hardwares,huh...... 1/20
Price
A everyday computer would cost lot less then a gaming by less then half. Further computers keep changing every year, better processor,great graphic cards,high capacity faster hard drive, better controllers and display units, the list keep going you upgrade one another you really need a deep pocket to keep up with the trend. Whereas gaming comsole has a shelf life of 4 to 5 yrs. So no need to worry about upgrading. By the time next console hits the shelf chances are you wont have the time to play. The teen ager have grown up then got it. .
The pc advantage
Dont take me wrong owning a gamiing has it advatage not considering the above mentioned factors.
Flexibility to choose between gamimg and pc work. So even you grow up you still.keep in touch with games and daily works. Portable,
Gaming titles on pc are cheaper as compared to console. You may inspired to be game designer start right off.with the same pc without spending a dime on hardware.


Do I miss something have a great idea share with me speak your I love to hear from you.

Need for speed Carbon 2


Need for speed carbon
Nfs carbon is certainly a twist in the way you play the game. It keeps both old and new style together. If you have played the Need for speed underground one and 2nd part you would know what I mean.
Need for speed carbon is built on story line of revenge and takeover just like Need for speed most wanted, the difference is you don't have a hit list or certain task like Need for speed most wanted to take on the next rival.
In Nfs Carbon which is solely based on Night time playing environment, where I miss the usual city environment in background which I saw in Nfs Underground 2. Nfs carbon focuses more on core racing rather then being some thing else, so there is no flashing magazine races here.
Instead Areas are divided in territory, where you have go and play different race type, once you have taken over enough races you attract boss attraction and a call from him.
 I really appreciate removal of drag racing here, I am not good at that, Any way the races are sprint,time based like tool booth,usual circuits, knockdowns. Each races have their unlocks. the funpart is if your crew who is also a AI wins the race you are going to win, this ain't gone a work on Boss races, you are on your one with your best car to beat the Boss after the usual cutscene. The hate part is Boss races is build up with a couple of races usually 2 to 4 if you loose any you loose it all and the money which is as high as 50000. No continue so get your best car and best upgrades on before getting those guys. In knock out race or the time trial you also won't find your crew helping you out.
For normal races you can use your crew car and upgrade it to full capacity with your recent unlocks and let him win. Its easy win. Plus you have advantage of adding a crew member to your crew list. There is a limitation of how many you can employ though normally, you know what I mean.
What type of car do you need to win ? frankly I would suggest the tuner, or the muscle section they deliver the best on both world. Exotic is a type where you need a little better driving skills then usuals.
Each territory has cops and heat level which when goes up attract cops, cops  are more attracted to you then other players in the game so watch out. cop chase get worse when you are at 4 or 5 star rating. Cops have good cars chevolate,Sumo, Choppers, No motorcyle though, see they are smart ass can't be easily fooled. They sniff out the hideout too.. I disable their cars and hide behind works sometime. just void cop chase on speedways, bypass etc, take quick turn and hide method while keeping an eye on the maps to see nearby encounter, pursuit breakers and hideouts. In hideout your cooldown speed goes down faster. I even use petrol pumps off road directly to hide myself. Best strategy is to avoid chase by changing the paint vinyl etc from time to time to keep the heat down to minimum. Better safe then sorry. Oh turn off the auto save option I dont like it don't work on races won in boss races nor it save the money you have won, So what is the use anyway. But it do save when cops gets you, penalty etc. So keep it off. In game music is just an ininvited music which keeps you distracted I would suggest playing your own ipod instead of listening to the game music.
