Facebook smart phones...

It seems that all mobile devices now support Facebook connections, ranging from eReaders, tablets, internet-enabled TVs and of course, the smart phones.

Facebook is big, I'm talking about really BIG.

Facebook is primary social networking connection of many. Though there are others, but almost everybody has heard of Facebook one way or another. Even if you yourself is not on Facebook, you can literally point out at least one person around you that uses the service. Some people were even able to reconnect with their long lost old friends through this service.

That is how powerful Facebook is.

Facebook will tag people's name
letting you know the name of that
chick last night was Pamela.
So having a device that is able to connect to Facebook spells a defining feature for many. Lately, the smart phone market has sprung a new breed called "Facebook smart phones." What does this really mean? It means that the smart phone will support Facebook natively, displaying news, friends updates, posting your photos and read social feeds without having to load up the actual Facebook application or website. Also, the Facebook smartphones has a "Facebook button." When you presse this button, it will take you straight to your Facebook page.

For many, the Facebook circle is their main hub of activities. Whether they are planning a trip or a simple party for the weekend, it all happens there. So having a mobile device that'll support Facebook functions literally means the world to them.

The first two smart phones introduced this year that are such devices are the HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa. Others manufacturers might still due to introduce their Facebook smart phones, but none has any announcements so far. So if you are looking to sell your old mobile phones to get some cash for this new line of smart phones, come to Brokensellphone.com.

Blackberry....

Times are getting tougher for a Blackberry user. Everywhere they look, an Apple users to the left and Android users to the right.

Blackberry used to be the King of smart phones.

No Love For Blackberry.
But that position has been surpassed by the newer, easier, and more affordable smart phones. Smart phones are no longer in the hands of business users only. With the introduction of the iPhone, Steve Job raised the bar for smartphones and made the general public demanding more from their cell phones. As the spot light move to shine on for the iOS and Android team, the curtain slowly draws to a close for the RIM team. As the LCD screen real-estate gets bigger and bigger, the need of a physical keyboard diminishes. What used to be considered as a must-have for the e-mail typing can now be done with a soft-keyboard on the screen.

For the users, the looks of a bigger, smoother screen is simply more pleasing to the eye than the clunking, bumpy keyboards. For the manufacturers, the presence of a physical keyboard places design limitations and adds complications to the smart phone manufacturing process. For the application developers, having set and marked physical keys means limited and restricted options for them.

So why are you still tapping away on that Blackberry Bold? Come to Brokensellphone.com and we will pay good money for Blackberry. Time to get with the trend, trade in that Blackberry for one of them new iPhone 6 or HTC Touch 2015.

To Be or Not to Be, that is the question!

The much anticipated September 2011 Apple iPhone 5 roll out is planned later than expected this year, where its predecessors were released in summer months of June.   This kept me wondering how long this déjà vu would remain interesting.  I understand all the fanfare and excitement in which the Apple marketing juggernaut can drum up for their followers, but would the magic still exist after like 5 more releases? I am not sure if iPhone 10 would be as wicked from the legendary first that made everything possible.  What is so different between iPhone 6 & 7? I cannot doubt the creativeness that Apple brings and the affect it has on everyday life. Apple’s motto demands the user experience to be unique and to express a sense of individualism compared anyone else through the use of their iconic products. Therefore, how can I feel that if I watched the same trailer every summer or when practically every Joe has one in their pockets?

Then again…. the ability of Apple or Jobs is un-matched since its karma is identical to Disney’s caliber associating with kids of several generations! We’ll just have to wait and see!

The Future of Smartphones.

The Man.
What will the future smartphone be like? I mean, its already doing many tasks that a home computer can do so far already. Playing games, movies and surf the internet just to name a few. They do however, have some specialized smartphones that can act as an projector and more. Just what other concepts will manufacturers come up next?

But given any educational guess, the next smartphone will probably be touch-screen(NUH, really?). Also, without any doubts, The Man over at Apple probably already have next model of iPhone lined up already in the labs. Apple pretty much has become the main direction in which the electronic gadget industry looks onto produce the next big hit. Just look at the past examples already, when the iPod is released, all other manufacturers rushes out to produce portable music players. When the iPad is released, all of a sudden, the market is flooded with tablet computers left and right.

Truth to be told, I hate to be giving anymore money to The Man. But you might find it is really well designed after using their product.

Death of Normal Cell Phones

You may already dropped your landline at home and your normal cell phone could be next on chopping block.

I miss the days when cell phones are just phones. They were easy and simple! The old Nokias never seems to crash and ALWAYS loved you with full 4 bars.

My current SmartPhone (HTC Nexus 1) requires more TLC than my dog!
Updating, re-booting, erasing and freeing memory are just some daily task required.
Not to mention the "FIT" it thorws when temperamental!
It will not ring you when someone calls or screen freezes when it decides to go on un-announced vacation! (reminds me of someone...!)

I do miss my old cell phone.....!
