Different wireless carriers use different spectra to connect the users to their communications networks and the internet. However, due to cut-throat competition in the market, these carriers lock the network-issued devices to limit their functionalities only to their own networks. The lack of inter-operability on other carriers is becoming a growing concern of the users […]
This poses a threat for regional operators in the US. Every band, be it 700 MHz or 1900 MHz, is now a stronghold of one or two operators, whereas the smaller fish have to fight on the leftovers. Experts around the world have beseeched the operator to allow interoperability for users to roam on other […]
New York Attorney General Eric Schniederman filed a lawsuit against Sprint Nextel in New York for the allegedly unpaid sales taxes to the State and the city. The Attorney General followed the whistleblower lawsuit filed in March, 2012 against the cellphone carriers. According to Schniederman, Sprint failed to report the collection and payment of sales […]
“This complaint is without merit and Sprint categorically denies the complaint’s allegations,” the company said in a statement. “We have collected and paid over to New York every penny of sales taxes on mobile wireless services that we believe our customers owe under New York state law. “With this lawsuit, the Attorney General’s office is […]
With the release of the new iPad, 2012 version, Apple, Inc. has released an update to the iOS 5, the 5.1. The important thing is that it is compatible to every iOS device that could run iOS 4 or iOS 5. However, the new update has given iPhone 4S users a new problem to deal […]
In other words, the iPhone 4S offers a slight speed boost over the iPhone 4 and other 3G devices. But I wouldn’t say it’s significant enough to put it in the same class as devices operating on a 4G LTE network or even devices operating on the newest and fastest versions of HSPA+. But is […]
According to the ITU’s initial IMT-Advanced specification, for a technology to be considered “4G” it must deliver downlink speeds of 1Gbps when stationary and 100Mbps when mobile. So far no commercialized standard — whether it’s WiMax, LTE or HSPA+ — has even come close to reaching these aggressive specifications. However, with time, ITU showed flexibility […]
Nokia showcased its first 4G LTE smartphone, Nokia Lumia 900 at the Consumer Electronics Show 2012 in January. Now that the handset is out on store shelves for sale, I am obliged to present the first full review of the new smartphone from the Finnish company. At the first look, the Lumia 900 gives a […]
Having said that, Lumia pack a punch in its unibody structure that deliberately comes in some flashy colours like Magenta, for example. Its lightly sculpted chassis and deliberate use of coloUr scream “lifestyle product.” Bold as an exclamation mark, the Lumia 900 has pure pop-art coursing through its electrical veins. The chassis has a perfectly […]
In both brightness and richness, the Lumia 900 absolutely blows away the Focus S, which at the time I hailed as a beautiful Super AMOLED Plus screen in its own right. At the same levels of full and automatic brightness, the Lumia 900 shone about a full level brighter than the Focus S. Beyond the […]
Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth are standards, though sadly, the Lumia 900 ships with Bluetooth 2.1, practically antique compared with the new Bluetooth 4.0 standard we’re starting to see in mobile devices. Nokia boasts that its 8-megapixel camera on the Lumia 900 has Carl Zeiss optics, which, along with its dual-LED flash and autofocus, are meant […]
Compared to the snappers in iPhone 4S and Focus S, the picture quality is far better in terms of brightness and colour depth. The Super AMOLED display augments that in a nicer way. I was generally happy with video, which shoots at a rate of 30 frames per second, though I wish it shot in […]
