Browsing The Web On Smartphones Maybe Bringing Your Battery Down
2012-05-03 07:55:00 The biggest problem with mobile phones is that their battery drains pretty freely. If you are a phone junkie then you know what we are talking about. There are very few phones which can last more than a day if you use all ‘sync’ features that modern smartphones come equipped with it. There exist quite a few apps which attempt to save your precious battery but even they are not enough. Important causes of battery drain are usage of apps, especially free apps which are ad supported. Source: blog.hubspot.com Now it seems these free apps and sync may not be the only source of energy drainage. New research from Stanford University has uncovered that just surfing websites on your mobile browser may be draining most of the energy. This is mainly due to poor and bloated code on which these websites are built. The research was undertaken by Narendran Thiagarajan and his colleagues at Stanford. It identifies popular websites like Wikipedia, IMDB and even Apple’s site are t...

Biggest Security Threat To Smartphones Found, Says CrowdStrike
2012-02-27 12:45:00 The Android OS has effectively found its way in the phones of almost all manufacturers’ devices, and has overtaken  Symbian, the previous leader in terms of volume. However, all is not peachy. It has been found numerous times that small bugs have plagued Android, such as the infamous SMS Bug, and Google has promptly rolled out fixes for the same. Now, we have word of another such potential threat. Security firm CrowdStrike, which will be speaking at security conference in San Francisco next week, and will demonstrate their findings in greater detail. According to them, a potential attacker can send an SMS or Email that appears to be from a trusted source, eg: Vodafone or their Bank or phone carrier.

Smartphones Are A Boon For Both Hotels And Travellers
2012-02-02 13:37:00 The humble mobile phone, which started out as an instrument to simply make and receive phone calls, has evolved into so much more. Its use cases have been so extensive that it is impossible for anyone to have predicted it. Mobile phones have already made redundant the calculator, the music player, the GPS Navigation System and have changed the way people work. With the boom of smartphones and mobile applications, cell phones may soon replace another person: the travel agent. In the words of Scott Durchslag, president, Expedia Worldwide, Travel is intrinsically a mobile experience. Hence mobile phones and hotel and travel bookings go together like bread and butter.  This is why consumers are using their cell phones to make hotel reservations and alter travel plans at an increased rate each year. A number of International Hotel chains have recognized the need and supplied Mobile Apps and Mobile Websites. In December last year, Marriott International launched free Android and iOS ...

150,000 Smartphones Attacked By Virus
2011-02-25 10:40:00 Guess what is bothering the 150,000 Chinese cell phone users nowadays: A Smartphone virus popularly known as ‘X Undercover’ that can remotely monitor the calls or text messages of the users. The virus takes advantage of the existing vulnerabilities of the Smartphones by targeting and activating the three-way calling services of these phones. The perpetrator can thus eavesdrop into the communication of the two parties without their knowledge. The virus can also be used to secretly video the phone’s owner, retrieve call and text records as well as pinpoint the user’s location with the phone’s GPS system. The virus, as such, has gained much traction amongst the Chinese wives who want to check up on their husbands and amongst the employers who want to keep an eye on their employees.

Smartphones today allow users to perform various activities right from checking their bank balances to booking flight tickets. However a report by the mobiles recycling company Envirofone revealed that in London 71% of the users just use them for making calls, texting and social networking, leaving most of the features untouched.

Smartphones And Tablets Will Overshadow Computers In 2012
2010-12-07 13:35:00 Market research major IDC predicted that smartphones and tablets are in things today and their shipments will overtake PC shipment in the next 18 months, i.e. precisely by June 2012. And that could literally mark the decrease in the usage of PCs. If a report from Ofcon is to be believed, the United Kingdom is slowly moving away from PCs and going towards mobile devices. However, this is all about development of a new market of smartphones and tablets and in no way it means that PCs would be shunned. They would still be a main part of computing. IDC also added that the total number of shipments of app-enabled devices such as smartphones and tablets all over the world would touch a 284 million mark. And the projected figures for 2011 and 2012 are 377 million and 462 million respectively. This figure would easily exceed that of PC shipments. For those who are uninitiated, one shipment equals one device. The company predicted the PC shipments to be about 356 million this year as well a...

Are Smartphones The Future of Mobile?
2010-08-25 06:45:00 Check out any new mobile that’s just out in the market. What are the chances that it lacks the ability to access Facebook? Close to zero. What are the chances that it doesn’t come equipped with a QWERTY keypad or a fancy Touchscreen? Again, very slim. Recently, WATBlog featured a post on the ePhone and the BlackCherry, two in the range of new “Smartphone” look-alikes (of course, they do also have almost the same features). And now we have Micromax and Lava sporting what was once associated with the Blackberry – a full fledged QWERTY keypad. Lava seems to have over enthusiastically superseded all expectations by introducing an ALPHA keypad (which I consider supremely moronic). Why the sudden madness? For one, the smartphone is no longer inaccessible to the common man. No longer is the smartphone a symbol of the MBA graduate or the CEO (in fact a news report in the Guardian talked aobut how teenagers were in love with their BlackBerrys. A study by consult...
