    ෴*On Earth*෴
    මමත් කාලයක් හිතන් හිටියේ ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් වලට කවදාවත් තියෙන් තැනට එන්න බැරිවේයි කියලා.අදටත් ඒක තරමක් ඇත්ත.

    වරදවා වටහාගන්න එපා.ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් කියන්නේ කමකට නැති mobile OS එකක් නෙමේ.මේ කෙටි කාලය තුල ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ්,iOS වලට වඩා පරිනාමය වෙලා තියෙනවා.අනික ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් වල customizations ගැන අයෙ කියන්න ඔනි නැහැ නේ.
    ඒත් ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් ගැන වැරදි නාමයක් පැතිරෙන්නේ lower end ෆොන්ස් නිසා.Nexus 7,S4,HTC One eke එහෙම ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් run වෙන විදිහයි සැම්සුන්ග් Y එකේ run වෙන විදිහයි අතර තියෙන්නේ අහසට පොලව වගේ වෙනසක්.
    මම නම් හිතන්නේ iOS වඩා ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් හොඳයි කියලා.ඒ functionality වත් UI එක ගැන වත් හිතලා නෙමේ.
    මොකෝ ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් තිබුනේ නැත්නම් smartphones කියන දේ මිනිස්සු අතර මේච්චර ප්‍රචලිත නොවෙන්න ඉඩ තිබුනා.Samsung,Sony android adopt කරගත්ත නිසා සමජයේ සෑම තරාතිරමක මනුස්සයෙකුටම බස් එකේ යන ගමන් ඇන්ග්‍රි බර්ඩ්ස් හරි ෆේස්බූක් යන්න හරි පුලුවන් උනා.
    මම නම් හිතන්නේ තාක්ශනයේ දොරටු සියල්ලන්ටම විවර කිරන්න මුල් පියවර ගත්තේ ඇන්ඩ්‍රොයිඩ් කියලා.
    ඇනික 4.4 එක සම්පුර්නයෙන් target කරන්නේ lower end smartphones .එකත් එක්ක මේ lower end-high end smartphones අතර තියෙන් gap එක ගොඩක් අඩු වෙන්න පුලුවන්.

    Another thing is Apple never use top notch over clocked CPUs or very large memory units for iPhone but they do the trick which is reducing unwanted RAM and CPU usage by not usning any home screen gadget launchers or background services to gain extra performance.. And the other thing is nobody can compare Apple's own hardware architecture with any Quad Core, Octa Core CPUs comes with those cheaply made Android devices such as Samsung Galaxy S4, because this proves Samsung's Octa core processor cannot compete with Apple's Dual core processor :P

    Screen-Shot-2013-09-26-at-12.46.47-640x333.jpg


    But these are the specs of iPhone 5:

    Display: LED-backlit IPS LCD, capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors, 640 x 1136 pixels, 4.0 inches (~326 ppi pixel density), Corning Gorilla Glass, oleo-phobic coating

    Memory: 16/32/64 GB storage, 1 GB RAM DDR3

    Data speed: DC-HSDPA, 42 Mbps; HSDPA, 21 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps, LTE, 100 Mbps; EV-DO Rev. A, up to 3.1 Mbps

    Camera: 8 MP, 3264x2448 pixels, autofocus, dual-LED (True Tone) flash, 1/3'' sensor size, 1.5 µm pixel size, simultaneous HD video and image recording, HDR

    OS: iOS 7, upgradable to iOS 7.0.3 (World's most advanced mobile OS yet!)

    Processor: Dual-core 1.3 GHz Cyclone (ARM v8-based)

    GPU: PowerVR G6430 (quad-core graphics)

    And these are Samsung Galaxy S4 specs:

    Display: Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors, 1080 x 1920 pixels, 5.0 inches (~441 ppi pixel density), Corning Gorilla Glass 3

    Memory: 16/32/64 GB storage, 2 GB RAM

    Data speed: HSDPA, 42.2 Mbps; HSUPA, 5.76 Mbps

    Camera: 13 MP, 4128 x 3096 pixels, autofocus, LED flash, Dual Shot, Simultaneous HD video

    OS: Android OS, v4.2.2 (Jelly Bean)

    Processor: Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A15 & quad-core 1.2 GHz Cortex-A7 (Octa core)

    GPU: PowerVR SGX 544MP3

    So who is using unwanted specs of hardware for just a mobile phone which we only use when we can't access to a computer?

    And nobody can ever forget that Apple bought us those amazing features like motion sensing, accelerometer supported games, full multi touch screens in 2007 before Google even releasing Android in 2008 Q4 :)

    Yes.. 1st thing which I love about iPhone is its user friendliness.. no hassle.. it only takes seconds to scroll through its home screens and find an App.. and most of those Apps perform very smoothly unlike most Android phones because Apple always use the perfectly matching hardware and its own hardware architecture to overcome incompatibilities with its software :)

    90. Disable background processes on startup without root.
    91. Batch modify/move/copy files from one directory to the other.
    92. Easily switch from one browser to another (flashify) without copying and pasting.
    93. Backup files locally with any version available not just the present and previous ones. Eg. I have 10 different versions of Google maps and I can roll back to any of them.
    94. Control lock screen when a bluetooth signature is detected. Eg. Pebble locker. Can also activate any profiles upon detection.
    95. Perform tasks depending on magnetic field strength. This is particularly effective to mimic an NFC feature. Eg. Open an app (car mode ultra) by reading and sticking a magnetic strip on a car mount.
    96. Make your own Siri. Autovoice + Tasker
    97 Run shell Scripts
    98. Use phone as external GPS for android tablet that doesn’t have a GPS.
    99. Extract apks so no need to re-download from the internet. Just are reinstall from a windows network share or SD card.

    :P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P

    Addendum (anticipatory computing):

    In the morning I have a card showing the time to get to work factoring in the traffic. At quitting time, I have another card for the trip home. It lets me know if I should leave earlier or try to find another route.

    When my plane lands, I am greeted with the currency exchange rate, nearby photo spots, places of interest, helpful phrases.

    If I search for a restaurant on the browser on my laptop or desktop, a card will show up on the phone to let me navigate there with one tap. No need to search for it again.

    It would send a text to the wife that I was on my way home when I left the geofenced area I set around the office.

    When connected to the home network, it would disable the device lock. This was before I got Pebble Watch.

    When connected to the Pebble watch, I never have to unlock my phone. If I get separated from my phone, it will lock itself.

    If the phone gets lost or stolen, I can control my phone from any browser and do things like take pictures of the thief. It will also take pictures when someone tries to unlock the phone and quietly send them to my email account.

    From the calendar it knows when I’m in a meeting and automatically mutes the phone for me.

    It knows when I’m at home, and if I plug it in the charger past a certain time, it will mute all notification sounds because I’m going to sleep.

    It watches for swipe gestures so I can launch any app (or perform phone functions) while I’m in any other app.

    When I plug in a headset, it gives me a selection of my favorite media apps. If I’m using my bluetooth headset, then it launches my preferred listening app when I hit the play button on the headset.

    Ever run into a video saying that it is not available in your country? I can fire up a VPN proxy on the phone and bypass that restriction.

    The phone can also listen for your voice and it can launch other apps.
