Battle of the Phones

Ok so today in the morning to be precise midnight i called my ex (yes i have been quoted saying "telling your ex to keep in touch is some what like kidnappers to keep in touch") but i also have my flaws and I say hi once in a while though this was a little of the peak so i got a topic......yaaaay (ok i gotta stop doing that)

My ex and my workmate*read mentor always have this question Which Smart Phone Should I Get?.... and i start with this sentence....A Smart Phone... well call me arrogant but (I actually am) see many people tend to have the idiotic sorry moronic(no that's not in the dictionary) idea that qwerty based phones are smartphones *EHHH insert error/beep sound here no not all qwerty phones are smartphones now i wont be naming all smartphones that's not my job Google can do a pretty good job if you know your way around, but i will be telling a little about what you need to know about smartphones and what they can do for you and what you need to consider while purchasing them.

So back to my ex she kinda wanted to know which to choose.... while its not that women really want a mans opinion they just prefer having to hear their opinion in a deep voice...ahem moving on so smartphones:
phones which are smart...well that was easy.... nice ok moving on (yes that's it am not going to start using a lot of techie information language now)... now to be smart you need to have some qualities such as:
RAM,Processor,ROM and an Operating System.... now this might seem like weird terms to a non*techie person*read stone age (basically everyone knows what this is but for the sake of homo sapiens sapiens here goes nothing RAM Random Access Memory-this  can be called your working memory its there to run apps(programs and Operating System) Processor-brain yes this is the brain ROM Read Only Memory--- consider your character nearly the same not impossible to replace it but probably hard to change some aspect of it and OS Operating System ----this is the heart of the computer controls the hardware to give of the nice interactiveness to the Smart Phone/Tablet.

Moving on the main categorization in smart phones is not probably the make ....though there are deeper sentiments shared and disagreed here.... but the main agenda is the Operating System :
Android-----BlackBerry OS------iOS------Symbian/Belle OS-------Windows

Don't get me wrong this are not all of them but the main playing field is centered around this 5 giants handling companies like Samsung, BlackBerry, Apple,Nokia and LG so lets Review one by one

Android
In Kenya android is taking over like wild fire popularized by the Huawei Ideos smart phone that handles this OS .... now not many people even know what it is/rather even what it does...but this is what you get
note i am evening out the hardware content
Performance------around 8.4
Media------------around 7.2
Security--------around 6.8(though some people would rather say it differently but this is for an non techie user)
Communication---around 7.2(for network efficiency but its a data guzzler)  
Apps and Games-around 6.7(going up while we blogging)             

BlackBerry OS
A falling giant but a giant while at it has the business persona with it (i have one for now) and pulls a lot of good impression of maturity and seriousness ...so here's what you get for also this playing field is also leveled
Performance------around 6.4
Media------------around 7.4 has audio boost(i know small feature but for a regular user)  
Security--------around 9.2 (for anyone who uses email)
Communication-----around 8(due to its limited connectivity u must have something called a service plan to enjoy the full benefits---not cheap)
Apps and Games-around 4(not very friendly this one)

iOS
By far the one with the bigger slice of the cake....it suits just about everybody from gaming fanatics, textaholics, social buzzers and best the business persona...again even field
Performance------around 8.8
Media------------around 8.4 has (iTunes for management which tends to be sometimes a drag for drag and drop users)  
Security--------around 8.2
Communication-----around 8.6(doesn't have very many issues compared to other smartphones)
Apps and Games-around 9(very friendly this one also has a lot of them coming to around 800k)
  
Symbian/Belle OS
ok by far all the top reviews kind of deal with the same sort of kernel look alike (except the blackberry) well Symbian is Nokia owned and not to be a critic to Nokia God knows Africa loves ya but ....OK here's a review
Performance------around 6.8
Media------------around 6.4
Security--------around 6.2
Communication-----around 8.6(doesn't have very many issues compared to other smartphones)

Apps and Games-around 5.6(not many apps, no creativity here nope not for me plus the real downer its there very few apps for Symbian)


Windows Mobile
well expect a lot from the advertisement from windows new 7.5 operating system but windows have been known to be susceptible for viruses and blotted coding hence very slow operations but with a recent brush of a HTC HD running windows mobile 7 .....nope i change my mind ah uh nice classy smooth but still....
Performance------around 6.8
Media------------around 7.4 has support for DivX in most phones which is quite handy for movie lovers ...nice ,surround system also.
Security--------around 5.2
Communication-----around 7.6(doesn't have very many issues compared to other smartphones)

Apps and Games-around 5.4

well here's a little of what i think comment criticize (i dare you) and also tell us your experience ow please mention what phone you reviewed

Hello good people .... ok before we get on to the review i have to say ..... ok clearly i have nothing to say so here goes the review

SHERLOCK: (The Series)
uhhhh yes there is one...no need to open another tab to Google it :) , now here's what happens when you get a series from the UK
ahhhh yes  again it is British after all the original writer Sir Aurthur Conan Doyle is the inventor* of said Sherlock both the adventure and
character..... back to business so British focused acting .... my opinion* it has always been slow, round and the edges very blunt.....
i know i know someone is screaming ... you clearly haven't watched Strike Back ehhhhhh Wrong..... later i will review that... but i adore British acting to bring out the full length story without the (our American rush) insist on our America ....Mitchel's husband is Kenyan....oww bite me... ok seriously the review....

We all know sherlock, Witty,Smart,Briliant,Disguised,Dangerously Rude(not really in the movie) oww yes in the movie very Arrogant(iron Mans gene pool got pulled to that side by Downey jr.) now yes so we bassically have him on a series yaaay ....(i am not explaining Sherlock since its not new to anyone and the plot hardly changes (not hardly) in the Series also....

What to expect... how he and Watson met ,how he and his analysis always work at the end ...and probably you are going to catch a cold *read heart  he most certainly has.....and most of all have the ultimate fun as every bit is twisted leaving room for expectations that ultimately fail don't get me wrong they did not screw up a thing ....check it out

Rating: 7.8/10
Audio: *my copy that is 5/10
Video: *yes my copy 9.2 /10 what i had the HD version

Pro:
Read ---It takes a whole 1hr 28min per episode for the 2 season (3rd not yet out but in production) and its 3 episodes per season yes not thirty or thirteen to get a fully developed , not rushed concept giving out the best of this series per episode
Well set,nice use of Dialog, Camera capture and scenes, Props (don't expect his disguises though)
Timely nice endings (always a twist---nothing to fancy that the story/plot is lost)

Cons:
He is a God-Complexed egomaniac---i hate that coz i might*read might be one
Moria-ti* yes from the movie is here 

Verdict:
Totally Worth it!

Hey there,

So i have this habit of testing out  a lot of stuff  you have most of them i don't own (ask me why...I guess because i am always a spoilt for choice type of guy....no that's not it) moving on ,I created this blog solely for the purpose that it has the above name Review, well while not every one is up to getting opinions forced down their throats its beautiful to also have a side thought of others and what they probably feel about "things" .

Well then lets get the ball rolling and you can probably get more info about a product, an item, a movie, an album, a friend (yah right)
