As we all know,
in recent times the emergence of smart phones with wireless Internet capabilities
have been a corner stone for easy use, e-business, and for those who want to do
their work while on the go today. Here we look at two major competitors in this
ever increasing sector: Blackberry and the iPhone. We will see the physical
aspects aswel as the applications within these two titans of the technology
industry.
Physical
Features:
Between the two, the Blackberry is seen as the
stronger and more durable of the two phones. The iPhone when it first came out
quickly established a fairly negative notoriety for being breakable when
dropped. Due to the delicate nature of the screen, a few drops on any surface
would eventually lead to a cracked screen, however, Apple have since made various
other products to deal with this problem including, hard cover cases, sleeves.
On the other hand the blackberry is known for its strong durability cover, many
people have dropped their Blackberry time after time and have come away with
little more than a few scratches here and there.
Software
Applications:
For me, having the right applications for the right
job is key, and with the Iphone it does just that, with the ability and the
know how to create their own applications, and with an endless amount of apps
available in the iPhone app store, there always is one will suit your need no
matter what the issue. The blackberry on the other hand has fairly limited
offers and has been described as “The Blackberry App Store is like a
pawn shop that only sells used 8-track players” (http://www.wired.com/geekdad/2009/08/great-geek-debates-iphone-vs-blackberry/)
In the end, the choice of which smart phone is the
better, is up to you.
