Apple iPhone OS and Android are a challenge

RIM will reduce staff. But Nokia has to suffer most from the pressure of ever cheaper Android. In the quarter April to June, sales of smart phones including Samsung have been estimated as 18 and 21 million units, compared with 16.7 million and 20.3 million Nokia iPhone. The proliferation of Android smart phones like the Samsung does not seem to worry Galaxy smaller suppliers such as HP or Apple, but it is certainly a threat at this time fatal to RIM and Nokia in particular, time is the market leader, with sales now derives mainly from mobile phones to medium low and affordable price outside the mature markets. Precisely in this band is focusing on the offensive end of the new Android low cost. Nokia has turned the tables and to some extent abandoning Symbian Phone for Windows, but until you update to Windows Phone 7.5, the difficulties seem to be doubled. Nokia has reported a net sales decline of 7 percent with a decline in operating margin of 41 percent. Stephen Elop, CEO of Nokia, accompanying the results of his company wrote: “The challenges we face during our strategic transformation of the expected larger occurred in the second quarter of 2011.” According to Nokia Elop resources are even more focused on sales, marketing and potential sales channel. In the last month Elop has shown a prototype model of smart phones like the N9, now equipped with Meego, who went on board Windows Phone. But at this point will need a few innovative smart phones too much time to change the course of the current market.

Samsung holding an event for the next Galaxy phone on May 3

Samsung has finally started sending out the official invites for the event in London on May 3 for the next Galaxy handset.

The invite doesn't say much but it's highly likely that it will be about the Galaxy S III (or whatever Samsung decides to call it). It's clear from the invite that Samsung is talking about only one device here, which makes us all the more certain that it is just the Galaxy S III that Samsung will announce. As far as the puddles of liquid seen in the invite, it could be nothing more than something used to fill up the invite image or something as exciting as an indicator for the device having a Liquidmetal body.

Samsung has taken its own sweet time with this device, even choosing to play it low at the popular Mobile World Congress this year, which is when companies make major announcements. Hopefully, this phone will live up to everyone's expectations.

Huawei has announced its’ acquisition of the Centre for Integrated Photonics Ltd (CIP), which had close relations, the East of England Development Agency (EEDA). The CIP, based in Ipswich, will be managed directly by Huawei and will form the heart of research and development in the United Kingdom, a key pawn on the chessboard of centers of competence in the World Huawei.

The CIP is a particular focus on research and development of new optical solutions, focusing on the company’s commitment in the study of next-generation solutions. Huawei has invested steadily in Britain over the last ten years.
