Iphone, Google Phone, Skype Phone, Now Facebook Phone?
Over the years there have been a lot of developments in the mobile phone world and especially over the past few years in particular. Many mobile phones now can not be described as a mobile phone but more of a personal computing device as they can browse the internet, chat online with friends and some can even act as a GPS device too.
A lot of brands have released their own dedicated mobile phones and shows just how widespread the effects of mobile devices are on our everyday lives. Computing company Apple released their touch screen only mobile phone two years ago and has grown in popularity with a portion of consumers being business users too.
Internet Search giant Google has recently released a phone with an operating system developed by them and has a lot of the popular services provided by Google such as their maps service, GMail email and Google Calendar as a part of the phone as opposed to being a third party application made for other phones.
Last year UK network 3 teamed up with the internet telephony service Skype to provide a phone that makes calls over the internet and has been popular enough for a second version to come out with a few alterations and improvements later in the year, the decision to base mobile phones around a web application seemed a bit risky for a mobile network who makes money off customer’s phone calls. Still, the phone has enjoyed some success because of the cheap price of the handset on contract or pay as you go.
The latest announcement from 3 is expected to be revealing a phone based around another web application, Facebook. Considering the popularity of the social networking site it isn’t a surprise that the next logical step for a company who made the Skype phone would look to this site as their next phone. It will likely include some typical stats like a MicroSD card slot, a camera around the 2 or 3.2 Mega Pixel mark and some dedicated features like Instant Messaging and being able to access yours and your friend’s profiles quickly.
This movement goes to show that many mobiles are evolving into specific devices that fulfil many other functions no matter how mundane or trivial they seem. The bonus for people in the market for these phones is that they are fairly cheap mobile phones yet still have an impressive list of statistics which is a great thing for people looking for a new mobile phone around this time of year.
