According to EWeek, with the release of Windows Phone 7 series Operating System by Microsoft, the competition in the smartphone field has become increasingly fierce. This week, the EWeek website wrote a list of ten aspects that Google's Android OS should learn from iPhone and wphone:
1. Google brand = real Google Products
Nexusone is the first attempt of the hardware market by Internet giant Google. Despite Google's leading position in software services, nexusone is still very young and commissioned by Google to produce HTC. Google must make every effort to make nexusone a dominant market.
2. multi-touch
In recent years, a major selling point of IT products, including Windows 7, has been the "multi-touch" function. Unfortunately, Android OS does not support multi-touch.
Google makes a commitment to add the touch function to the second-generation Android core application, but it does not promote it to all Android-based mobile devices, depending on the market solution developed by the OEM.
3. Convenient Online Shopping
An important factor in Apple's iPhone's favor for users is its successful itune store. Users can buy music, power, and games at will. Google has also established Android app sales platforms such as Amazon MP3, but it is far from doing enough.
4. Android online store
In addition to jointly developing online app stores with partners, Google should also consider establishing an authoritative app download platform similar to iTunes to provide convenient and inexpensive services for Android users. Otherwise, no iPhone or wphone users are willing to give up their familiar mobile phones to try Google products.
5. Better operation strategies
Apple and Microsoft have always had excellent marketing strategies, and their products have become the focus of attention in the industry, regardless of their performance. However, Google still regards itself as a software company and does not care much about its hardware investment. It has inadvertently raised the gap with other competitors.
6. More nexusone mobile phones
The first month of nexusone's mobile phone sales performance was only 1/20 of that of the iPhone. In the future, Google promises more mobile products similar to nexusone that have not yet been fulfilled, leaving more and more space for nexusone.
7. User Interface
Assuming that Google should learn some inspiration from Microsoft wphone 7, it is undoubtedly a brand new and unique user interface of wphone 7, which completely changes the style of the old version of the system and gives a different feeling.
8. Virtual Keyboard
The biggest headache for Android users is the virtual keyboard function, which is often complained that the interaction of the virtual keyboard is not ideal. This disadvantage has become a factor in measuring whether to buy Android phones.
9. faster browsing experience
The iPhone Safari browser can load pages very smoothly, and users can almost enjoy the same experience as the desktop computer. Google should make some effort in this area in the future.
10. Bluetooth voice dialing
People cannot imagine why Android does not support the Bluetooth voice dialing function. Many modern smart phones support this function, especially among enterprise users. This is worthy of Android's reference.
