Can Blackberry Stay Relevant in the Mobile World?
After taking a giant smartphone, RIM BlackBerry has dropped to the development of iPhone and Android supremacies. Now regarded as a more niche market, the BlackBerry remains focused on the business audience, while the masses flock to operating systems with more intuitive user interface and application market is exponentially larger. RIM has made a game yet this year, launching its first tablet - BlackBerry playbook - in an attempt to remain relevant in the emerging market of tablet
.
There are good and bad news for those who are interested in tablets. Starting with the good news, the board for the hardware drawn mostly positive reviews. His seven-inch screen, the QNX operating system (UNIX-based OS), dual cameras (rear-facing 5MP, 3MP front) and 1 GHz dual-core processors are nice osobine.Prednja camera located discreetly beneath the screen, a tablet takes clear, crisp images and video.
With Adobe Flash 10.1, tablet also displays video and flash depends on the media with ease. Originally launched as a tablet 3G, 4G version is expected to launch this fall. His house batteries from the series Galaxy tablets per hour, and unlike the iPad is capable of running multiple applications istovremeno.UI itself has intuitive gestures such as flicking unwanted applications vertically off the screen to shut them down, and sliding your finger from the blade to blade wake tablet mode.
Like most Blackberry phones, this is a great tool to interact with Microsoft Office products. PowerPoint presentation providing impeccably, and users can even create Word documents and Excel spreadsheets in the playbook. His BlackBerry Bridge feature allows users to synchronize real-time with BlackBerry phones and access to a separate suite of applications, including personal e-mail and calendar, reminder app, web browser and BlackBerry.
bad news for advocates of BlackBerry is that the playbook while it sounds great at first, there are plenty of flaws that will prevent the device from making a big impact on the market tableta.Most feature, highly touted by RIM, is not compatible with AT & T and features lots of bugs, especially the web browser often crashes or does not load first. Device battery life can trump the Android-powered tablet Galaxy, but it pales in comparison to even the first generation iPad, and especially the iPad 2, which is about three hours to fall short.
Most shocking, the playbook does not bring the original e-mail applications. These tablets are an inseparable part of the intended business customers simply because their brand would be lacking the basic functionality of astounding. Users must access email via a web browser or through links playbook BlackBerry Bridge. It is not only a diversion for non-BlackBerry users who are considering conversion, but the inconvenience to existing users BlackBerryja.Nedostatak prediction of this size is truly astounding.
From the hardware standpoint, a button has led to numerous complaints, as it is flush with the top of the device, and almost impossible to press without a nail or an external object. Simple problems like this could have, and should be avoided for RIM's first venture into the tablet world.
Perhaps the biggest tournament for tablet users a wide range of companies developing applications for tablet production intuitive applications for entertainment or more users of business and personal life, but the BlackBerry App World falls short leaps and bounds from the Android Market and Apple's App Store. There are plans to eventually allow the playbook to run Android applications, which will overcome some of the gap, but little can be done to stem the negative comparisons between the app store for BlackBerry and IOS.
All in all, the BlackBerry playbook for the solid hardware and a few minor flaws, but has no impact on the software applications and databases make a significant dent in the tablet world. This will be a tough fight for RIM to crawl back into the mobile sense, would do little playbook grease the wheels.
