Facebook Phone


Designed in partnership with HTC, this smartphone is a way for Mark Zuckerberg to imitate Amazon and Google to go from virtual to real Internet material goods with the desire to make money more easily. 

 If the rumor of the arrival of a Facebook Phone is true, it will investigate the reasons. Why Mark Zuckerberg is he temporarily abandon the Internet to invite an already saturated market rife heavyweights such as Apple, Samsung, HTC and Nokia?

 The answer is simple: money.The double-digit revenue stagnated Facebook, and Zuckerberg has decided to draw inspiration from both Apple (iPhone), Amazon (Kindle) and Google (Nexus) to advance to the next step.




With its 800 million members (and their contact information), Facebook has the potential to hit hard and directly affect its target with an Android smartphone with dedicated services. This would come in its strategy of creating an ecosystem that combines movie rentals, online payment, photo sharing, but also games and productivity.

 Finally, very recent example of Groupon with a rating in freefall shows that the Internet bubble can still explode, and the passage of material goods would help to guard against any sudden disinterest Facebook. Unfortunately, examples of Kin (Microsoft) or HTC or HTC Chacha Status (who had a Facebook button) showed that the transition is not simple.

LG OPTIMUS 3D " P 920 "






      Android on a segment monopolized by Samsung or HTC Galaxy S2 Sensation, LG has to stand out by offering the first 3D smartphone. So marketing pitch or good idea? Answers in this test the LG Optimus 3D. End of 2011, for the first time in the hexagon, it will sell more smartphones than conventional mobile. With a penetration rate that continues to climb, the smartphone market shows its excellent health and attracts the envy of manufacturers.

     Logical result, the segment is under siege from many references. It becomes more difficult to make a choice when we see the standardization of smartphones with similar hardware solutions and delivering more or less the same purposes. If manufacturers gargle of strong sales of Galaxy S, Galaxy S2 or iPhone 4, in the street one can only see this standardization. To try to differentiate themselves from competition, the LG Optimus 3D advance an argument, 3D. Problem when talking about the latter, the clichés such as "no content" return permanently.

     The Korean manufacturer is trying to find the parade by launching a draft ecosystem and the ability to design their own content with a sensor HD and 3D. Enough to win against the Galaxy S2? Getting Started If the last flagship of LG is known for the 3D design is a disarmingly agreed. Not necessarily ugly, not very original, the design of the Optimus is in the line of current smartphones, banal and functional. Caches to catch micro HDMI and micro USB on the side, the jack on top and a plastic case where the only aesthetic madness seems to be the front brushed metal.
