In the first quarter of this year, Samsung outsold Nokia and became the worlds biggest phone producer.

Samsung sold 88 million phones in the first quarter compared to Nokia's 83 million.

Nokia have been struggling in the last time, specially in the smartphone area. One reason why Nokia is still a very big mobile phone producer is the low-end phone models that are still selling quite good. When we talk about who is the biggest producer, volume is obviously what matters. From Nokia's PR point of view losing the first place might be a issue but according to specialists the problems stays the same. In the other hand, Samsung is entering a even more successful era, let's see how long its going to last.

The competition about who rules the tablet markets is on.. 

In the results of oct-dec '11, Andoid-based tablets grew their marketshare with 12,3%, giving them a marketshare of 44,6%.

The IOS-based tablets (iPads) are still holding on to the lead but the difference continues to shrink.

The 200 dollar Kindle-Fire tablet with android operative system says to be one reason to the android success. It was sold in very significant amounts by amazon.com.

As we all know there is a huge difference between the prices of an iPad and a Android-based tablet. Everyone decides for themselves but in my opinion the iPad is worth the money. Especially if you have other Apple products such as an iPhone or an iMac, the iPad is a great match. The quality of the screen and the user friendliness makes the iPad a winner. What you can do with the iPad  is up to your imagination.

On the other hand, the android based tablets do their thing as well. You will most likely find the applications you need, plan your weeks, share your photos and music with the 300 dollar cheaper device, no doubt. It's more about how you feel the experience, how good you can depend on the device and the battery life. The connectivity and iCloud sharing in the new iPad is going to blow you mind.

The new iPad was launched by Apple just few moments ago. The iPad comes with a 9,7" Retina screen which is familiar from the iPhone 4. The processor is a quadcore A5X which is way faster than the previous one.

The new iPad is available in March, 16th for about 500$ (16 Gb Wlan-edition) 829$ (64 GB 4G-version)
