Manufacturers,

Prior to 2010, Nokia was the market leader. However, during that year competition emerged in the Asia Pacific region with brands such as Micromax, Nexian, and i-Mobile and chipped away at Nokia's market share. Android powered smartphones also gained momentum across the region at the expense of Nokia. In India, their market share also dropped significantly to around 31 percent from 56 percent in the same period. Their share was displaced by Chinese and Indian vendors of low-end mobile phones.

In 2010 worldwide sales were 1.6 billion units, an increase of 31.8 percent from 2009. The top five manufacturers by market share were Nokia followed by Samsung, LG Electronics, ZTE and Apple. The last three replaced RIM, Sony Ericsson and Motorola who were previously among the top five list.[19][20] Outside the top five a significant market share increase from 16.5 percent to 30.6 percent was achieved by many smaller and new brands.

In Q1 2011, Apple surpassed Nokia as the world's biggest handset vendor by revenue, as Nokia's market share dropped to 29 percent in Q1 2011, the lowest level since the late 1990s. In June 2011, Nokia announced lower expectations for sales and margin due to global competition in both low-and-high end markets.[21] By Q2 2011, worldwide sales grew 16.5 percent to 428.7 million units.

Other manufacturers outside the top five are Research In Motion Ltd. (RIM), HTC Corporation, Motorola, Huawei, Sony Ericsson. Smaller players include Audiovox (now UTStarcom), BenQ-Siemens, CECT, Fujitsu, Kyocera, Mitsubishi Electric, NEC, Panasonic, Palm, Pantech Wireless Inc., Philips, Qualcomm Inc., Sagem, Sanyo, Sharp, Sierra Wireless, Just5, SK Teletech, T&A Alcatel, Trium, Toshiba, and Vidalco.

iPhone 4S Latest version 3G Features Applications

The new iPhone 4S is one of the very best phones for social networking thanks to some excellent connectivity options and the new integration of Twitter into the operating system. To date Facebook and Twitter have dominated the social networking market but there is a newcomer in the form of Google+. With the power of Google behind it this platform may well become popular over the coming months so we take a quick look at the iPhone 4S application and see what it has to offer.

Google+ is an attractive looking platform that benefits from offering a much more simple layout than the likes of Twitter and Facebook. When you load the application for the first time you are presented with a well designed homescreen that offers you five different options. The first of these options is the Stream feature which gives you a timeline of updates from all of the people that you follow. These updates can be filtered so that you can also display updates posted from a location near to you. The second option on the homescreen is the Messenger facility which gives you access to the instant chat facilities. This feature allows you to message friends for free and you also can send picture messages by clicking on the camera tab at the bottom of the screen. When you perform this action you can either choose a photo that you have previously taken or launch the camera feature to take a new photograph.
