The evolution of phablets was a boon for Tech
lovers. Back in 2010, when Dell Streak (first 5 inch Android mobile) was
launched, I was completely thrilled by the concept. Smartphones have always
tried to replace computers and a 5 inch screen certainly enables achieving this
up to a great extent. Watching movies, editing documents, surfing through the
net and a hell lot of day-to-day tasks could be more comfortably performed on a
larger than usual mobile phone.
Dell Streak was not a successful device in terms of
sales, but the concept was appreciated, at least from the user point of view.
Experts justified the failure saying it an awful product, which is neither a
phone nor a tablet. Things changed after the launch of Samsung Galaxy Note. It
was now an innovative product for the same experts who called Dell Streak an
awful product, what an irony. I was lucky enough to become a proud owner to
Samsung Galaxy Note. Since then, my love for phablets has never seen a decline.
Here is a collection of 5 phablets I love. Some of them are which I have
already used and some are phablets I wish to buy in near future.
Large screen mobiles I have used:
Samsung Galaxy Note
Now you know it all started with Samsung Galaxy
Note. It was an excellent device, a result of great engineering. Neither the
screen size was new nor the stylus, but the way it delivered mobility was
excellent. The Super AMOLED screen simply allowed me to leave back my tablet
home. The S-pen was far smarter than any stylus ever created. It wasn’t perfect
but it was innovative. My two favorite activities, watching movies and surfing
web were a pleasure performing on Samsung Galaxy Note.
What I didn’t like about Samsung Galaxy Note was
its plastic body.
Micromax Canvas A100
By the mid of 2012 Indian market started getting
crowded with phablets from Indian manufacturers. But if you remember, the
bandwagon started with the Micromax Canvas A100. The mobile pundits called it
Poor Man’s Galaxy Note. This was the time I was looking for another mobile,
not to replace the Galaxy Note, but just to carry an extra number. I wanted to
settle with some mediocre handset, but my big screen madness compelled me to
buy another phablet. Thankfully it cost me one third of the first one. Comparing both the mobiles was far from
justification, but in my views Micromax Canvas A100 was a genuine attempt
to deliver that rich feeling in a budget.
Lava Iris 501
Lava Iris 501 is my latest love. I got rid of both
of the previous gadgets and tried to purchase Micromax Canvas 2 A110.
Unfortunately during its lifetime, Canvas 2 remained more out of the stock than
on sale. Lava Iris 501 one was offering similar specification, was in stock,
priced better and came with freebies. With time I found it a better deal than
the Canvas 2 as it played Asphalt 6 flawlessly which my friend’s Canvas 2
couldn’t. On the downside, I was unable to find accessories
for my IRIS 501. Cases and scratch guards were easily available for Canvas 2
but not for this.
Large screen mobiles I wish to use:
HTC Butterfly
HTC Butterfly is a powerful device. Quad core Krait
processor, 2GB Ram, 11GB inbuilt storage, what else you need? Though I will
miss the Super AMOLED here, but Super LCD3 isn’t bad too. HTC has focused more on performance of the device
rather than adding numbers in the specifications, which could be a bit
disappointing for some users. In a device costing almost thousand dollars, you
are getting a mere 8MP camera. Not a long list super cool features as Samsung
reveals with all its flagships. Beware; With HTC Butterfly you won’t feel wow if
you are not a gamer or tech freak. But if you are, this is the best gadget to
grab.
Samsung Galaxy S4
Just launched, SamsungGalaxy S4 will take some time hitting the stores. If I could wait for a
couple of months and refrain myself from grabbing an HTC Butterfly, Samsung
Galaxy S4 could definitely be my next flick.
Samsung Galaxy S4 is the first mobile with
Octo-core processor. It comes with a great camera and long list of cool
features, Eye scrolling and dual camera recording to name a few. Experts’
reviews are still awaited.
