Samsung Galaxy S3, the Android hero
Samsung took years of iPhone benefits and many months of Android industry leadership for a phone with Google's cell operating process to knock the iPhone off its stands. The Samsung Galaxy S3 won that respect. The GS3 is a really global phone, available on nearly every carrier, nearly everywhere. Its large, vibrant HD screen identifies a increasing class of phones with broader form factors, and its vulnerable balance of Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, a sharp8-megapixel camera, 4G LTE ofr HSPA+ support, and an available price make the Galaxy S3 a worldwide hero.
iPhone 5, the most anticipated:
The drumbeat of ambitious rumors in the lead-up to the iPhone 5 launch gave the mobile set a lot to live up to. Finally launched in September, nearly six years after the genuine iPhone, this is the iPhone we've been waiting for. The iPhone 5's expected 4G LTE, built-in turn-by-turn directions, and a tall, featherweight design make is a wonder marred only by subpar maps, which have improved steadily since the phone's produce.
Google Nexus 7, the superior mini tablet:
Certainly not the first 7-inch tablet on the industry, Google started the fray with the Nexus 7 in 2012 and left the battle behind, difficulties to differentiate themselves. The tablet's native, structured Android 4.2 OS---- versatile and open but friendly -- paired with vivid 1,280x800-picture elements- resolution display and $199 price make it the best mini tablet, period.
iPad Mini, the luxury latecomer:
The iPad Mini arrived so late to the mini-tablet battle that the competition had already left the entering blocks and rounded the bend. Playing catch-up to the Nexus 7, Kindle Fire HD, and Nook HD proved difficult for the Mini, especially with a lower-resolution display and significantly higher price than the other products.
