2012: Year In Review

Not long ago I did a year in review for 2011. Well, days fly. 2012 is coming to an end. It has been an interesting year in the tech world. Here I attempt (yeah, it’s just an attempt) to look back at the year in various categories. There’s a lot to write home about tech in 2012 but I’ll only narrow down to mobile tech. I’ll look at both at both the hardware and the software.

Under hardware I’ll look at the major players, the manufacturers and what they brought to the table in 2012, how they played out locally. That should form a sufficient background as to what we can expect in 2013.

Under software I’ll look at the various platforms and what they had to offer in 2012.

Feel free to agree and disagree. Divergent views and opinions are welcome. Where I’ve left out something or stated it wrongly, kindly point out.

HARDWARE (Device makers)

Samsung

LG

Sony

Nokia

Huawei, ZTE & Mi-Fone

HTC

Motorola, Apple & Others

SOFTWARE (The Platforms)
