okay. I will admit i like where google is heading but also don’t like it. google is a double edge sword which consumers need to fully and completely become aware how powerful they can become in terms of the information world.
And i do realize that i really don’t keep up with my postings… why? cause i am a lunatic at my job. I love it but also it loves me… too much.
CMF! CMF! what the heck? in the little bit of the video i was utterly annoyed to say that CMF is everything to the phone – color, material, finish.
I will say that HTC did give this phone correctly, in terms of the material and finish. The color? well it is interesting. In the daylight it is purple and the indoor it is tan-brown. I do agree that it is very natural like a ROCK! literally the phone is a river rock. I will agree there are tons of colorful rocks out there.
finish – yes the finish is wonderful but what else is new? it does not surprise me that finish is a matte, softtouch feel, just like the HTC eris…
So back to CMF! nothing is new and saying that cmf is very important, that is an underline statement because like the video says people want a bigger screen. UX design is highly important and it is not stated in the video, so in my opinion they realize their android software does not fit with the user’s experience.
I will agree, in terms of user experience i prefer the motorola blur or the HTC modify software versions.
Will google allow the different companies to modify and customize experiences of their android? I doubt it.
Is that the direction of smartphone? yes.
Will it overcome the apple iphone? doubt it.
Why? cause the market is still too unpredictable, since the android software changes like every 6 months. Think about, why would LG, samsung, htc, motorola, or sony erisson want to waste time after time making customized software bundles with android and then having to redo it for newer versions? that does not help with profits. It is very funny. catch-22!
