Opening New Windows 8 Phones
Unlike a few other
leading gadgets, Microsoft’s Windows 8
phones might be hitting Indian shores a lot faster following
their introduction in its primary Western markets.
Microsoft’s
big roll-out plan for its windows8 mobile devices is in motion. Though
hurricane sandy might have eclipsed a little bit of this big launch earlier
this week in the U.S , the tech giant seems to be pulling out all stops to get
noticed.
On October
30, just a day after the international launch, Microsoft India put out a
preview of the upcoming windows 8 phones at a special event in New Delhi before
a gathering of technology journalists and bloggers in the country. The devices
preview included the Nokia Lumia 820 and 920 , Samsung Ativ s and HTC’s WP8x
running the latest iteration of the windows operating system for mobile
devices. The Nokia Lumia 820 and 920 will probably reach Indian shores the
fastest. All the phones feature a dual core processer and have latest
technology such as Near Field Communications (NFC) in – built, and it safe to
guess thea most high-end. Windows 8 phones would cost upwards of Rs.30,000.
Phone
highlights
The windows
8 phones is not just a brand new phone from Microsoft . for the uninitiated, it
is also a brand new mobile technology and experience. Barring those who have tried the mango
phones(Windows 05 7.5 through 7.8), the
phone will be a bit of surprise in terms
of its user interface and experience. A word of caution : those who are
migrating from other platforms , may find that the window8 platform requires
some getting used to. In fact , the same applies to the desktop experience too.
The Windows 8 on desktops and laptops is world apart from what people have got
used to in terms of user interface ever since the original Windows 95.
Room
concept
Though there
are plenty of new features , there were a few that stood out. Windows 8 phones
introduces the ‘Room’ concept that allows the phone user to privately share
content like photos or maps within a closed loop of people . such ‘Rooms’ can
be used for both creating casual conversations
(say, within a weekend bikers’ group ) and office conversations, (say, when a
team of collaborators shares information about an office project).
