Here, the feature discusses few predictions for the upcoming year.

Recovery in global economy

It is assumed that the next year will see growth in global IT spending, job creation and hiring. The research firm, IDC forecasted 3.2% growth in IT spending, which will equal the 2008 levels to $1.5 trillion and emerging markets will have half of the projected growth.

Google Inc, the internet search giant has been planning for an all-out assault on the mobile-phone market via its own branded handset, which is called “Nexus One.” The new device will be one of the most advanced Smartphones present in the market with Android operating system and a large screen, and will directly challenge Apple’s iPhone supremacy in the sector.

Recently, the company has announced that the new phone has been distributed to employees to try out. It is reported that the handset would be sold via T-Mobile in US and unlocked version that can be capable of operating on any network, and will be available next month.

It is presumed that the device may steal the show from popular Android devices like the Motorola Droid, but can it stand tall against the Apple’s iPhone?

Specifications

According to sources, the new Nexus One will run Android 2.1 software and will be manufactured by HTC, exclusively for Google. It seems that the device is expected to feature onboard camera, Wi-Fi, GPRS, EDGE, 3G, Bluetooth, A-GPS (with Google Maps) and 3.5mm audio jack. Google has designed the entire user experience for the handset and it will be powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 1GHz processor.

Nexus One on T-Mobile?

According to latest report, Google has announced that it will sell two versions of its own branded cellphone viz. one with a service contract with T-Mobile USA after Verizon refusal and another will be sold online and unlocked. It seems that the new device will be available as soon as January 5.

Can it challenge Apple’s iPhone?

Google name: Various analysts predict that the new device from Google will challenge Apple’s iPhone dominance just like IBM mainframe versus the Macintosh tussle. The phone is yet to be launched but, people expect that Google’s official backing and design would certainly be welcomed with an instant fan base. Just like Apple, Google has also a huge base of trusted fans who would be the future buyers.

SIM unlocked: In contrast to Apple, the “Nexus One” will be available SIM unlocked, which means that users could insert a SIM card from their favorite wireless service vendor. However, it is reported that Google has joined hands with T-Mobile, to subsidize the prices for US consumers who agree to a service contract.

Price factor: It is expected that to challenge the supremacy of Apple’s offering via AT&T subsidies, Google will also adopt aggressive pricing. Also, it is reported that the search giant will combine its “Google Voice” feature in the phone, which will provide phone service with unlimited free calls.

Applications: However, in one area, Google has to work hard, which is the number of applications. Apple has made available well over 100,000 apps, whereas Android is far behind with 12,000 apps. It is true that the iPhone maker has mastered the apps market and recently updated iTunes to stay competitive.

Meanwhile, Google had acquired Admob Inc, a maker of technology that integrates ads into thousands of mobile phone apps for $750 million. The acquisition will certainly help the company to improve its weak front in future.

Discussion

Many analysts predict that the Nexus One will not support for Microsoft Outlook users, who had played a key role in BlackBerry’s enterprise and SMB success. Also, by adopting Android for its own Smartphone, Google can irritate other Android Partners. Meanwhile, it seems that the new handset will satisfy the needs of business users, and will be paired with various Google Apps and services.
