A full-scale and specific comparison of smartphones between Nokia Lumia 900 and HTC Titan ll

Yesterday, I wrote a post about HTC One S vs. Apple iPhone 4S, which made a comparison between HTC One S and Apple iPhone 4S in several aspects, including camera, display, interface, multimedia, internet connectivity, price, etc. And today, the comparison between Nokia Lumia 900 and HTC Titan ll will focus on the following aspects: display, camera, processor, OS, storage, internet connectivity, multimedia, and price. Both Windows phones come with fast mobile data support (4G network connectivity supported), big screen display (4.3 inches for Nokia Lumia 900 while 4.7 inches for HTC Titan ll), fast processor (1400MHz in Lumia 900 and 1500MHz in HTC Titan ll), and high-resolution cameras for image and video shooting (8MP and 16MP respectively for Lumia 900 and Titan ll). These features seem to make the HTC Titan ll looks a little greater than Nokia Lumia 900. Is it really so? Still too early to decide which one is better. And what’s more, if you want to get one from these two smartphones, you need to choose the one that suit you more, rather than the one looks like better, right? Well, let’s just start the comparison to see which one might be your choice.

Display: Both smartphones own good performance in display for mobile phone visual entertainment with their large screen display and high screen resolution. The Nokia Lumia 900 has a 4.3-inch Clear Black AMOLED vivid screen display with 480 x 800 pixels of resolution and is backed by strong, scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass. While the HTC Titan ll comes with an even larger 4.7-inch Super LCD display with 480 x 800 pixels screen resolution. If you want to watch HD movies on smartphones, both of them could fulfill your needs with excellent visual effect.

Camera: The Nokia Lumia 900 completes its 8MP camera with a Carl Zeiss lens at 3264 x 2448 pixels of resolution including features like autofocus, geo-tagging, dual LED flash and 720p video capture. While on the other hand, the HTC Titan ll provides an impressively 16-megapixel primary camera with a wide-angle lens, backside-illuminated sensor at 4640 x 3480 pixels of resolution. If only from the camera pixels, the 16MP camera on HTC Titan ll seems to be better than the 8MP camera on Nokia Lumia 900. But in a surprising twist, the Nokia Lumia 900’s 720p video recording is found to be a bit more pleasing to the eye than its rival.

Processor: Both phones are featured with Qualcomm Scorpion processor and run at 512M RAM. The difference lies in that Nokia Lumia 900 runs a 1.4GHz processor while the HTC Titan ll features a 1.5GHz one. They both use the MSM8255T Snapdragon chipset, along with the same Adreno 205 graphics processing unit (GPU).

OS: As for the operating system, there’s little difference between these two phones, both of which run the Windows Phone 7.5 Mango.

Storage: Both smartphones comes with a 16GB internal memory storage with no microSD card support for external memory expansion.

Internet connectivity: Both the smartphones sport an 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi connection and have 2.1+A2DP Bluetooth, the Focus S has 3.0+A2DP, EDR Bluetooth.

Multimedia: Aside from the size disparity, there’s nothing different with the video watching experience. More than able to play the same videos, it’s really a tossup as to which one is the more pleasing to use for watching videos. The spaciousness of the HTC Titan II is highly appreciated, but the Nokia Lumia 900 has the iridescent color production to capture our attention.

Battery: Battery life plays an important role in deciding which one to choose. The HTC Titan II has a standard Li-lon 1730 mAh battery. Compared to this, the Nokia Lumia N900 has a standard Li-lon 1800 mAh battery with up to 300 hours of stand-by, 7 hours of talk time and 60 hours of music play.

Price：Price sometimes helps us to make our decisions. The Nokia Lumia 900 starts with the $99.99 on-contract price while the HTC Titan II is priced at $199.99 on-contract.

The ultimate versus battle in smartphones – HTC One S vs. Apple iPhone 4S

I have written some posts on the tablets comparison in the past month, including Apple iPad 3 vs. Motorola Droid Xyboard 10.1 and Apple iPad 3 vs. ASUS Transformer Prime. In the following posts, I would continue to bring some device comparison posts to all of you for deeper acknowledgement of various popular devices. And today, I would like to bring the battle of “S” series smartphones, the new HTC One S and the Apple iPhone 4S. No doubt, both smartphones are excellent candidates in nowadays smartphone market with strong competitiveness. The comparison here could also not mean which one is better or not, just as a reference for you when you want to make a choice between these two phones. The iPhone’s iOS and Android OS have different resource needs, though, so the comparison here would mainly focus on the interface, display, camera, multimedia, internet connectivity, price, etc., leaving the application stores aside. Well, here we go.

Camera: The camera interfaces of the 8MP cameras of the One S and the iPhone couldn’t be more different, but both phones have one thing in common – a sub-second camera when it comes to pressing the key, focusing and taking a shot. You can take pictures in the video’s 1920×1088 pixels resolution while filming with the HTC One S, which also for you to takes up to 99 consecutive shots when you hold the shutter button, at the speed of four shots a second. The iPhone 4S is pretty great for you to take pictures and shoot videos, especially with the excellent HDR mode turned on. But by comparsion, we found that the pics from the HTC One S slightly sharper and with more saturated colors compared to the iPhone 4S, making the scene look jollier than it actually was.

Display：The phone displays are pretty different in both size and tech on these two smartphones. The iPhone 4S comes with 3.5” Retina Display with its IPS-LCD technology and 640×960 resolution, meaning 326ppi pixel density, good colors, wide viewing angles, and high brightness. The Retina Display surely produces better visual effect for you to watch HD videos on iPhone 4S. On contract, the HTC One S features a 4.3” AMOLED display which sports 540×960 pixels resolution. Very obviously, the HTC One S becomes defeated by iPhone 4S in display.

Interface: The new Sense 4.0 version on HTC One S is less visually cluttered than the previous editions, resulting in snappy performance. Not that the dual-core processors on both the iPhone 4S and HTC One S, would have problems running any UI or 3rd party app you throw at them anyway. Both interfaces play their respective branding roles well. You can easily tell which one belongs to Apple iPhone or HTC One S.

Multimedia: An important element for users to decide which kind of smartphone should be bought. The HTC One S has Beats Audio branding, which works well by plumping the bass sound in headset mode. The iPhone 4S also needs a good pair of in-ear headphones to make full use of its excellent output sound. Another point is that the HTC One series play DivX/Xvid files up to 1080p with no problems, whereas you’d have to convert 1080P DivX/Xvid files for the iPhone 4S, or hit the App Store for a 3rd party player. And with the larger screen, higher contrast and more vivid colors, the HTC One S could produce a better video playback experience.

Internet connectivity: The HTC One S browser feels much choppier than the one on the iPhone 4S, mainly due to HTC’s overzealous text reflow at each zoom level, but is more functional with its support for Adobe Flash. HTC claimed its One S supports 42Mbps HSDPA for downloading, while the iPhone 4S with 21Mbps radio. Both smartphones have Bluetooth 4.0, Wi-Fi, GPS and wireless media streaming capabilities, and with both you have to use dongles to connect to the HDMI port on your TV for mirroring the screens.

Price: The price plays important role in deciding which phone to choose. If you want to buy one from these two phones, you can go to their home sites for know how much each of them costs if you plan to buy online, otherwise you need to check them in market. The HTC One S is starting from about $550 without carrier subsidies, whereas the 16GB iPhone 4S can be had for $650 at Apple, or $600 at places like Amazon.

HTC announced the HTC One series on MWC 2012, including HTC One X, HTC One S and HTC One V

With the opening of the MWC (Mobile World Congress) 2012, HTC officially released its latest HTC One series, including three fresh new smartphones: the quad-core flagship HTC One X, ultra-slim HTC One S, and the music oriented HTC One V smartphone for the mid-range smartphone market. The flagship phone One X is the most impressive on paper, but the One S isn’t far behind it as a next-gen phone. The One V is their lowest level of the three, yet still manages to include Beats audio and an extremely slim body while maintains the unique look of the once iconic HTC Legend. I would like to make a brief introduction about these three new smartphones:

HTC One X: What was rumored has now been officially confirmed on the spec front. HTC seems to make this HTC One X a wonderful smartphone for users to enjoy HD movies on HTC One X due to its excellent configuration. The device will rock a 1.5GHz quad-core Tegra 3 processor (in most of the world), 1GB of RAM, Android 4.0 with HTC Sense 4.0, a 4.7″Super LCD 2 HD screen with Gorilla Glass, NFC chip, 32GB of storage, 1800mAh non-removable battery, Beats audio, 8MP camera with F2.0 aperture and 28mm lens, and is ridiculously thin at 8.9mm. It will begin to ship globally in April. AT&T has this one locked up in the U.S. though. Click to get the exactly detailed specs of HTC One X.

HTC One S: Though not as the flagship smartphone HTC One X, the One S should not be overlooked. Rocking Qualcomm’s Snapdragon S4 dual-core chipset, this phone is as powerful as any other phone we have seen come to life thus far. It also has a 4.3″qHD display with Gorilla Glass, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, Android 4.0 with Sense 4.0, Beats audio, the same amazing 8MP camera as the One X, 1650mAh battery, and an unbelievably thin 7.8mm body, which may produce even better digital experience for users, like to watch DVD movies on HTC One S. HTC went with an ultra-matte black Ceramic Metal surface that is harder than aluminum and will keep better over time. The One S will also be shipped in April, heading to T-Mobile in the U.S.

HTC One V: Utilizing the classic, award-winning design of the HTC Legend, the HTC One V brings top-end design to a smartphone with broad appeal and a premium experience that delivers an amazing camera and authentic sound. It features a simple, iconic aluminum unibody design that exudes craftsmanship and quality. The One V is HTC’s budget phone for early 2012. It has a single-core processor and 512MB of RAM, yet still runs Android 4.0 and a similarly amazing camera to the One S and One X.
