Which is the best smartphone among the battle of top contenders

There are popular contenders in the battle of smartphones- Samsung, Apple, Sony, HTC, Nokia and BlackBerry. All these contenders have their best smartphone in the consumer market. I don't want to criticize any company or smartphone. I am just taking the few features of big smartphones in the market that can help you to consider which could be better one, if you haven't buy any yet. I would like to compare few features like Battery backup, Camera and Resolution, Add-ons, and Price that i gained while reading on different tech blogs.
The list of top smartphones in the market:
  • Samsung Galaxy S4
  • iPhone 5
  • HTC One
  • Sony Xperia Z
  • Nokia Lumia 920
  • BlackBerry Z10
You might have read the full specification above listed smartphones on Internet and even may have brought one of them. This post is not totally criticizing any product. It's only comparing the reviews received posted by experts on different tech blogs. So, lets start review the few main features that one usually compare while buying one of the phone above listed.

1. Camera and Resolution: You should know that the quality image does not depend totally on the megapixels valued on camera on the phone. The factors like optics, sensor technology, image processing and the software matter too. The contenders using optics technology are Ultrapixel vs PureView vs Cybershot vs Apple Optics vs BB Time shift. The latest launched smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4 having 13 megapixel camera, it actually does deliver very well in action shots and very colorful images but lacks in low light. The HTC One has lowest mega pixel camera of about 4.o, but Ultrapixel technology makes it absolute image taking in low light with excellent clarity in action shots. The Nokia Lumia 920 may not be as good as the real PureView technology on the 808 phone but still, it is one of the best on phones. The Xperia Z has 13.0 MP camera too with no color bleeds, fast response, great contrasts. iPhone 5 has the best quality images, best software, and easy-to-use. BB Z10 with 8 MP camera brings the great camera quality images from BB Time Shift capabilities.

2. Battery Backup: S4 launched with octa-core processor with better power saving technology having 2600 mAh. But, the Xperia Z and the HTC One powered with 2300 mAh and both do a good job of conserving power. The Lumia 920 at 2000 mAh, BB Z10 at 1800 mAh and iPhone 5 at 1660 mAh as iOS is not battery saver. In actually, mAh is just the estimate of true battery life, other things like processor, size of the screen, usage, and apps hungry for battery matters.

3. Add-ons: When you buy a phone, you usually check features you like, are there or not. So, have a look which smartphone contains what. The Galaxy S4 comes with dual camera shooting, dual video conferencing, Air view, gesture control, smart scroll and many more. The HTC One comes with awesome looks and Blinkfeed user interface and dual amplified speakers and a noise cancellation microphone. The Xperia Z is water-proof and dust-proof phone with adding features for the user that other phones don't have. The BB Z10 with its all gesture and thumb control interface, plus has some features like BB Hub, video call on BBM. The Lumia 920 brings the fresh OS smartphone- Windows. The iPhone 5 is still one of the easiest-to-use smartphones and keeps adding fantastic new features that actually matter with every OS update.

4. Price: Price remains the biggest criteria for the users. All smartphones are ranged between Rs.40,000 to Rs.50,000. iPhone 5 costs Rs.40,000 around and Samsung S4 and HTC One are also launched with Rs.42,000. The Xperia Z and Lumia 920 costs lower than other Rs.37,000 and Rs.35,000 respectively. But, i think BB Z10 has done a mistake which makes it costly smartphone of Rs.44,000.

Buzzer interface with 8051 microcontroller

Buzzer  is a electronic device that converts the electronic signal into buzzing noise, that is applied to it. It can be used as electronic bell or as quiz buzzer in many applications around us. Here, i world like to discuss the interfacing of a small buzzer with 8051 microcontroller and how different projects can be constructed. Buzzer Interfacing: This project shows the interface with AT89S52 microcontroller to a buzzer. When a push button is pressed, the buzzer will get ON and OFF ( number of times set in the code ) and then stops. Circuit Diagram: - The port P1 of the microcontroller is connected to buzzer. This type of connection is possible, if the current requirements of the buzzer is not more than 20mA. The output is in current source mode so that buzzer will turn ON when the output of the port is logic LOW. Switch is connected to port P3 which remains at logic HIGH by pull up resistor.  Code: #include "REG52.h" #define buz P1 sbit SW=P3^0; long i...

Comparison Chart Between 8051, 8052, 8031and 8751

8051 is a popular 8-bit microcontroller and has been used in many applications since Intel introduced it. Many 8051 architecture are produced by Triscend, Intel, Atmel, Philips, Infineon (Siemens), ISSI, and Max Corp. Today, 8051 microcontrollers may not be popular but, the 8051 architecture is still popular and employed in thousands of embedded applications. This 8-bit architecture has been different segments such as 8052, 8051, 8751 and 8031 . 8052 is the super-set of 8051 and 8031 is the memory-less microcontroller hence, it has interfaced with external ROM. Whereas, 8751 chip has only 4Kbytes of on chip UV-EPROM. Everyone knows about the general 40-pin microcontroller i.e. 8051 introduced by Intel in 1980s and consists of serial communication pins, Timer, Interrupts, RAM, ROM. It has 4 ports and each port has 8 pins, total 32 pins and other 8 pins for other purposes. 8052 is the super-set of 8051 that consists of 8K bytes of internal RAM (4K in 8051), 256 by...

Different ways to generate delays in 8051

The delay length in 8051 microcontroller depends on three factors: The crystal frequency the number of clock per machine the C compiler. The original 8051 used 1/12 of the crystal oscillator frequency as one machine cycle. In other words, each machine cycle is equal to 12 clocks period of the crystal frequency connected to X1-X2 pins of 8051. To speed up the 8051, many recent versions of the 8051 have reduced the number of clocks per machine cycle from 12 to four, or even one. The frequency for the timer is always 1/12th the frequency of the crystal attached to the 8051, regardless of the 8051 version. In other words, AT89C51, DS5000, and DS89C4x0 the duration of the time to execute an instruction varies, but they all use 1/12th of the crystal's oscillator frequency for the clock source. 8051 has two different ways to generate time delay using C programming, regardless of 8051 version. The first method is simply using Loop   program function in which Delay() funct...
