Apple and iOS Continue to Make Small Gains in U.S. Smartphone Market Share

Apple retained its crown as the number one handset manufacturer among consumers in the U.S., while Google's Android operating system remained the number one platform, according to comScore's latest MobiLens and Mobile Metrix reports. These figures measure smartphone ownership and cover the three months ending January 2014. 


Apple beat out rival Samsung with 41.6 percent market share as compared to Samsung's 26.7 percent. When comparing changes over the measured periods, Apple, Samsung and LG made small gains, while Motorola and HTC fell. Apple's market share continues to grow, but its rate of adoption is slowing. 

Apple may be the top handset maker, but iOS is outnumbered by the volume of Android phones on the market. Apple's iOS platform was number two with 41.6 percent of the smartphone market, while Google's Android OS was number one with 51.7 percent market share in the recently ended period. 



iOS was only the platform to gain ground in the three-month period, inching up from 40.6 percent in the period ending October 2013 to 41.6 percent in the most recent period. Android and BlackBerry lost ground, with each platform dropping 0.5 percentage points. 

comScore measures both ownership and usage across a customer's primary smartphone and tablet. It uses an intelligent online survey as well as both panel and census-based measurement methods to compile its data.

How to transfer movies from iTunes to Kindle Fire HDX 7?

Description: In this article you would learn how to legally free iTunes videos from DRM protection and record your iTunes video to Kindle Fire HDX 7 for playing with high quality.

Spending the weekend with Amazon’s Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch tablet, it’s easy to see why Amazon has built a commanding lead in the Android tablet space. The Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch (which has a companion 8.9-inch version in the wings), is, for now, the reigning champ in power, performance and screen resolution. Yes, it only matches the Google Nexus 7 in pixels per inch, but no other consumer tablet offers the same mobile CPU: Amazon's tablet also has 2GB of RAM, double the 1GB found in the Nexus 7 and roughly quadruple the memory reportedly found in the iPad Mini.

Meanwhile, in a day of normal use that included reading, shopping, watching video, browsing the web, drawing, playing a console-level game, taking and editing photos, the Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch’s battery lasted throughout the day and night.

 

And one of the most significant updates to Amazon's ecosystem is the ability to download selected Prime instant videos to your device. I’m happy to report that you can download the videos and, instead of waiting for the download to complete, you can start watching them almost immediately. But when turns to video downloaded from iTunes store, you will find it is not so easy to transfer iTunes movies to Kindle Fire HDX 7 and other android devices as iTunes movies are all protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management). To get iTunes movies playback on Kindle Fire HDX 7, you need to remove DRM protection from iTunes m4v movies in advance, and then you can play them freely.

How to enable iTunes video/music DRM-free for Kindle Fire HDX 7?

Step 1: Install the DRM Removal program – Pavtube ChewTune or Pavtube ChewTune for Mac.

(Money-saving Tips:)

ChewTune ($29) + Blu-ray Video Converter Ultimate($65) = Only $75, Save $19
ChewTune for Mac($29) + iMedia Converter for Mac($65) = Only $75, Save $19
ChewTune($29) + ByteCopy($42) = Only $54, Save $17
ChewTune for Mac($29) + ByteCopy for Mac($42) = Only $54, Save $17

Pavtube ChewTune is developed as a professional DRM Removal tool and DRM Video Recorder to help users legally strip off DRM protection from iTunes M4V movies, Amazon Instant Videos and Digital Copy so that you are able to watch almost all DRM movies on multiple smartphones and tablets anywhere you like.


Step 2: Start the Top DRM removal software, hit the "Add video" button and browser the source iTunes videos location for loading.



Note: If you are running a trial version of Pavtube DRM Removal Tool, make sure you have turned off iTunes before running this app to ensure its stability.

Step 3. From the "Format" drop-down list, choose suitable profile for Kindle Fire HDX 7. Here I suggest you choose "Common Video -> H.264 Video (*.mp4)" as output format.



Optional - If you like, you could adjust profile settings including video codec, bitrate, frame rate, etc to get better video and audio quality for watching iTunes m4v movies on Kindle Fire HDX 7.

Step 4. Hit the "Convert" button to start recording iTunes movies. After it finishes, click the "Open" icon to locate the recorded iTunes movie, and you are ready to transfer it to your Kindle Fire HDX 7, it's very eary.

Tip 1: Because of 1:1 video recording, it takes as long as the source movie length to finish the whole ChewTune DRM-free process, so if your source iTunes movies is about 1 hour, ChewTune needs more than 1 hour to complete the iTunes to Kindle Fire HDX 7. So if you wanna get a test before fully purchasing, it's better to select a small sample video for testing.

Tip 2: Since Pavtube ChewTune supports batch processing facility, you could import more than one DRM videos and run overnight, and you would get all videos recorded the next morning. Don't forget to set up Windows power options to never turn off monitor or never let the computer system standby.

“Hi, I just ordered a Kindle Fire HDX 7-inch on Amazon; couldn’t be more excited for waiting it delivered LOL! But here is a question: I read that its supported video formats are very limited; can I still watch youtube videos on it?”

Amazon just released a new 7-inch tablet – Kindle Fire HDX 7.

Similar to its ancestor Kindle Fire HD, the new HDX could only support very limited video formats which make playing videos painful; moreover, 16GB is fast becoming too small for storing HD content. So whether we can watch MKV/AVI/VOB/Tivo/WMV/MPG/FLV/F4V on Kindle Fire HDX 7?

The answer is YES!

Transfer and Watch Blu-ray movies on Kindle Fire HDX 7 tablet

Have you ever thought of copying some of your Blu-ray movies onto the 7-inch Kindle Fire to make full use of 1920x1200 7" HD display? Then how to play Blu-ray on Kindle Fire HDX 7 tablet? Here, Pavtube Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX Ripper will convert Blu-rays to Kindle Fire HDX 7 MP4 format for watching.

 

A few weeks ago, Amazon announced their new line up Kindle Fire tablets which are running on an Android fork known as FireOS 3.0 “Mojito” OS. These new Kindle Fire HDX’s have some pretty spectacular specs actually. The Kindle Fire HDX is packing a Snapdragon 800 processor with a 1920×1200 resolution 7-inch display. It’s also 9mm thin weighing in at about 303g. The Amazon Kindle Fire HDX is running their Android-based FireOS 3.0, which does have some changes, and the initial reviews all said that the devices were pretty fast and responsive. Right now, it’s a pretty good looking tablet that is probably suitable for most people. The Kindle Fire HDX will be hitting the UK on November 13th, and heading up North to Canada on November 26th. 

All of the above is good, but like many other tablets, Kindle Fire HDX 7 does not deliver native support for Blu-ray/DVD movies, so if you have the intension to watch Blu-ray movies on it, you need to convert the Blu-rays into a format compatible with your Kindle Fire HDX 7 in advance.

I’ve found the quality to be excellent, and see no difference when compared to playing the discs themselves. Meanwhile the audio/video synchronization is very good, the size of the subtitles too. If you’re a Mac user, please turn to the equivalent Mac version – Blu-ray Ripper for Mac, which can transfer DVD movies to Kindle Fire HDX tablet on Mac OS X (Mavericks and Mountain Lion included).

Below is the detailed guide on the Blu-ray to Kindle Fire HDX 7 conversion process. 

Step 1. Load Blu-ray movies.

To take advantage of your screen, set the video size exactly as the display resolution- i.e. 1920 x 1080 for Kindle Fire HD 7. 


For better quality, set higher bitrate. We find the best balance between 500 to 2500kbps is just all right on 7-inch screen. To shorten conversion time, set lower quality. Note that when you lower file size, you lower video quality.

The Kindle Fire is a tablet computer version of Amazon.com's Kindle e-book reader. I often  use it to read ebooks, listen to music, surf the internet and play movies from it. Now I have the videos on my kindle for my toddler to watch while I'm getting ready in the morning. And I wanted to get DVDs I already own onto my Kindle, but the issue is that I can't directly copy DVD movies from disc to Kindle Fire.

After some trying and testing I came up with a solution which I'd like to describe here so that all Kindle owners can benefit from the procedure. I find an online forum which introduces this Best DVD ripper- Pavtube DVD to Kindle Converter. With it, I can rip DVD to a format which Kindle Fire supports, then transfer the ripped video file to Kindle Fire for playback.

Overall, I have used the trial version of Handbrake, DVDFab, Aimersoft, but when I came to Pavtube DVDAid, I find it is really a nice DVD Ripper software which gives the best result. Ease of use and good reviews, sale price. How easy and fast it is! Here's a guide about how to rip DVD to Kindle Fire format with Ideal DVD to MP4 Converter and then playback it.

Sony QX10 and QX100 Lenses for Smartphones Leak Out

Sony has a pair of incredible new lenses coming out to work in tandem with smartphones for higher quality mobile photography. The Sony DSC-QX10 and DSC-Q100 are actually lenses with an image sensor built-in.

We’ve seen similar designs with the Ricoh GXR system; however, the novel approach of the Sony QX10 and QX100 is the use of a smartphone as the camera interface. The QX10 and QX100 are controlled by smartphones via WiFi or NFC connectivity.

While the leaked image above shows the unit connected to a Sony Xperia smartphone, rumors suggest it will also be compatible with iOS and Android devices.

It appears that the QX10 will feature a 10x zoom range – given the 4.45-44.5mm zoom range (probably about 25-250mm equivalent). The sensor is rumored to be a 1/2.3″ 18MP sensor – so it is definitely in the compact camera territory.

According to SonyAlphaRumors, the electronics giant is expected to release two models: the DSC-QX10 (pictured above) and the DSC-QX100. The latter will ship with the same 1-inch sensor used with the RX100 Mark II, while the other lens will include a larger 10x focal range and a 1/2.3-inch 18-megapixel CMOS sensor. There's no word on pricing or availability, but with Sony's IFA press conference right around the corner, we'll likely get the full scoop (and hopefully some hands-on time) come September 4th.

Alternatively, the QX100 is rumored to be a direct clone of the RX100 II – complete with a 20.2MP 1-inch sensor. Depending on the execution, this could be a big wow factor for smartphone photographers. That said, it’s a big chunk of lens to carry around in addition to one’s smartphone…

While it is nice to see innovation from Sony, this is just the first round of these devices. If there’s a future in this market, I would expect to see something much different and more compact over the next couple generations.

The world's first Android-based mirrorless camera- Samsung Galaxy NX Hands-on

It's long been rumored, and it's finally happened: the interchangeable-lens camera has just stepped into the modern, connected world and become a smart device!

After last year's Galaxy Camera, Samsung split in two directions. It went closer to the phone with the Galaxy S 4 Zoom, shrinking the form factor (and some of the specs) for something that closer approximates a pocket-friendly device, and it got serious about interchangeable-lens cameras. 

Now Samsung has announced the Galaxy NX: the world's first mirrorless interchangeable lens camera running the Android operating system. The Galaxy NX takes a 20.3 megapixel, SLR-style mirrorless camera and adds 3G, 4G LTE and Wi-Fi, connectivity and Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean). The camera sports a gigantic 4.8" HD LCD touchscreen - with which you'll control nearly all camera functions. The Galaxy NX will be available sometime this summer for an undisclosed price.


Samsung NX, not surprisingly, draws much from the company's experience not only with smartphones -- a section of the market in which it has a dominant presence -- but also from 2012's fixed-lens Galaxy Camera. Like that model, the Galaxy NX is a quad-core device that runs Google's Linux-based Android 4.2 Jelly Bean operating system, along with built-in 3G / 4G LTE and Wi-Fi wireless connectivity.

Beneath the skin, the Samsung Galaxy NX is pretty similar to the Samsung NX300, in terms of its imaging hardware, using the same 20.3 megapixel image processor and DRIMe IV branded image processor. On the rear is a huge 4.8-inch high definition LCD panel and SVGA electronic viewfinder. Sensitivity ranges to ISO 25,600 equivalent, and the Samsung Galaxy NX is capable of swift 8.6 frames per second burst shooting.
 Samsung has yet to announce pricing or availability for the Galaxy NX, which the company has just revealed at a global press conference. Nor has it yet revealed which carriers will be offering the Samsung Galaxy NX in the US market, or overseas.

We've already been hands-on with this extremely interesting compact system camera, though -- so if you want to know more, you'll want to read our Samsung Galaxy NX review for first impressions.
