What can you expect from Android in 2014 - ZDNet.nl

Summary: Android is a growing market with more and more applications. What this brings us the next twelve months?

For Android 2013 was an inspired year: phones were bigger, faster and more robust. The number of tablets grew numerous. And finally focused Android on other things like a smart watch and a video game.

Looking ahead, we see all this back in 2014, albeit with a slight change. This is more evident at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in January and Mobile World Congress (MWC) in February.

But what exactly is the expectation? Our colleague Scott Webster CNet looks into his crystal ball and put the Android trends for the coming year in a row.

Google Play
A striking introduction in 2013 was Google Play Edition. The latest devices from LG, Sony, Samsung and HTC each run a standard version of the operating system, without having to implement their own software, apps and customizations. This reduces the influence of the manufacturers.

This does not mean that in 2014 the custom UI and sponsored apps disappear. It remains elbows at the top and every manufacturer is trying to make a difference with its software, but the approach is more subtle. The focus is more on quality than quantity.

The expectation is that the focus is not with Android in the first half of 2014. The hope is that by the end of the year, version 5.0 is finally announced.

Battery Life the endurance of the battery is next year just as important as the introduction of the first generation of smartphones. Especially now that the screens are getting bigger and more powerful processor, every bit of extra energy welcome. Larger smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and HTC One Max have enough space for a bigger battery.

Fortunately

manufacturers also benefit from other models with creative solutions. As more and more companies for a permanent battery, which can not be removed. Now the attention is on here, it is expected that the lifetime of a battery pack increases considerably in the coming months.

something else with which you can take into the field of batteries, is that the wireless charging of your phone is going to be more popular. Once it is clear which of the available techniques is most suitable, you can bet that manufacturers are on top.

New
The possibilities are endless and so are Android manufacturers are constantly looking for new applications. Samsung came with the Galaxy S4 Zoom cameras (review) and Galaxy Camera NX.

It is also expected that at CES and MWC to see lots of portable equipment. The emphasis is on the so-called smart watch, a watch that runs on Android or Bluetooth works with your phone. For manufacturers is 2014 years to see how this trend catches on.

The best Android smartphones of 2013 - Nutech

Also in 2013 was buzzing on the smartphone market. Android dominates with 80 percent market share at, but what were now the best Android smartphones in the past year?

1.) HTC One

is not well with HTC. In the third quarter, the first loss ever suffered and the market is not growing. In Europe, the position according to HTC stable, but in the United States and Asia is going so well.

However, HTC has the best Android phone of 2013 made. The aluminum casing feels solid, the screen is of excellent quality, the battery life is good, the sound is excellent, the performance more than good. The only downside is the mediocre camera.

Review: HTC best smartphone of the moment

2.) Nexus 5

Google also made in 2013 a smartphone with an Android manufacturer. It opted again for LG. The Nexus 5 combines high-end specifications with low price of 399 euros.

The Nexus devices are an initiative from Google. With each new Android version allows a manufacturer with a product (smartphone or tablet) with a bare version of the operating system. Normal throw Samsung, LG and Sony their own software layer over Android.

Nexus 5 thus has little fuss, but an excellent display, the latest version of Android (4.4) and excellent housing. Unfortunately, the camera performs slightly less than in other high-end models and the battery life is average. The price that compensates amply.

Review: Nexus 5 combines low price with quality

3.) Galaxy Note 3

Samsung has so far only succeeded in making. really popular phablet Within three months, there are ten million units of the Galaxy Note 3 sold much more than the previous versions in the same period.

Note 3 has especially been a much better housing. The corners are slightly squarer, but the back looks much less inexpensive and is comfortable in the hand than in the Note 2. Here comes a beautiful 5.5-inch screen in Note 3 and has excellent battery life. Unlike the S4, the 3 discs at all levels (slightly) improved which means great progress under the line.


4.) Galaxy S4

new flagship Sam sung this year as expected, the best-selling Android smartphone. That still makes the device not listed in the top three.

Although the full HD screen and the camera is nothing wrong, it is not the fastest device of the year and the software of Samsung remains a thorn in the eye. The plastic housing is in appearance and durability not to the top and the step of the S III to the S4 was limited.


5.) Moto G

Motorola is a stranger in this list. The manufacturer was absent for many years in the Dutch market and the latest device costs only 219 euros. Difficult to compare with the high-end stopper in the rest of the list so.

Yet the Moto G worth mentioning. The limited storage of 8 GB is a downside and there is no 4G support. However, this is well made with a beautiful screen, excellent battery life and surprising performance. That coupled with the price will be very attractive to many people.
