What Phone do I buy right now? (2014)

That is a frequently asked question. If you are willing to buy a phone and you are confused which one to buy since there are huge number of phones right now. That's why at Tech MattersPlanet, I provide you help on what phone which might just suit you! The suggestions are accompanied by explanations about why I suggested that.

So, yeah. The main factor I feel decides what phone you might want to own in your budget or how much you are willing to spend on your device. I have sorted my suggestions based on the Price tags.

Under $160 (About Rs. 10,000)

In this budget, I sincerely prefer a Windows Phone. Other Android Phones are good but when compared to Nokia's Hardware quality, I strongly support Windows Phones. Low Budget WP have excellent hardware quality which thereby increases your performance. I feel, you will be satisfied with your phone speed.
-> The Nokia Lumia 630 
-> The Nokia Lumia 525
-> The Lumia 535
EDIT: Xiaomi 1S (Put forward by our Fan, Keerthivasan)
You can maybe try the Moto G2 as well! ;)

Under $330 (About Rs. 20,000)

Very interesting budget. Android Phones are cool here!
-> The Moto X Android works perfectly with this great phone)
->The Sony Xperia ZR (Good back camera maeks me suggest it)
-> The Nokia Lumia 730 (Good Solid build. Available in Orange)
-> The Sony Xperia C3 (Good front and back cameras including 4.4)

Under $500 (About Rs. 30,000)


I found the best range of mobile here! Just perfectly will suit your daily use, gaming, internet etc.

-> The Nexus 5(Though a bit old, its still a great device. Can be rooted to 5.0)
-> The Lumia 1020(If Mega Pixels, matter then this 41MP giant is the best)
-> HTC Desire 816 (Take that for the front facing speakers)
-> The Moto X2. (the later upgrade for Moto X)

Above $500 

You can't beat this range. Probably the best one. Has loads and some of the best phones. Display clarity, gaming and internet is a great experience here.

-> The HTC One M8 (Awesome phone. Guaranteed)
-> The Samsung Galaxy Alpha(My most fav. phone from Samsung yet)
-> The iPhone 5S/iPhone 6 plus(You decide between that XD)







-> The Xperia Z3(Sony have their best phones here, believe me)




So, yeah. That's all. Hope you have got your phone for the season. I have given suggestions and reduced the huge no. to a smaller no. for you to choose. I assure you your choice from this would be great. Hoping to see you with your new phone and you enjoy it.

My Dream Tablet, 2014

My imaginary view of my Dream tablet with Front facing Speakers 

Sorry, I got it late guyz, But finally here it IS! 'My Dream Tablet for 2014'. If you had missed my 'Dream Smartphone',

 http://techfrome.blogspot.in/2014/11/my-dream-smart-phone-2014-version-1-my.html

With November being a good month for tablets, here's my 'Dream tablet'. Tablets are always a large screened, mostly non calling(Due to their size, maybe) devices. 
So, here's The D tab(I call it). It has quite a middle sized display which diagonally measures 8.1". That's some where between the current tabs(the iPad mini, 7.9" and the Nexus 9, 9", Nokia N1, 7.9"). The display also supports a HD AMOLED tech display. A larger screen may not always mean huge size cuz the bezels are thin and the breadth is less as well which makes holding in one hand easier. The biggest thing I have added here are 'Front Facing Speakers', located on the bottom of the tab. I had a concern about its position but I guess that wont trouble and be perfect for listening as well. Other specs include a 8MP Back Camera and a 2 MP front. That's enough for a tab I guess. 8 MP pics wont eat up memory so that's a plus. 2 GB RAM mixed with Android 5.0 Lollipop will make a perfect pair. 32 Gigs will be perfect for internal while external storage can be added as well. For a premium feel, a metal band around the D tab is just perfect for holding. 
So, here's the SUM up (guyz suggest a good processor for this)
Name: D Tab
Camera: 8MP and 2MP
Internal: 32 GB
External upto 64 GB
RAM: 2 GB
Display: 8.1" AMOLED HD Display
OS: Android 5.0
Speakers: Front Facing Speakers.
Let me know about your views. Please thumbs up if you like. Comment below if you have any idea about the processor. thanks for reading, Keep reading!! :)

Why the Nokia N1 is certainly going to ROCK?

The Nokia N1 Tablet

 This is the Brand new Android tablet from Nokia. It was announced and I am gonna tell you why this tablet is certainly gonna rock the whole tablet show!

Ever since, this tablet was announced, people are waiting expectantly for this to arrive in their countries. This, as well know is the first tablet from Nokia after a long time. Moreover this is an Android powered device. It's got Android 5.0 with Nokia's own Z Launcher. It's first pictures give us an image of a stylish tablet with an around 7-inch display. The UI looks elegant and neat. Nokia was a brand which everyone believed in (They do now too). It is known for it's great Hardware quality and user friendliness. Nokia was a company which dominated the Phone market before Apple and Samsung even did. The Finnish company, I feel is very reliable. Such a company didn't have much popularity in the recent times. Microsoft Acquired it and all those stuff happened. So, it's a long time since people even saw anything great. So, here's THAT moment. Nokia has this awesome tablet which, I believe WILL be a tough competition for other tablet makers. This tablet has put Nokia ahead I must say. Though we are yet to look at it's full review, My first thoughts are that it has excellent features and it will be reliable. I am very sure this is gonna make a huge bang and people will look to buy this one! The Technical Specs of this tablet are very convincing apart from it's look. There wont be any doubt on Quality factor because it's Nokia! \m/

New Anti-Shake Spoon, With love from Google.



Here is a reason about how Technology helps people! Here's a special spoon for those who need a little help in using a spoon without shaking. 

Google is said to have jumped into this product in September this year. They have developed a new 'Anti Shake Spoon' for patients suffering form Parkinson's because of which eating has been a problem due to trembling hands. This spoon, with it's algorithms, senses the movements to make suitable adjustments and thus help the spoon to be moved perfectly with out shaking. This can help hundreds of people in their day to day life. Google is said to be working on other instruments that might also further help in diseases.

Why Windows 8/8.1 still rocks for Phones?

A screen shot of Windows 8

While Windows 10 has been well announced, let us look at why Windows 8 for Windows Phones still rock?

We have been using a lot of these Android and iOS devices. But then, the Windows Phones still have a lot to offer apart from Android/iOS. Many people I have heard prefer Android or iOS, I don't know why. But Windows Phones have a lot to offer software and user interface wise. The basic system, as we know is a Start screen with interactive live tiles. Believe me they are seriously some fun to use with. Why I like Windows is because it has these tiles rather than the 'Grid system' of the app lists. The next thing is a smooth system even in a low budget phone. That's pretty nice. Windows 8 is quite old since it was released, but it still is my top preference in terms of it's neat UI. The thing about Windows 8 for laptops is different, but when it comes to phones, This OS is one of the best. The OS, doesn't lack anything. It's has it's own Maps, Xbox (for games), Music Library and works perfectly. The Store might have less apps, but still has everything needed. There are updates you get and simply does the job for you! 
So, as far as Mobile UI's are concerned, Windows Phone 8/8.1 rocks! If you still would like it, Just get one and it will serve your needs! Waiting for Windows 10!
Thanks for reading and if You have any comments or anything, please put that in the comments section. Wait for my next one, 'My Dream Tablet, 2014'.
Thanks again.

MY DREAM SMART PHONE, 2014 (Version 1)

My imaginary view of My Dream Smart phone. 
I have been reading all these new 'My Dream Smartphones'... So here's my version of how my dream smartphone would look. Please note that these are my views only. 
My Dream phone (I call it D Phone) supports a 5.3 inch Capacitive Touch HD Display. 
I would like a 3 MP front for better selfies! 
A 16 MP 4K recorder is the best for awesome pictures. 
I am a great fan of thin Bezels and greater pixels. Curved edges are perfect for holding. 
32 Gigs of internal storage fits my requirement. 
After all, What's a Phone without a Good RAM?
3 Gigs of RAM enabling smooth performance and supporting high intensive and frame rate games in the need of the hour! :P
EDIT: The processor of this phone would be the Qualcomm Snapdragon S4. That's cuz I am very comfortable with it on my Nokia. 
I kinda prefer Stock Android with these Huge specs!
So, yes guyz, this is the first version of my 'D Phone'. Hoping for more enhancements in the the Technical specifications.. Hope you guyz enjoyed it. I will be back with the next one.

NOVEMBER, 2014: A boon for tablets!

What a month this November has been! So many awesome tablets in the market have been announced! Three of the biggest ones that caught my eye are:
The iPad Air 2
The Nexus 9
AND THE Nokia N1.
All of these tablets meet a great expectation of mine. The Nexus 9 was cool with it's new Specs and metal band around it. :P
And the Nokia N1. I must say, the KING, Nokia is back! The Android running device is widely expected now all around. 
Meanwhile the iPad Air 2 has been great too! 
So, I must say this has been a great month so far for tablets and manufacturers will be looking to put their tablet into the hands of consumers because all of them are AWESOME!  :)
