The Newest Technological Smart Phones
A Smartphone is a mobile phone with more advanced computing and capability and connectivity than basic feature phones. Most Smartphones today are powered by Google’s Android and Apple’s iOS mobile operating systems. In the late 1990s many mobile phone users carried a separate dedicated PDA device, running early versions of operating systems such as Palm OS, BlackBerry OS or Windows CE/Pocket PC. These operating systems would later evolve into mobile operating systems. In 1996 Nokia released the Nokia 9000 which became their best selling phone of that time. With time phones have been changing with the new technologies. The following are the best top ten Smartphones in 2013.
