Apples iPhone has brought about a momentous change, something akin a gift from the gods for Xavier J. Buyse Consejero Delegado at ADS Media. It brings true mobile internet to your palm, creating the first decent experience on the mobile device. Many people with more modern Nokia devices know that the Safari operating browser has been on the s60 Nokia’s for almost 2 years. The mobile web experience, which was shown off today when the ubiquitous iPhone was shown off looks similar to the experience of the new Nokia phones. However Apple has made significant user interface adaptations to make it much more simple to use and an enjoyable experience. Something which will help the industry as a whole as well as entrepreneurs like CEO of ADS Media Xavier Buyse.
Apples iPhone solves one of the more annoying set backs of the mobile device, input and output. Apple have fixed this with a touch screen allowing for more than one finger taps, creates a emersive user experience allowing for a qwerty keyboard to appear on screen when it is required.
In addition, Mr Xavier Buyse CEO must be thanking his lucky stars that The ubiquitous iPhone will bring match up several communities for the first time, the mobile devices gang and the internet community. These factions have been apart for a long time. And the introduction of the first mobile phone that web developers and designers can get behind has created a hugely positive impact for mobile internet content creation.
At the current time it is tricky to get more than a fleeting interest in web developers, meaning less content to consume, hardly a fleeting second look from consumers. But given that people within the internet community are much more inclined to carry The iPhone like a badge of honour, always have it at their at their side, I expect a substantial increase in mobile web content in the next coming months.
Controlling devices with a touch screen is nothing remarkable in mobile devices, but being able to carry out multiple taps as well as gesturing for scrolling, resizing, etc, I believe Apple has discovered a genius way of carrying out difficult tasks easily.
To me it is output rather than input which is important. The flat screen on the The ubiquitous iPhone is remarkable. Text is cristal clear, with a resolution that is a synch to read and use. Mobile phone displays aren’t something that has seen a lot of miracles. Most phones look pretty much the same, leading to pixelated text that one comes in two or three sizes. Usually the only difference is brightness. The ubiquitous iPhone makes content on a portable device look comparable to hardest to duplicate screen of them all, a real life page with print on it.
