Samsung delivered some of the awesome phones this year, while Apple continue with its agenda i.e. 1 Smartphone per year. Samsung ruling the smartphone world and its latest product (Samsung Galaxy Nexus) clinch all attention from other smartphones. This year also dedicated to dual-core processor, almost every high-end smartphone launched with dual-core processor which improve the multi-tasking.

We’d also seen that Android dominates the Smartphone world and this operating system setting new records every day.

1. Samsung Galaxy Nexus

   

   Samsung and Google together launched the new Galaxy Nexus powered by Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich. Since its launched, the phone creates lots of buzz in market due to its specification and the Android latest flavor i.e ICS. Samsung Galaxy Nexus has 1.2 GHz Dual Core Processor with 4.65 Super AMOLED display at 720p resolution.

With Galaxy Nexus Video camera, you can shoot video in full 1080p resolution. time lapse mode give you the power to shoot stunning videos.

2. Apple iPhone 4S

   

   I’m not an Apple fan boy but I like to include iPhone 4S in my list because of two reason: Dual-core A5 chip which is very faster and Siri – Virtual Assistant. Apple iPhone 4S has Dual-core A5 chip which deliver up to two times more performance and up to seven times faster graphics. iPhone 4S has 8 megapixels camera which can shoot 1080p HD videos. The larger f/2.4 aperture lets in more light, so photos looks brighter and better. Siri – The Virtual Assistant on iPhone 4S lets you use your voice to send command to your phone. You can send messages, schedule meetings, place phone calls and search anything on web. Siri set alarm for you or search any  location or places on map. Apple iPhone 4S powered by iOS5.

3. Samsung Galaxy S2

   

   The most successful smartphone from Samsung camp is Samsung Galaxy S2. It has 1.2 GHz Dual Core processor with 1 GB of RAM provides high-speed multi-tasking and smoother UI. It comes with an 8MP camera which can record 1080p HD videos. The phones comes with Super AMOLED Plus screen which delivers high contrast image and cut video response time. Samsung Galaxy S2 runs on Android 2.3 Gingerbread but soon you can update it to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

4. HTC Sensation XE

   

   It’s tough to choose between Sensation XE and XL. But I prefer HTC Sensation XE because it has 1.5 GHz dual core processor (Sensation XL has single core processor) with 768 MB RAM. It comes up with 8 megapixel camera with Auto focus and dual LED flash which capture 1080p HD recording. HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio gives you the ultimate music experience coupled with SRS sound.If you’re multimedia fan than this smartphone made for you. 4.3 inch qHD display couple with Beats audio brings you an unprecedented movie experience.

5. Nokia Lumia 800

   

   Nokia Lumia 800 is first Nokia phone powered by Windows Phone 7 OS. The Curved 3.7” AMOLED glass touchscreen integrated into a smooth one-piece body. The phone is light and looks beautiful in our palm. It comes  up with 8 MP Auto focus with Carl Zeiss optics, 2x LED flash which is capable to record 720p HD video. The New Nokia Lumia looks like N9 but having Windows Phone 7.5 Mango OS running inside the phone. Features which bring down the phone to 5th place are 512 MB of RAM (which is low for high end smartphone) and no front camera. The Phones has 16 GB internal memory and 25 GB cloud storage. The phone doesn’t have the SD card facility. So you’ve to  utilize memory properly. Cloud storage will definitely life saver but you need to learn how SkyDrive works (not a difficult task to learn). If you’re social network addict than you’ll definitely love this phone, People Hub keep help you to connect your Facebook, Twitter, Linked friends.
