With the availability of the Windows version 7 Phone chipsets, Qualcomm to expand the reach of the platform outside the Android handset, which hopefully will sales and expand market shares of Qualcomm.
Snapdragon chipset supports all major operating systems including Android, Windows 7 Phone and more. Therefore, we are eager for various OEM vendors – who run many operating systems – to select the Snapdragon platform on their devices.
Now Snapdragon can be found in a 120 form and on 20 commercial devices, including smartphones, tablet computers, as well as smartbook. For example, the tablet-smartphone hybrid device Streak Dell, which recently launched in Indonesia.

Snapdragon is a kind of superiority is an integrated chipset and offers an optimal combination of process performance (via a customized CPU), connectivity, multimedia and economical battery usage. Before this, Snapdragon chipset is used in some previous versions of Windows-based smartphones, such as QSD8250 Qualcomm chipset that is used by mobile phones and HTC HTC HD2 HD7.
However, now Qualcomm has provided a large amount of investment in optimizing the chipset platform for Windows Phone 7.

Some famous Android phones, like Google Nexus One, Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, Acer Stream / Liquid, or HTC Desire also use Snapdragon chipsets.
The presence of Snapdragon in Windows 7 Phone might enlarge the market share of Qualcomm chipsets to compete with Nvidia’s Tegra chipset, Texas Instruments OMAP 4, A4 used the iPhone, and Marvell chipsets that use Blackberry.
According to research firm IDC, Microsoft still has a market share of 6.4 percent of the smartphone, the smallest among Symbian (42.7 percent), BlackBerry (17.6 percent), Android (15.8 percent), and the IOS (13.3 percent.)

Organics active matrix display technology, light emitting diode, or AMOLED is well known accomplished with the level of contrast that is very sharp, detailed images that are also very sharp, but the power saving. In fact, almost all smartphones or smart phone manufacturers are now choosing the technology for its newest product.

Because of numerous requests, the supply of AMOLED display even thinner because producers overwhelmed the screen height to serve the needs of these. To anticipate the shortage of supply, Taiwanese smart phone manufacturer, HTC, will switch to other technologies.

HTC plans to immediately replace the use of AMOLED display with Super LCD (SLCD). Several new mobile phone, including HTC Desire and Nexus One new output, will use this SLCD screen.

In quality, HTC is not inferior to ensure SLCD AMOLED, even claimed to have sharp resolution, high contrast, larger visual angle, and better power efficiency on the same screen size.

SLCD technology allows us to produce goods more quickly to meet increasing demand.

HTC announced plans this week after market research firm iSuppli warned that the supply of AMOLED LCD which can be inhibited Android curbing competition against Apple’s iPhone. HTC and other mobile phone manufacturers that use Google’s Android platform made many do use this type of screen. The output of Apple’s iPhone uses AMLCD technology.
