There seems to be a growing interest for
Android Phones in Jamaica. Despite the clear dominance of Blackberry phones in this country many people have gotten tired of the poor usability, poor browsing experience, and poor battery life of RIM phones. Many then look to the iPhone, and it has quite a few users, however there are those that absolutely love Androids.
For Android phone users there love affairs begins with some of the phone's features. For example:
- Quick search box - a search box that provides quick click options for various options on the phone.
- Faster camera - Not a feature you would think matters until you are at a concert or an event trying to get those magical shots and have to wait until the phone refreshes.
- Text to speech - you might have to "twang" to get this to work, but it works!
- Apps Market - While Apple has more apps, the actual app market for Android is way more attractive and fun to use.
There are other
features that Android has over the iPhone, and certainly when it comes to battery life and browsing the Androids are far superior to a Blackberry. So will Android phones someday become dominant in Jamaica. Who knows, but based on the amount of
Android phones for sale in Jamaica on JamDeal, we think it may be picking up.
