With the Apple iphone 4’s record breaking sales figures and the continous stream of similar mobile phones flooding in to the market, the word again on everyone’s lips seems to be “Smartphone”.

So why is everyone going crazy for these clever little phones? Is it the enticing deals that come with them, such as a free games console or, 40-inch TV? Or is it the flashy screens, abundant memory, or thousands of apps?

Well when people think of the Smartphone the word “apps” is not far behind.  Apple, Android and Windows offer hundreds of thousands of apps between them, some of which have the ability to turn mobile phones with similar specs in to a completely different experience.

Nowadays with all the major companies jumping on the Smartphone bandwagon Smartphones could soon become more of a commodity than a fashion statement.

The scope for development is almost limitless. With such intense competition, huge investments are constantly being made by some of the titans in the tech industry such as Google, Windows, and Apple.

It’s only a matter of time before the next Smartphone developments rock our world yet again. Will the phone become your new PC, TV and Tablet all in one? Only time will tell. The possibilities are infinite!

The mobile phone manufacturer nokia, has reported in quarter 1  Smartphone sales are up by 57%.

A few months ago I spoke about smartphones and how the sales are increasing each month. The latest news from Nokia shows exactly that, they have reported a57% increase in smartphone sales, to 21.5 million units, for the quarter ended 31 March 2010.

Here’s a few more facts:

• Net sales of 9.5bn euros up 3% year on year, but down 21% on the previous quarter
• Services revenues were up 8% year on year to 6.7bn euros, down 19% on quarter four 2009
• Average selling price was 62 euros, down from 64 euros a year earlier

Nokia CEO, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, said: ‘In Q1, Nokia delivered both year-on-year net sales and operating profit growth. We continue to face tough competition with respect to the high end of our mobile device portfolio, as well as challenging market conditions on the infrastructure side.

‘During the quarter, we also demonstrated our ability to deliver the Nokia smartphone experience to consumers on a global scale, with our smartphone shipments up by more than 50% year-on-year. The consumer response to the inclusion of our walk and drive navigation offering on our smartphones has been tremendous. Since launching in January, 10 million Nokia smartphone users around the world have downloaded the offering.

‘In infrastructure, Nokia Siemens Networks’ profitability benefited from a positive sales mix in Q1. I am also pleased to see encouraging results from the company’s focus on helping operators meet the challenge of the rapid growth in data and signalling traffic from smartphones.

Sales show more and more people are buying Smartphones and proving Smartphones are not just business phones, then are for pleasure as well.

So how do class a Smartphone, as a Smartphone? Well, it needs to have the following 3 features, push email (email as and when it happens), full QWERTY keyboard (on-screen and off) and you should be able to use applications.

As you can see these aren’t scary features, they are features that are appearing in more and more phones.
