Android Applications Warriors Ranked in CES 2011

The Android applications store is perhaps the biggest reason for the great business that Android phones are doing. Globally, this miracle Google mobile OS has almost taken over the mobile industry. Perhaps one of biggest factors in this great race was the OHA. The Open Handset Alliance is a cooperative market monopoly coalition of some of the biggest names in mobile telecom. Brought together by Google on the 5th of November 2007, their cooperative performance gave Android phones much more variety over their competitors.

When Google’s mobile OS arrived in the market in 2007, other giants like Blackberry, iPhone, Nokia, and Symbian already had great smart phone OSs. Google strategically involved handset manufacturers like Samsung, LG, Motorola, HTC, Dell, and Sony Ericsson to use their product. To boost their technology capability, they involved Intel, Nvidia and, other processor manufacturers like Media Tek. Soon, the Android applications became more popular than other competing products. The battle between Android apps v/s iPhone apps soon became the talk of the industry.

CES is the biggest technology fair in the world. The biggest names in the industry come together to launch their products at this annual event.  Let’s check out the official CES list of 2011′s top ranking Android phones:

The LG Optimus 2X – This is a much awaited model from LG. The Optimus 2X is set to become a popular gadget. It has GPRS, EDGE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, 3G HSDPA, and GPS.
