      Microsoft is better off focusing on their tablets and bringing more developers to write apps for the microsoft app store or use progressive web apps.

      U guys got a point but, I think you already know how lost Lumia users must feel, i had one myself, the windows mobile os didn't fully used device's hardware potential, making it less competent than Android and iOS plus the lack of apps and user access of apps. It was like Installing puppy Linux(lite version of Linux) on a gaming pc. They lost customer's loyal and expectations (well at least mine). They should have made it open source like Android or convince devs like Apple. I have used these three mobile os but I am disappointed with windows.

    There could be two big things that could change the game entirely.
    1) X86 Windows in phones. Maybe a light 32bits version. And the phone replacing the laptop with a dock or something like this.
    2) Android in laptops or full ARM pcs. I think a powerfull SOC, maybe a Cortex a73 Octa-core with a powerfull pc like graphics. If Google craft a Android PC version like them did with Android TV, Wear or Auto, something like Remix OS, they can bite a big piece of market. Android PC in ARM pcs can be sell cheaper than X86 and can be used in home or office/work/Enterprise.
    I cannot understand why Google delay the natural step to pcs/laptops for android.

    Ubuntu has convergence. The same Ubuntu operating system and universal apps across all platforms, phone, table, laptop, pc and server. If they get a high profile hardware partner that ships a powerful enough convergent device they could break in. That said I don't think that most of their apps have a sufficient mobile interface yet and the platform is very reliant on web apps which is a double edged sword.

    • @mikosoft
      @mikosoft 7 ปีที่แล้ว +21

      Most of all, Ubuntu is Linux. Not based on Linux kernel like Android, it's actually a Linux distribution. Pretty much no app works on Linux that people use regularly (apart from web browser). And yes, they had a short lived advantage of Convergence but there was no marketing push and MS already does it with the apps that people actually use so I'm afraid Ubuntu's advantage at this stage is pretty much annihilated.

      No, no, no. Few programs that people commonly use are available for Linux. What is available are alternatives - better or (mostly) worse. I'm not even a Word/Excel expert to see that OpenOffice/LibreOffice is no match. Ditto Photoshop vs. GIMP. I won't even start with multimedia creation.

MacOS isn't even in the competition. With apple's closed ecosystem and sky high product prices, its application and reach will always be limited. Google diversity and openness is its key to success.

It's lighter, better battery life, smaller form factor, doesn't overheat, charges much faster, and costs so much less it's not even a comparison.

      Hard thing about that is there's compromises that have to be made. if it's crowdfunded, or open source, it'll be a lot more like android than ios. ios performs well because of the "walled garden" that they are with their hardware and a few tricks with animations and sensitivity.
      You'd have to know exactly what the hardware configurations would be for the devices, and somehow get it optimized between several developers if it's programmed in a crowdfund/open source kind of way.

Yesterday I got an LG G6 android phone, and I'd love to use Google's services like voice search, the app and play but it's frickin' annoying that they need permission to spy on you to do so. Even in chrome, it will inevitably show your previous searches unless you opt out altogether, which is why I've always stuck with firefox.

      Well, on an iPhone you can't install apps while you're offline, no matter if it's a web app or a traditional app. On Android you could theoretically sideload apps, but for the majority of users 'no internet' already equals 'no apps', so that game's lost already.
      And as for "stored on a remote server" - what do you think where apps from the Play Store/App Store reside? Right, remote servers. Then you download them and install them locally. Same for progressive web apps - they're on a remote server, then you open them once, they install/cache themselves and from then on you don't need an internet connection to use them.
      I agree about curretn web protocols not being here forever though. But as for that - changing one app/service to a new protocol/platform/system is probably better than migrating 20 different services to the new distribution system, whatever it'll be...

Where they can really do well is in home automation. I love coming home and saying "Alexa, lights on" and it just does it. :) However, when the net is out, or AWS are out, the Echo is completely useless..
    It's also fun to turn the living room lights off from the bedroom and drive my wife crazy, who then in turn turns the bedroom lights back on... Then that goes on for a few minutes. :D

It's just a nice system, although WP10 still needs some work. If it were more popular and more Developers would use Windows developer tools to port their apps, it would be while different story. I'm sad that I have to leave Windows behind for now, but excited that I'll be able to do much more.

      It's not just Android by itself either.

      My first phone was the Galaxy S3 in 2013. The longer I had it, the more I hated it. It got slower and slower and the phone itself was ugly and I still think Samsung's phones are pretty terrible looking. I've heard that Samsung and Touchwiz have come a long way but there are so many android phones to choose from that Samsung is at the bottom of my list. Sorry, not sorry. I'm aiming more towards budget phones to get away from contracts because they're very expensive in Canada and I don't really need a $1000 phone. :P

      Not really.
      They allow it because Google is in the business of advertising. All the apps developed are just a way to build an audience. Their business model is audience aggregation. It is like Facebook, they give Facebook for free while in return having a huge audience to market to.
      As far of the reason - Apple and Google collaborated for a long time. However, you see it wrong. It is not that Google allows Apple to use the apps. It is that Apple wants to use Google apps.
      For every Google app there, there are many alternatives, some better than others. GMail, GDrive, all of them have strong competitors and are not hard to replace. However, when Apple uses Google apps, Google gets access to the customers for advertising purposes.
      It is not like Apple is doing Google a favor but people tend to see this in reverse. Google benefits from Apple a lot more than Apple benefits from Google. In the end, both parties earn money from this but as someone who is in the industry, bringing one billion potential IOS devices to Google (active number of IOS devices) is a far better ROI than bringing GMail, GDocs and Google Maps.
      I wouldn't say that Google would die without Apple but it is the main strategic partner.

      Reason 2: Apple at Google's mercy? Try the other way around. Last quarter alone Apple made 106% of the Mobile industries profits. 106%! That shouldn't even be possible.... but it's be that way for a decade now.

    Cloud based is great until it isn't and you have a massive breach of security. No, what's needed is a consolidation and something to deal with Patent Trolls and security breaches. Most apps are already ported insecure 'web apps.' Personally, I prefer 'real' Apps which is often where Google often falls flat.
    There have been other better OSes but without support have failed. Alternatively, if existing companies like Google, Apple, Microsoft merge you have antitrust issues.

      Massive breaches of security have happened on our desktop hardware that are largely clones. Often by exploiting our idiot status in not keeping it updated or being duped in to installing viruses . I'd feel safer with fewer people having access to the server code behind the firewall to figure out how to hack it and dedicated professionals watching over it.

    As a software engineer I'd like to chip in a little bit on the apps front. What we see today is that an increasing number of apps are getting very simple. At least the bit of them you have installed on your phone. Many of them are today just essentially a rest interface connected to a cloud app that does all the important stuff. I think we will move further and further towards this, considering that the networks are getting faster, cheaper and more stable; with 5G being tested by operators this year.
    And when they're built like that you can create the platform specific app in a manner of days, and focus your resources on the cloud where you don't care what platforms your users are on.
    This means that we rely less and less on the actual OS. This change however is different to what we've seen before in that it's not a game changer in any way. Apple and google are on board, in fact google leads the way. But it will also mean that it will be easier to develop for other platforms, I think this is where samsung is hoping to get in the game. I would not be surprised if they will launch their own linux based mobile OS in about 5 years.

      Agree, it makes sense for developers to have fuller control of their software and the hardware it's running on, Apple's philosophy. There'll be cost and power benefits too: we're all currently carrying about hardware that's barely used most of the time, (other than to run down the battery running down excessive programs in standby). Centralising it would be like the electricity grid, only bigger and better at smoothing out the supply and demand to run even more efficiently on smaller resources.
      There might be resistance where people are invested intellectually in their current software, but we've already seen Microsoft, Windows & Office adapt away from that business model. Even though it made Gates's fortune they saw the writing on the wall and reacted with Bing & Windows 10. Besides, all you'd need are emulators on the server side to run your legacy Android apps etc, faster and without choking up the resources on your old, bloated, hardware.
      Device manufacturers would see the biggest threat as there'd be less reason to update your gadgets so often, though screens, cameras and gimmicks like nfc already do more to sell phones.

      Actually the main part of android is open source and the core is actually linux. And there are other variations based on android that are fully open source but still support android apps. Also the main part of Google Chrome is open source, so Microsoft could rebuild edge on it and Chrome OS is mostly Google Chrome on a Linux system. So there is (at least in Google products) a ton of open source software and Microsoft just joined that behaviour and got one of the biggest contributors to open source projects. So actually open source is a serious competitor in some way.

      Well it's a class of operating system kernel called a microkernel, which you can tell from looking at the code or taking expert opinions, and because of that it means it gets high modularity. The operating system can load drivers for a touch screen, or drivers for an automatic car and be the exact same os. It's the expert's that are saying because of this modularity and because of the fact that google is attempting to get into computers and phones, that Andromeda OS is designed for computers and phones. If you look at the code you can already see that it has drivers for desktop graphics in dart, and they are currently porting dart over to android as well. You can read more on this from just about any tech news website, but here is IMO the best source

    This is one of the best videos I've seen from this channel. Indeed if we're talking about the future , I see the web as an all-pervading platform that is compatible and runs the same across all operating systems. Not to mention the cloud and its associated apps and services. I am not sure where I heard this rumor , or whether it was about Marshmallow or Nougat , but Android was supposed to herald a feature that allowed users to play with an app on an as-needed basis. For example , I use Flashify to flash ROMs on my Samsung and mods on my Galaxy Note 3. The same can be done using CWM / TWRP recovery too , but the convenience of being able to make a Nandroid backup of your entire phone without having to switch it off and turning it back on is a real gem. And depending on what your smartphone manufacturer , what the UI is like , what apps are installed , you know that backups can take half an hour or more. I have fallen for your / ASUS's idea of one device i.e. convergence since 2014. But I wasn't able to lay my hands on any such device.

    While economic considerations are a reality, there’s another major factor.
    At this point, only one OS is being used in large numbers, that is NOT a variety of UNIX. Windows. Even Android uses a variety of Linux under its user interface.
    The reason for this is not obvious, but makes sense when you think about it. Windows is still prevalent, but is in a shrinking market share position (I know, Windows fans are choking). The reason for this is the basic internal architecture of Windows. Which is actually quote primitive, and this is leading to a law of diminishing returns, in terms of where computing is going into the future.
    For example, because all process calls are tagged to a user call, Windows servers have to load a separate copy of an app, for each user that wants to use the same app.This is called non-re-entrancy. All true UNIX systems, have re-entrancy, which means 14-users can use the same app, with only one copy in memory.
    This, and many other system level OS functions, place UNIX in general in a increasing growth mode. It is slow, but continuous, and cannot be held off forever by our friends at Microsoft. This is the main reason for the recent actions at MS to position themselves in data-retrieval, cloud-computing, and in a fairly recent development (the last 10-15 years) they have finally attempted to compete in the hardware computing space.
    They won’t publicly admit it, but they know the salad days of Windows dominance is waining. To stay solvent, they’re moving to other areas of the computing business. That too is forced by economics. Their actual profits from Windows, and software dependent on it, is shrinking; all proven by the decline in Windows system sales for a number of years, continuously without much deviation.

      I think that Microsoft is working on a completely new OS as a long project and thats why windows 10 is going to be the last major windows release. It will probably take at least 5 more years if not more but i think. They must realize too that Windows is now a primitive OS and not very much more can be accomplished with the old windows NT kernel. Hell with some modification you can even get windows 2000 to run most modern windows programs which shows how little has been truly changed
      Whatever microsofts new OS ends up being i dont think it will be called windows and if it is it wont be based on NT like 10 and 7 are. It will be a really long game though to replace windows NT considering how many programs will need porting over etc

    Regarding convertibles: There is no real hint that we're close to any of these convertibles going mainstream.
    There's just no need, there's too much compromise. Sure, an iPad might one day become capable enough that an ultra thin MacBook isn't needed, or even a MacBook Pro is unnecessary, but then you'll still also want pocket-sized device, or a device you can wear on your wrist.
    If it eventually becomes possible to converge everything, so you could build a watch that you can take off, unroll into a tablet and then dock into a "desktop" setup. But I want to know: what's the point? To have your information everywhere? Google, Microsoft and Apple are all working to solve that problem right now, and it's largely solved. The kinks will get worked out much sooner than some kind of futuristic device which can morph into all form factors.
