Micromax became the leading mobile phone supplier brand in India

According to our latest research from Market Monitor program of Counterpoint Research.  , there were significant changes in the competitive landscape in the second largest mobile phone market on planet.

Some key findings below: 

• Indian mobile phone market grew a modest  2% annually but the smartphone segment grew a handsome 68% annually as demand for feature phones fell 16% annually in Q2 2014
• Majority of growth in smartphone segment during the quarter was driven by long tail of local and other Asian brands operating in this huge market
• Indian brands together captured more than two-thirds of the total mobile phone shipments and more than half of the smartphone shipments
• Micromax became the leading mobile phone supplier brand in India in Q2 2014 for the first time ever surpassing Samsung capturing 17% market share up from 13% in Q1 2014
• Micromax was also the  second largest smartphone vendor closing in on Samsung, capturing 19% share in this fast growing segment
• Micromax has widened the gap with the third largest smartphone player as the race for the third place is up for grabs with fierce competition between Karbonn, Motorola, Celkon, Nokia, Apple and Sony
• Micromax also became the leading feature phone supplier overtaking Nokia for the first time
• Globally, Micromax also jumped up the rankings becoming the tenth largest handset brand in terms of mobile phone shipment volumes
• This is the vendor which mobile industry will have to keep an eye on as it expands beyond domestic markets
• The surprise performance was  from Motorola thanks to its attractive but leaner portfolio of Moto X/G/E and go-to-market strategy. The brand which could soon be part of Lenovo has built a strong base in the high volume India smartphone market, entering the top five rankings surpassing Nokia, Apple, Sony and others
• We will see intensified competition in the Indian smartphone space as Asian OEMs such as Xiaomi, Gionee, Huawei and Asus enter with premium-like hardware at an aggressive price-point attracting young tech-savvy but price-conscious urban buyers
• However, these brands will have to work hard on their brand awareness, distribution and service networkto continue the growth beyond the early spike in demand in this very important mobile phone market

Moto G 16GB Amazon.In Motorola Authorized Service Center State-Wise List In India

Pros

Design
The design of Moto G is the replica of Moto X. Its a tough phone with a good handy size and the back of the phone is a rubber like plastic with a dimple of motorola logo which makes it very comfortable to hold it.It also has a water repellent nano-coating .This doesn't make it water proof, but at least makes it more resistant to the odd spill/splash.

Screen
One of the biggest highlights of the Moto G is its 4.5-inch 720p HD IPS LCD, which works out to a density of 329 pixels per inch i.e sharper than Apple's iPhone 5s, which offers 326ppi.
It has also used Corning Gorilla Glass 3 on the Moto G to protect it from scratches which is usually found on premium devices priced at Rs. 30,000 and above.

Camera
It delivers pretty decent clicks with a 5 mp rear and 1.3 mp front camera with led flash and HD recording.It has a unique feature of slow motion video recording also with other features HDR and Panorama.

Processor & Performance
The Moto G is powered by 1.2GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor with Adreno 305 graphics and 1GB of RAM onboard.The performance is great.It doesn't slows down even with 4-5 background applications running.Even when playing a heavy graphics game like Asphalt-8:Airborne it runs very smoothly.And when i performed a benchmark test by AnTuTu it recorded a score of 11,874 which is pretty close to big phones nexus 4 and Galaxy S III.

Software
One of the best features of Moto G is that it has the lastest android version i.e 4.4 KitKat and that too with a stock android,stock edition users get the latest versions of Android OS immediately they are out, while customized users have to wait months ??? and sometimes a year to get updates to their device.

Battery Life
The 2070 mAh seems low but actually it isn't in the case of Moto G.The battery life of Moto G is pretty decent.With a normal usage it lasted about a day and with heavy usage like playing games,movies with wifi/3g enabled the whole time and calling for 2-3 hours it lasted for about 12-13 hours,which is not bad.

Cons
The only downside of Moto G is that there is no NFC. Although NFC is a pretty cool tech but think about it even if it had would you use it. *NFC is a short-range high frequency wireless communication technology that enables the exchange of data between devices over about a 10 cm distance.

Verdict
At this Price Point, no other phones offer an experience that is as good, so in that sense the Moto G is a Game Changer. I bought it and I definitely recommend you to get it. I was looking for a best sure-shot smart phone to kick start my blog again.

Most issues can be resolved without a repair. Before considering a repair, try visiting the troubleshooting guide for your MOTO G or MOTO X. The support site also contains an extensive list of FAQs on the most common issues that consumers run into.

Google's Chromecast Turn Your Tv Into Smart Tv

Instead of buying an expensive smart TV, you can convert your existing set into a web-enabled entertainment centre by just spending a few thousands of rupees. 

Portable media players 

If you're working on a tight budget, you might want to consider an ultra-portable media player. These thumb-sized sticks, which resemble USB pen drives, are capable of streaming content - pictures, music, videos - wirelessly from a PC, smartphone or tablet to your TV screen (provided you have a Wi-Fi router set up at home). Now there are quite a few brands available in the market, but these are either from companies that have almost no presence in the country, or have been tried by only a handful of people. However, Google's Chromecast ( 3,225) is available online (unofficially at www.ebay.in, www.amazon.in) and it's also easy to use... 

Simply plug in the device into the free HDMI port on your television. 

At the other end, Chromecast also has a micro USB port which needs to be connected to a free USB port on the TV (or an alternative source) to power itself. 

Then, switch to that HDMI source (using the TV remote) and follow the set up instructions to connect to the existing Wi-Fi network in your home. 

Now, install the Chromecast app on your mobile device or PC/laptop and connect to the same wireless network. Run the app and follow the instructions to link the device to the adapter. Once the process is complete, you will be able to 'throw' Full HD videos from YouTube onto your television screen (at present, Chromecast comes with video-on-demand channels like Netflix and Hulu that aren't available in India). However, if you have subscribed to local VoD services like BigFlix, BoxTV, Spuul, NexGTv, you can stream their shows to your big screen. For this, you need to install the Google Cast extension in your Chrome browser which will let you send the tab you are currently watching to your TV. 

Also, there are quite a few free (and premium) mobile apps like EZCast, LocalCast and RealPlayer Cloud that let you stream personal content from your own smartphone and tablet. 

Here are the full specs for the Chromecast: 

• Output: HDMI, CEC compatible
• Processor: Marvell 88DE3005 (Armada 1500-mini) system on a chip
• RAM: 512MB
• Storage: 2GB flash
• Max. Output Video Resolution: 1080p
• Dimensions: 72(L) x 35(W) x 12(H) mm
• Weight: 34g
• Connectivity: 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n
• Power: USB (Power adapter included)
• Supported Devices: Devices running Android 2.3 and higher, iOS 6 and higher, Windows 7 and higher, Mac OS 10.7 and higher, Chrome OS (Chromebook Pixel, additional Chromebooks coming soon). 

With Chromecast, you can easily enjoy your favorite online entertainment on your HDTV—movies, TV shows, music, and more from Netflix, YouTube, Hulu Plus, Google Play Movies and Music, and Chrome. No more huddling around small screens and tiny speakers. Chromecast automatically updates to work with a growing number of apps.

Google Chrome Browser Surpasses IE in U.S. Market

Microsoft's Internet Explorer browser has lost its long-time U.S. market lead to Google Chrome, according to stats published today by Adobe Digital Index (ADI).

ADI, a marketing research arm of Adobe Systems, found that the Chrome browser eclipsed IE in April, with 31.8 percent of U.S. market share vs. IE's 30.9 percent share. Coming in third was Apple's Safari browser, with a 25 percent U.S. market share (see figure). Those browser assessments were based on Web traffic sampling of both desktop and mobile devices, based on data from "10,000 U.S. consumer-facing Web sites in April 2014," according to Adobe's announcement.

 Chrome took the lead because of the proliferation of mobile devices, in which Google's Android and Apple's iOS operating systems predominate. Much lower in the rankings was Mozilla's Firefox browser, with an 8.7 percent U.S. market share in April. ADI noted that Firefox has seen a 20 percent decline over a two-year period, which was "likely due to its lack of mobile presence."

In terms of global stats, the Google Chrome browser reached the No. 1 position last year, according to ADI. However, in terms of pure mobile stats, Apple's Safari browser held the lead.

Microsoft's IE browser still leads in terms of desktop use, according to ADI's analysis. That stat might be attributed to Windows use on PCs, where IE is bundled with Windows by Microsoft as part of the operating system. The old adage used to be that Windows ran on 90 percent of the world's PCs. However, analyst and consulting firm Gartner Inc. has predicted that Windows will just have a 25 percent OS market share by 2016.

Another research effort tracking browser use is Net Applications, with its global Market Share tracking service. It also showed IE in the lead in terms of desktop use at 57.88 percent in April. The Chrome browser was ranked No. 2 at 17.92 percent, followed by Firefox at 17 percent. However, Net Applications' mobile tracking showed a different story. In terms of mobile use, Safari was the leading browser at 48.72 percent, with Chrome at 15.79 percent and IE trailing at 2.11 percent in April.

Power of smartphones in Indian hands

The India smartphone market grew by a whopping 186% year-on-year in Q1 2014, making it the highest growing market in Asia Pacific.

The sharp growth trend is also seen across Asia-Pacific region which, IDC says, will also see a large increase in devices under the BYOD model.

Zodiac Predictions For 2014 By Shri Dharmesh Joshi of Ganesha-speaks.

Aries (21st March to 20th April) 

The year 2014 begins on a positive note for you, and you can be sure of being in an enthusiastic, raring-to-go mode, as the year begins. However, it is still advisable that you go slow. Avoid being impulsive, since there is a possibility of you committing an error of judgement. As far as your love life is concerned, uncertainty and tentativeness may continue to prevail, for most part of the year ahead. In fact, according to Ganesha, love matters may actually become a cause of concern for you. Beware! For this may also cause resultant ripples in your professional life ・leaving you clueless or confused. On your career front, there will be some definite movements ・which may also mean a new assignment, a change that will be, most likely, pleasant. Ganesha also predicts that your career may take an especially positive turn, during the last few months of the year 2014. Financially, you may face problems during 2014, especially as there may be some issues regarding the balance between inflow and outflow of cash. Cut down unnecessary expenditure! 

Taurus (21st April to 21st May) 

Opportunities and challenges are a part and parcel of life. This year, you need to be ready to tackle them both with full and equal enthusiasm. More so, with success some failures are foreseen too in 2014 for you. Be confident, otherwise the setbacks may seem more disappointing than they actually are. Plus, if you lose momentum, you may only take more time to acquire back the momentum. Matters of the heart may be somewhat dull and boring, during the initial few months of 2014. You will also need to put in enough efforts to nurture your relationship and make it stronger. Financial security is of utmost importance to you, and in all likelihood, you will try and trengthen your financial stability in the coming year. The rising value of your investments may be much helpful in this endeavour. As for your career, Ganesha says that you will need to positively accept the change to make your growth as a professional more visible. Success and fame may not come right away, though. Business shall function smoothly. 

Gemini (22nd May to 21st June) 

During the year 2014, you need to take a good care of yourself. Ensure at all times that your health and energy levels are in top shape, or the other aspects of your life may get adversely affected. In the matters of heart, this doesn't seem to be a very exciting year, especially if you happen to be single or unattached at the moment. Occasional romance, flings and flirty exchanges may come your way, but a serious relationship is not on the platter in 2014. However, if you are married or are in a committed relationship, you may have a wonderful time with your beloved ・the going shall be smooth, in short. You will try to strengthen your bond, and shall come closer to each other. In matters other than theses, the planetary positions strongly suggest that you keep a close watch on your finances, or a financial crunch may become unavoidable. Competition on the business front may get fiercer during 2014; hence ensure that you make foolproof strategies. Take career-related decisions only after considering all the pros and cons. A work change may be unavoidable, but avoid furious job-hopping at all costs! 

Cancer (22nd June to 22nd July) 

Family and finances shall take the centre-stage for the better part of the year. If you are single, be prepared to wait for some more time to meet your soul-mate. Well, there will be some romantic encounters but none of them is likely materialise into a serious relationship. Those in a committed relationship may find stars in their favour if they take their relationship to the next level this year. Financially, you will be in a much better position during 2014. On the business front, you may have to take risks to expedite growth. But the decision to push your luck may be a delicate one as your progress is at stake. Look before you leap, advises Ganesha. On the job front, the year ahead may prove to be a favourable one as the planetary alignment indicate that salary increment and promotion are in store for you. You may also consider changing your career altogether. However, don't take an impulsive decision about it. 

Leo (23rd July to 22nd August) 

You may go through some major changes in the coming year and some long-cherished dreams may now be realised. The planetary positions indicate a love affair in your life, so if you have feelings for someone, go ahead and propose to them, and get ready to embark on an amorous, romantic journey. However, for the married ones, the going may get tough this year, especially owing to certain domestic matters, which may cause conflict. The first half of the year is not very favourable for monetary matters too. Ganesha strongly advises you to be careful with your finances, and urges you to banish any thoughts of taking loans to invest in get-rich-quick schemes. On the business front, you may be tempted to push your luck and introduce some experimental strategies. Behold, for the first few months of the year may not be very helpful. However, the scenario may change during the second half of 2014, so you can shift gears then. Be patient! Similar may be the case on the career front. Avoid any impulsive decision regarding your career issues. 

Virgo (23rd August to 22nd September) 

Ganesha predicts that you will kick start the year on a positive note. During the first half of 2014, your love life may blossom. In fact, there is a strong possibility of you falling head over heels in love. If you are married, spend quality time with your spouse and work on your relationship even if there may be no major problems at this point in time. Financially, you will find yourself in a much better position during 2014. However, keep in mind that the outflow of cash may increase after July. Hence, you better create enough cash reserves before that. Plan your budget in such a way that you don't have to ask for monetary help when the expenses shoot up. Since Saturn is transiting through your charts, business growth may be much slower than your expectations. You should avoid risks, and take the tried and tested route on the business front. The transiting Saturn may also affect the job front and slow down your progress. 

Libra (23rd September to 22nd October) 

The planetary alignment indicates that you will have trouble controlling your temper during the year ahead. Be very careful of your words and actions as even petty issues may go out of hand in no time. As far as your love life is concerned, there will some ups and downs during year 2014. Be unbiased and practical while sorting out issues with your beloved, else you will not be able to stop things from going bad to worse. This year, you need to be very clear about how you are going to handle your finances. According to Ganesha, you should pay special attention to your spendings and cash outflow. Whereas for your business, it may prove to be an excellent year. In all likelihood, you will come across lucrative business opportunities. The transiting Jupiter may bring you a favourable period on the career front in the form of a promotion or an increment. Well, be prepared to accept more responsibilities. 

Scorpio (23rd October to 22nd November)

 Ganesha foresees you making sincere efforts to organise your life and be disciplined. However, your hard-work may not fetch expected results. You may wish to propose to someone special and get into a serious relationship. But it is advisable that you first ensure that you two are compatible enough. Some sort of uncertainty may creep in your married life. You may need to handle the relationship very carefully, else the differences may widen the abyss (if any) between you. Financially, you will have a smooth sailing during the year ahead. However, don't take the good times for granted. Besides, a lot will depend on your ability to manage money when expenses shoot up just out of nowhere. The growth of your business may be very slow and disappointing to an extent. On the job front, you may expect rewards and recognition for your hard-work and sincerity. A promotion or an increment is foreseen, but be patient. 

Sagittarius (23rd November to 21st December)

 The first few months of year 2014 may be quite dull. However, things will gradually gain some pace and soon you may find yourself busy with matters related to finance, family and work commitments. The year ahead may prove tricky for your married life as there are chances that you will have a tough time maintaining your loyalty towards your spouse. There may be temptations, instigating you to stray from your relationship path. Watch out! Saturn's transit through the 12th House from your Sign may make it difficult for you to strike a balance between inflow and outflow of cash. Cut down on unnecessary expenditure to dilute the intensity of the issue. Nevertheless, it may be an auspicious period for your business. However, pay enough attention to the financial aspect of your business. At work, you will get a number of opportunities to showcase your skills and creativity, foresees Ganesha. Make the most of this favourable period! 

Capricorn (22nd December to 20th January)

 Workaholic that you are, there is a strong possibility that you may become highly ambitious this year, and may end up putting everything else on the sidelines. This imbalance between your professional and personal life may create a communication gap between you and your loved ones. If you desire to get into a serious relationship, avoid popping the question during the first three months of 2014. Also, the first quarter of 2014 may be rather tricky for those in committed relationships. Hence, handle matters related to your love life tactfully and maturely. In business, you may remain confused about what to do next. Rather than leaving it all to chance, you should trust your abilities and decisions, and take definitive action. The negligible movements and momentum on the work front, though, may make you want to change your job. Ganesha suggests that you should first focus on your current job, and make adjustments according to the demands of your job profile. However, make sure that your co-workers don't take you for granted, or treat as you a pushover. 

Aquarius ( 21st January to 18th February)

 During the course of the year 2014, you may become more open-minded, gaining respect for your changed outlook and attitude. This enhanced positivity will affect all the other areas of your life. Whether you are single or married, you will enjoy a wonderful time on the love front. However, as far as the financial matters are concerned, an average year is foreseen for you. You will end up getting involved in a number of activities to generate more income. But, in all likelihood, only a few of these endeavours will actually increase your income. On the business front, you will chalk out some expansion plans, deciding and itching you to put these plans in practice at the earliest. However, Ganesha advises you to put those plans on hold - as the planets are not favourably aligned for your business. At work, there may be some disappointments and many a times, you may not be rewarded or appreciated for your hard-work and sincerity. But, it is advisable that you stay focussed and objective despite such setbacks. 

Pisces (19th February to 20th March) 

The year ahead may bring some tough challenges for you, but if you channelise your energies in the right direction, you will be able to deal with the tough times in a much better manner. When it comes to matters related to your love life, you hardly listen to anyone. Ganesha suggests that you should utilise the year ahead to resolve your love life related issues. Financial matters too shall be handled carefully. Plan your expenses, set a budget for them and avoid shopping sprees by all means, and you will be just fine. Business may fetch substantial profits, and it is recommended that you save some money now, instead of pumping them back in the business. The savings will help you absorb losses or lower profits nicely. As for your career, Ganesha predicts that things may drastically change post June 2014. If you are offered a job that requires you to relocate to another city, check all the pros and cons of your decision, before accepting the offer and making a major move.
