Bahamian Business Trends 2013

First look at BBM for Android.

BBM is finally crossing platforms in an attempt to save the ever dwindling brand. The video below by BlackberryOS.com shows BBM in beta (testing) phase on a HTC First, ofcourse running android OS. 

I can't help but think it may be to late for Blackberry and BBM. From what I've seen they haven't really added any new outstanding features. In my opinion this move will hurt more than heal. With BBM being now available on other platforms what is there to keep the Blackberry users locked in, other than being die-hard loyal? We'll see when its officially launched. Until then have a look at BBM running on Android.

Galaxy isn't the only phone in the Galaxy

The argument can be made that the Samsung brand may produce the 'best' smart phones in the market. I know that many people have a different opinion other than this. It is quite clear however, that Samsung is now establishing it's self as the most popular of the bunch.
Zach Esptien of www.bgr.com says Apple was crushed by Samsung in the second quarter. Apple moved 31.2 million units while Samsung flooded the world with 71 million units. 

The new flagship for Samsung is the Galaxy S4. It was released globally April 2013 and with only two months in sold 23 million units as at the end of Q2.

Then of course their is the iPhone 5 which comes with its sensational retina display, and voice control (siri) and a sleek sexy design.

Behind the top dogs are some exceptionally great phones. Lets look at the Motorola Moto X has been in the buzz for sometime now and is recognized for being highly customizable. On top of that design is pretty plush considering the 4.7 gorgeous screen. Its overall a very fast, sleek, fun smartphone.

Lumia 1020 is a remarkable phone by Nokia that offers the best camera of them all. With a 41 mega-pixel cam, photo's have never been so crisp phone a smart phone. We can't forget a 1.5 dual core snapdragon processor. (That means its realllyy fast). The OS is Windows Phone 8, which in my personal opinion is a very clean and smooth n pretty interface. Its just taking the OS some time to catch up to the competition.

The HTC One is an awakening giant. It's 1.7 Quad Core Snapdragon and its candy-bar touch screen form wrapped in an aluminium shell makes its so attractive. 

Personally I'm begging to really like Lumia and the windows phone 8 platform? What do you'll like?

Apple season around the corner

If you haven't heard already, Apple is getting set to release its latest versions (yes that was with an s) of the ever popular iPhone. They're the 5s and the speculated 5c. 
The official announcement is set for September 10, 2013. Only then will we know for sure exactly what it is apple has in store with these new versions. However, we do have "rumoured" info. ;)

If we look at Apple's pattern they seem to always tweak the original version a little and add a 's' on the name e.g. 3g, 3gs, 4, 4s, 5, and now of course the 5s. It looks as if nothing has changed with the overall design but it is rumoured that the 5s will have colour options for the back. This is definitely bringing some flavour to their line up.The storage capacity has jumped, 5s is said to be available with up to 128gb of storage and they're also rolling out with a 12 mega-pixel camera and even possibly iOS7. The 5s looks to be very well polished and will more than likely be another hit!


The new kid on the block will be the 5c (if its released that is). Apple's VP Schiller has dismissed the rumours of the cheaper, budget version of the 5 saying "Some manufactures use cheap smartphones as a replacement for feature phones, but this is not Apple's product development direction". With that being said, more and more information and photos seem to be popping up raising speculation. If it is released, its said that it will come with a plastic covering and will come in colours. It will have mainly all the specs of the 5 but will be cheaper because of its plastic covering.

In my personal opinion if the 5c does drop apple may get a big jump in users simply because more people can afford the mega mogul that is iPhone.  I do think that the true members will not buy into it. Maybe they're #TeamIphoneCheap Who knows, like I said its all rumoured and until September 10th, the world may never know.

The Inception

Peek's concept is to give you all a "peek" (of-course) into a young vibrant mind that has so many thoughts and ideas. To provide all of the incite, opinion, logic and theory on everything around the world in this day and age; from international headlines to local happenings and non-sense, sports, and technology. All at the expense of my venting and probably your entertainment. Here we go!
