iOS Phone Browsing Market Share iOS Phone Chrome Already Claims 1.5% of Market Share

This isn’t something to be sneezed at. Chrome for iOS which was released more or less a month ago is now claiming 1.5% of mobile internet browsing. Safari still rules the roost with 85.1% of market share, other??? equates to 13% share. On that stat if you have still yet to give Opera mobile a try you should do. Yes, it’s based on webkit like safari and chrome yet so many neat speed features INCLUDING data compression out of the box to make the most of data packages.

Reviewed : MacAlly L-Dock Foldable iPhone Synch / Charging Dock3

I’ve come to realise I’m one of those people who have a slightly OCD to keep their iPhone in it’s best conditions possible. The slightest dink or blemish on my gear and somehow that’s all I can see when I look at my idevice which seems to get disproportionally bigger with each glance. As much as I try to place my phone down on my desk with care, occasionally in a rush, not as much care is taken as should be. This leads me nicely onto the MacAlly L-Dock which is a portable, Foldable iPhone Synch / Charging Dock.

Reviewed : Google Nexus 7 Android tablet

Admittedly, the Nexus 7 needs a 3G version for true data portability, an absence which might deter some. Likewise, it can’t match the media choices of Apple or Amazon and it won’t give the massive battery life of an e-ink reader either. Even so, the Nexus is good enough to make it a logical choice for anyone thinking about a smaller tablet for reading or watching video while out and about, and it’s a steal at the price.

Mountain Lion Golden Master (GM) Released

To think that 6 months ago we didn’t know Mountain Lion even existed and now the GM has been released.  The Golden Master is pretty much Apple’s equivilant of a final release candidate and barring any real last minute issues, will be the same as what we get upon release.

This means DNS changes and some rather big data shifting. So over the weekend you might not be able to access EssentialMac but rest assured we’re pushing this along just as fast as we can.

iOS Devices Account For 65% Of All Mobile Browsing

It’s coming probably as no surprise to anyone that iOS devices take up the Lion share of all internet browsing.  I can vaguely remember what the internet “was like” in a pre iPhone era.  Who else remembers running Opera mobile on phones that ran some semblance of Java?  Sure my HTC Touch Diamond fared better yet it was still an odd affair, layouts broken and slow.  That’s what you get for purchasing a phone with a USP of windscreen wipers going across the screen when it was going to rain on the weather app.
