According to the market experts, Apple is going to revolutionize mobile commerce by including NFC (Near-Field Communication) technology in upcoming iPhone 5. This technology incorporates information of financial accounts and ties that data to specific devices. That means iPhone 5 will allow you to use it for making payments as a virtual credit card.

NFC technology considered as more secure technology than RFID and other touchless technologies because it works at a range of four to five inches via point of sale scanners. It is also in discussion that apple could put this system in all version of its iPhones in future. Normally owners of iPhones are typically heavy users of data and upscale demographics of these users make them desired target for businesses.

It’s a revolutionary step of Apple that will customize the shopping practices of iPhone users and will allow them the opportunity to utilize their iPhone in more effective way. It’s also a great opportunities for companies who can increase their profits. Retailers who still do not have NFS scanners would need to switch to new terminals so that they could also get the advantage of this technology.

Though iPhone users have already been using various types of applications for ecommerce and payments, but after the inclusion of NFC in iPhone 5, the mobile commerce will become more easy and effective for the users. But it will not decrease the importance of iPhone applications because these applications have turned the world in to the pocket size Hub.

So the iPhone users and shopping lovers should be ready to experience another revolutionary move of Apple.

With the rumours of the new iPhone 5 very much round the corner, iPhone continues to play along the expectations of its users and its community worldwide. As per the rumours, Apple is planning to have a bigger screen than before and a much better camera and a step backwards with an added physical keyboard.

Though Apple are reported to have been recently working on three iPhone 5 prototypes and are constantly working to make sure that they regain their top-position amongst the smart phone industry once again.

Despite Android’s latest development in the smart phone industry share, the iPhone 5 with a 4-inch screen and a ‘competitive camera’, as they call it, of somewhere between 8 mega pixels to 12 mega pixels can very easy blow away all models of the Google Android phones and can also very well stay in pace with the future versions of the competitor. An added advantage to kick away the competition is of course the physical keyboard that slides off from underneath.

A physical keyboard to manage along with a virtual touch one is kind of a confusing move from Apple. The iPhone has always stayed in strong contention of the smoothness of its ocean that it enjoys, yet Apple happens to be following suite to what their competition is trying to do as Physical keyboards, bigger screens and better mega pixel cameras is what the Android has to offer for long.

Let us just wait and watch whether iPhone can actually throw the Android off the sail with such crazy developments.

1. So much for iPhone enjoying the Blue Ocean

iPhone, unlike any other, has enjoyed its due success in the Blue Ocean for quite a while. In fact, the Blue Ocean strategy has been its core competency when it comes to innovativeness. But, no matter what happens, the Blue Ocean doesn’t seem to be as good an option for iPhone anymore as it used to be as one point in time.

With reports of Android phones matching the sales of iPhone and many people moving to Blackberry and Android despite the standing difference between the brand images; the lull of the Blue Ocean is finally becoming irritating for iPhone.

There have been reports that Apple is currently working of a cheaper version of the iPhone as well as a dual mode CDMA/GSM phone and a universal SIM. The cheaper phone, as heard, would be priced at $200. This assures that Apple would have to pull the strings when it comes to the profit margin on the iPhone; which indeed are the highest in the industry today.

A basic marketing rule suggests that pricing your product high ensures high quality and a product of high prestige too. This has worked wonders already for a substantial amount of time for the Apple and iPhone, but a recent stance by people at Apple suggests that like every other product in any industry whatsoever, Apple is actually becoming part of the Red Ocean.

A recent analysis suggested that a clone of the Apple iPhone 4 would cost them at least $178.45. I doubt how much is Apple ready to sacrifice for its dominance. Let’s just wait and watch.

Despite the fact that Nielsen reports sales of Android phones heating up and exceeding that of the Apple iPhone, Google has been once again found to be proving that they one step ahead of Apple Inc.Apple has been long talked regarding its recent developments in the iPhone 4 and the kind of distinction they provide the iPhone user. The stand-out feeling of the Apple iPhone has not been a key factor only but their consistency in innovation and product development has been matchless. Despite the fact that Apple has being quite proactive, sales of the Google Android phones have exceeded that of the iPhone. According to a recent study conducted by Nielsen, smart phones purchase in the last six months have shown 43 percent to be Google Android based whereas the iPhone and Blackberry phones follow with 26 and 20 percent respectively. Now, one has the feeling that lead that Google Android has gained over the iPhone was not enough; we are able to find a number of Google software on the Apple Store today. Google Shopper that identifies bar codes and assists users in shopping is now available on the Apple Store. All of a sudden we find Google being smart enough to realize that they have targeted iPhone with their Android phones and would rather consider to earn more being part of the iPhone. This is something that is straight-away out of the text book. Is it that staying too much out of the textbook is hampering Apple Inc, or is it that Google is utilizing the textbook quite effectively? Lets see how Apple bounces back to this; we all would be waiting!!!
