Personally I've always loved and dealt with Sony Ericsson. They changed they game with the walkman. I don't really have an issue with Xperia ray but I doubt it has HTML5.Any phone you buy now should have it so you don't have to play the catch up game. Opera mini also has another product,opera mobile which is better than mini in many aspects.Disclosure,haven't used the ray but I have an Xperia on windows.Either if you can't access opera mobile from your current phone the upgrade will be good.

Snapshot of how I see smartphones in Kenya. Sony Ericsson,now sony is and I believe will always be Kenya's "iPhone".Biased maybe.People have problems syncing their iPhones. Samsung will replace Nokia as the phone everyone has but Nokia has an opportunity. Its recent,runs on windows phone 7/8. Its has fewer apps and fewer viruses but Kenyans have a long relationship with Nokia. Be careful though,windows mobile,windows phone 7 and windows phone 8 all have different aspects to them but the direction windows phone 8 is taking is more permanent.Safer bet. I don't like talking about blackberrys.

html5 is a powerful standard. Gives more options to both the individual and the developers. It can be used to make apps for all phones that have rather than one app for each phone. With html5,you can also manage better how smartphones interact with websites without changing so much of the website. Its basically less powerful than apps on the phone but more inclusive for both desktop and smartphone.

iPhones,to the majority is a completely new technology.Its admired but not out there enough for everyone to understand its potential.You are so right about windows phone 7 upgrade to windows phone 8. Windows has been changing approaches but windows phone 8 is more in tune with windows 8.

Sony's are around but not so much.That's where they get their "prestige" from. They are also perceived to be complicated but with android,not so much.

What type of document?

Think of the broader market,how many Kenyans even if you were to give them an iPhone would know what iTunes is.People like Sony,they just don't want to understand it. It then becomes perceived as something different even though it might not be.But I bet you'll start seeing Xperias more often. Then again,maybe I'm biased

Kenyans with iPhones would know,what about the others.What electronics don't they make from satellite parts to tvs
