This was actually released in the last couple of months of 2011. Its widely popular sale has made it one of the best selling devices for 2012 as well. It made this list because it continues to sell in high volumes every single month, as this is highly rated in terms of available smart phones. It wore this crown alone until the recent release of another rival product.

5. Samsung Galaxy S3

This product was able to knock Apple off the top of the pile for awhile. Its release in July had the top carriers scrambling for more units. They were selling out faster than the products could be shipped to replace them. The latest Galaxy has turned the ideas of the Apple OS being better than the Android OS around. In one smartphone, Samsung has leveled the playing field and created one of the highest selling for and highly demanded phones in some time.

6. Apple TV

Again this is not something that was necessarily released within this year, but its popularity seems to have taken off within this year exclusively. The third generation of the Apple TV dropped in June of 2012, and was highly regarded and well received. It certainly gave the Roku 2 XS a run for its money. This is a very similar set up to that of the Roku, though there are other styles as well. This allows for the streaming of content from iTunes, Netflix, YouTube and many more.

This is likely slightly more popular than the Apple TV, though the numbers are very similar. There are specific features that the Roku offers that the Apple device does not.

While it was never specified a tablet, this does just about everything a tablet can (surf internet, stream video, and more) for a lower price tag.

The Last Two

The last two top selling electronics, gadgets and devices would be the Sharp Freestyle Aquos TVs which offer the impressive Sharp HD television experience in a portable version and the Motorola Droid Razr Maxx. This impressive device took everything good about the Droid Razr and improved on it, including all day battery life and a learning computer to recognize your voice and respond to your commands.

Get To Know Siri

Siri is one of the latest innovations to the iPhone line. She is a helpful aid that can allow you to do a number of things effortlessly. However, you have to know how you can use her to ensure you are getting the most out of your new assistant.

Walk Her Through It

You can tell Siri who people are within your contact list to better the phone’s understanding and your ease of use. For example you can specify something like Megan is my wife and Alex is my brother. That way when you tell Siri to text your brother a message, she can bring up Alex’s information.

Where Are You

You need to tell her about the locations you frequent as well. Her system can remind you of something when you are leaving work, when you get home, when you get to the grocery store and more. You simply have to add these locations to the database so that she can do what you ask without any trouble.

Creating A Language

Many do not realize the smart keyboard that exists with the iPhone. From the settings menu, find Keyboard under General and choose to Add New Shortcut. You can add in series of letters that are indicative of a phrase or a number of other short hand responses to save you time and effort.

Tweeting Quickly

On the iPhone you can actually tweet from a number of locations once you have added the account under settings. You can not only tweet from Safari (the browser) but you can also tweet things from YouTube, Maps, Photos and Camera.

Locking Screen Orientation

Sometimes you do not want the screen flopping back and forth between landscape and portrait. While this is convenient at times, at other times it is better for a stationary display that does not react to different angles. Double click the home key to bring up a menu along the bottom. Choose the icon that shows a lock with an arrowed line circling it.

Keyboard Tricks

If you tap the space bar twice while typing, the iPhone places a period at the end of the sentence and capitalizes the next word. If you were to long press letters on the virtual keyboard, it will bring up special characters including foreign alphabet letters.

Add Websites To Home

If you are looking at a page in Safari and want to do more than bookmark it, you can add it to your home screen. You do this by clicking the Go To button on the screen and clicking to add it to the screen.

Screenshots

Many people are unaware of how to take screenshots with their iPhone. All you need to do is to hold down the home button and then simply press the sleep button on top of the device. This will cause a flash on the screen and the image will be a part of your Camera Roll.

Swipe To Delete

You can quickly and easily delete voice mails, emails, and texts without ever opening them. When you see them labeled on the screen, simply swipe along the message box and then select the delete button when it pops up.

These of course are just a few helpful tips to ensure that you are getting the most out of your device. While there are hundreds more that you can learn, these should help you to better appreciate all that your iPhone is able to do for you.

Well you don’t have to be a super-computer-genius to do that. Here are the top 10 methods used to make your computer’s performance much much better.

10. Get an Antivirus

Believe it or not, there are many people who are using internet without using an anti virus and yes that sounds creepy. This is the most simple and well known way to speed up your computer more and thus it stands at number 10.

An anti-virus does not only inspect and eliminate viruses from your computer, but it also blocks them from attacking again on your PC. If you have got a good anti-virus, no need to worry about any viruses infecting your computer. The anti-virus does it all you just sit and enjoy using your computer and surf internet free of all worries. And if you want a recommendation, Norton is on my top list.

9. Optimize Windows

Windows might look cool with some extra effects like wall paper changer and different shadows and opacity and transparency but most importantly you cannot imagine how much system speed it utilizes. These things should better be unselected if you want to make you p faster. Now it all depends upon you whether you want to make your computer faster by compromising on the cool look or not.

You can always turn this cool and amazing look on and off simply by opening control panel, and then opening the properties of the system, then advanced settings and then deselecting the extra effects like shadows and opacity, in Xp and 7 respectively.

8. Get an External Hard Disk Drive

You might have noticed one thing, when you format all the drives and do fresh windows your computer’s speed is at its peak. Then you start adding stuff to the hard disk drives and the system starts becoming slow. This happens because as you keep on adding things and filling up the drives it adds load on the system as it has to read all the data all the time in order to provide quick search results to you. So more data slows down the system, and thus I suggest an external hard drive. You cannot use it for the installed programs of course, but you can put the extra videos, music and pictures which you don’t use frequently. This will help running your programs faster. To see how much data is stored on the hard drive you can right click on it and open its properties. There it shows a pie chart displaying the free space in blue.
Always keep a check on the free space on the hard drive. And do not put extra load on your pc if you want it to work fast.

7. Add a RAM

Ram makes a computer much faster. Just buy a new ram and insert it on the mother board and I bet you will feel the difference. What makes a RAM (random access memory) is a special operating system component which is known as VMM (Virtual memory manager).

When you are using a program such as internet browser or a game, the processor of the computer extracts the executable files from the hard drive and then injects it into ram. More programs require more memory. If you have a ram of 128 MB and you are running programs which are consuming more memory than 128 MB then of course the load on the RAM will be much and thus it will slow down the system. So in order to overcome this slow speed you have to upgrade the PC with another ram. I know it costs some bucks but believe me once you invest you will not regret it.

I will suggest that go ahead and get one more ram if you really want to make your computer faster.

6. Turn off all unnecessary Startup Applications

There are a lot of programs that think that they should be kept running in the background. There are many programs as such. A few of them among them are those which we want to use in the background, like the ant viruses. But there are others like Skype, windows messenger, Yahoo messenger etc, etc.

I will suggest you to turn off such unnecessary apps and programs which you do not use in order to boot faster. You can use MS Configuration tool for that. To open MS CONFIG just open “run” and type MSCONFIG in it and then hit enter. It will show you a list of programs that launch at your system start up. Uncheck the ones you use rarely. Then it will ask you to restart your system. Restart the computer and feel the difference.

Yes, one more important thing that needs to be mentioned here is only turn off those programs which you recognize. There are many applications of the Start up that are essential components of the windows. Do not turn them off , or even if you do, do not blame me that I corrupted your operating system.

5. Get Rid of Pesky Spyware

Here are some ways you might have received Spyware

i.    Most of the files and music sharing programs like Kazaa install some sort of spyware to the system. They might not tell you or they might do in the license agreement which most people don’t read.

ii.    Many links say that you have won something and click the link to receive your prize, all these things are just ways to give you a special prize of Spyware on your system which will slow down your PC. Or some sites might say that download some special player to play a specific song or visit the site. I advise you don’t do any such thing.

iii.    The Spyware might be in some special offer which may look very important like free drivers scan or virus scan or make your computer fast or something else.

iv.    Sometimes a call just keeps on appearing on the screen you better not click on it because weather you reject or accept it will install the Spyware in your PC.

And now the solution of this big problem is Spyware remover. It is sold among 8.5 million people and the sale doesn’t stop. So many people cannot be wrong. So I suggest go for it and make your computer stable and secure.

4. Find and Repair Disk Errors

Hard disks are also one of the components that can make your computer a lot fast or may cause your computer crash. So it is very important that you keep a check on them. Mostly the disk causes a bad-sector and that troubles the user a lot. But keeping a check is simple and easy.
