Mary Jo already posted about the release of Office for Android
smartphones and Larry offered up his thoughts on the new software.
Since I previously posted a side-by-side gallery of Office Mobile for
the iPhone compared to the native Office Mobile client on Windows
Phone 8 I wanted to also give you a look at Office Mobile for Android
smartphones.
As you can see in this short screenshot gallery, Microsoft was able to
bring the same experience seen on Windows Phone 8 devices and the
iPhone to Android smartphones. Given that Android smartphones have the
largest displays of these three smartphone platforms, I think users
may find the Android version the most useful of all.
A key difference between what I have on my new Nokia Lumia 1020 and
what we get with the iPhone and Android phones is that an Office 365
subscription is required on iOS and Android while Windows Phone owners
get native Office without requiring the service.
I am running Office Mobile on my fantastic HTC One, I still believe it
is the best smartphone I have ever used, and it looks great. I felt
squeezed by the small iPhone display, but that is not the case on the
1080p 4.7 inch HTC One display. The layout for some editing tools and
menus are a bit different on each platform and I personally find that
iOS and Android are a bit more refined and user friendly.
Those of us who have been around the mobile world for a while will
remember paying upwards of $50 for applications that allowed us to
work with word documents and spreadsheets and I remember long
discussions and comparisons about getting chart support in those apps.
Office Mobile on today's modern smartphones functions well and is an
incredible value for those who need native Office support.
It is nice to have Office functionality on all my different
smartphones and while some people are happy with services like Google
Docs or even the new Quip word processor nothing beats having the
ability to jump in and edit native Office files. Microsoft is a
software company at its core and I think this is a smart move to
finally get Office on all mobile platforms.
By reason of an individual's newly released articles or blog posts, That i wil take advantage of one of the best composition provider throughout my best access. renta de oficinas
