Stephen Elop Quotes

One of my big regrets is that Facebook hasn't had a major chance to shape the mobile operating system ecosystem.

Android is ahead of the iPhone now.

Android's user-space is so different from stock Linux, you can easily say that Android is not in any way a Linux system, except for the kernel.

A smartphone is a computer - it's not built using a computer - the job it does is the job of being a computer. So, everything we say about computers, that the software you run should be free - you should insist on that - applies to smart phones just the same. And likewise to those tablets.

Apple has long been a leading innovator of mobile technology; I myself own an iPhone.

Despite my so-so-experience with the iPhone, I do love its touchscreen technology, a feature I miss with my standard-issue BlackBerry.

The interesting thing about Android's design is how little we modified the kernel.

As Apple continues to release new styles of netbooks, laptops, and even desktops with untold movie-watching and game-playing capabilities, I wouldn't be surprised to see the iPhone operating system running on them - and the Macintosh eventually becoming a thing of the past.

There's no more important consumer product today than a cell phone.

The iPhone was the first phone that brought what we used to think of as 'desktop quality' software to a handheld platform: software where you just say, 'Wow, that's a great user experience,' not merely, 'Wow, that's a great user experience for a handheld.'

You don't need to be a computer scientist to use a Windows Phone. I think you do to use an Android phone.

When I look at the next set of technologies that we have to build in Salesforce, it's all data-science-based technology. We don't need more cloud. We don't need more mobile. We don't need more social. We need more data science.

I've never used an app.

I'm a big mobile fan, so I love seeing all of the latest technologies with phones.

The iPhone is so easy to use and navigate - I'd be lost without it.

Literally every single sliver of technology that makes the iPhone a smartphone instead of a stupidphone - internet, GPS, touchscreen, battery, hard drive, voice recognition - was developed by researchers on the government payroll.

InMobi is passionate about pushing the limits of business and mobile technology.

In addition to making Android available for free, Google also lets phone makers change the code and customize it so that an Android phone made by, say, Samsung has a different user interface than an Android phone from Motorola.

I'm always trying whatever the latest telephone is.

If you get rid of music, images, videos, words and literature from the smartphone, you just have a simple phone that would be worth $50.
