Is the phone on Android OS suitable for Alex Exler or a painless transition from Windows Mobile to Android? Part 2

For those who suddenly missed: Yesterday night, published the first part of the review: Available here
So, we still have the following functions:
7.Work with Google Maps.
8. Advanced filtering of phone calls.
9. Weather forecast.
10. World time.
11. Writing and sending SMS.
12. Work with additional applications - a calculator, a camera and so on.
I will try to consider their use on the Android Os:

7.Work with Google Maps.
The native Maps application on Android Os is very convenient, it has been constantly improved by Google, the pedestrian mode and other innovations have been recently added. The interface is convenient, it differs from an iPhone, except that it lacks multitouch (yet). On the map Available Locator- allows you to see your relatives or friends (those who give you permission) on the map. Also for those countries where Street View mode is available.

Also, the application from the category of "Wow Factor" is the Sky Map application released by the same Google. It shows what stars are above you, based on your current location. It is pleasant to sit in the evening in a beautiful place with your beloved, to study the stars above your head.

8. Advanced filtering of phone calls. With such a task, I have not yet come across personally, but nevertheless I found the corresponding program, thanks w3bsit3-dns.com.ru:
The program is called Panda Firewall. Functions: Blocking unwanted calls and sms. Setting up an automatic reply sms. Keeping a journal.

9. Weather forecast.
Here those very widgets that are one of the Android chips will be very useful. There are many different ones; I’ll give screenshots of some of them:

In the firmware from Hero, the weather forecast is built-in, you can choose different cities. Also available is the option with the clock given above:

10. World time
Again, many programs are available for this task, here’s one of them: World Clockr

11. Writing and sending SMS.
There is a native program that you can use:

But I liked the free ChompSMS . Program, which besides the standard functionality does many more useful things, like a normal popup when a message arrives with instant response, Iphone-style dialogues, reading messages in voice (Russians, it seems, are not reading yet) etc ...

12. Work with additional applications - a calculator, a camera and so on.
There are a lot of additional applications, here are screenshots of standard applications that were not mentioned before:
Calculator, Browser

Alarm clock, native mp3 player:

Camera, Camcorder:

It seems to be all.

A small conclusion: I do not know about you, but I like the phone. I am pleased with it and absolutely do not regret purchasing it. Compared to Vinmobayl- heaven and earth. Compared to an iPhone, something is implemented better (take the same widgets for example), which is (so far) worse. At the moment of the programs I lack only normal navigation with maps of Ukraine - those 5 or 6 programs that have already been released unfortunately do not have them.
The main reason for buying this phone for me was close online integration with Google services, namely with Gmail, Google calendar, Gtalk. I received it in full size and in a very convenient implementation.
It is also beyond praise to work with other online services, such as Twitter, Facebook, ICQ. Probably not enough high-grade skype yet, although I think this is also a matter of time - after all, this is already the second version of Andoid OS, but only by the end of the year they promised a few more. I like the open approach to OS very much - not so much as in the iPhone we are waiting when Great Jobs will let us down the MMC implementation, and all the shortcomings of OS improvements are discussed in an open forum and many of them are implemented before official updates are released in third-party firmware. Friends of the iPhone, do not take it as an insult, but how much time passed before the release of firmware 3.0 in which the functions that existed in other phones much earlier were finally implemented? IMHO the basic functions in Android are implemented almost everything, although you can argue about the "elegance" of their implementation.
Thank you for your patience and attention.
Arseny,
Interesting Kiev
