Android
September 20th 2008 was the date when Google released the first Android OS by the name of ‘Astro’. Android is the name of the Linux based operating system that is backed by Google and the other members of the Open Handset Alliance. Because of Android’s open source nature, Android based smartphones should be cheaper to produce than those that use operating systems.
And there are various mobile which used this operating system And some top smartphone which use the same platform like Sony xperia , HTC Desite , LG optimus etc
Apple iOS
Apple released the iOS operating system which is used in iPhone was launched on 29th June 2007 when the iPhone was developed. Since then there were many updates of iOS and the latest one is the iOS 6. Apple iOS is unique and is only for Apple iPhone & iPad and no other manufacturer can use this operating system platform. Some of the latest Windows Phones are iPhone, iPhone 2G, iPhone 3G, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPad, iPad2, iPad3.
BlackBerry OS
Blackberry OS developed by Research In Motion (RIM) and was released in 1999. BlackBerry Os is running on every smartphone which is designed by RIM and the strange part is that Blackberry OS is totally dissimilar from other operating systems. Some of the latest Phones are Blackberry Bold, Blackberry Curve, Blackberry Torch
Windows OS
Windows OS is widely known OS as this is used in our desktop and Laptop computers but not everyone knows about Windows OS in detail because it is used in computers all over the world, but Windows OS running on Computer and mobile phone are totally different things.Some of the latest Windows Phones are Nokia Lumia 800, Nokia Lumia 900,
Symbian
Symbian OS is formally the possessions of Nokia. If any company wants to work on this OS will have to take consent from Nokia. Nokia was a leader in the mobile market, so after Java symbian was ultimately widely used mobile phone some time ago when iOS and Android were not in the picture. Some of the latest Phones are which using above operating system is Nokia E6, Nokia 808 , Nokia 701, Nokia C 6.
BADA
Like others Samsung also owns an operating system which is known as BADA. It is designed for mid range and high end smartphones. Bada is a quiet user friendly and efficient operating system, much like Android but unfortunately Samsung did not use Bada on a large scale for unknown reasons.
The latest version Bada 2.0.5 was released on March 15th 2012. There are only 3 phones which are operating on Bada. These three smartphones are Samsung Wave, Samsung Wave 2 and Samsung Wave 3. I believe that Bada would have achieved much greater success if Samsung had promoted it properly.
Open WebOS
Open WebOS also known as Hp WebOS or just WebOS which was basically developed by Palm Inc but after some years it became the property of Hewlett Packard. WebOS was launched in 2009 and was used in number of smartphones and tablets.
Hp promoted WebOS at a very high level by using it in high end smartphones and tablets. The latest device working on WebOS was the Hp Touch Pad. With the introduction of Android in the market sales of Hp WebOS based tablets got very less. At last Hp announced to discontinue WebOS based devices, but the existing users were assured that they will get regular updates of the operating system.
Maemo
Nokia and Maemo Community joined hands to produce an operating system for smartphones and internet tablets, known as Maemo. Like other devices the user interface of Maemo also comprised of a menu from which the user can go to any location.
Like today’s Android the home screen is divided into multiple sections which show Internet Search bar, different shortcut icons, RSS Feed and other such things. Later in 2010 at the MWC (Mobile World Congress) it was revealed that now Maemo project will be merged with Mobilin to create a fresh operating system known as MeeGo.
Palm OS (Garnet OS)
Palm OS was developed by Palm Inc in 1996 especially for PDAs (Personal Digital Assistance). Palm OS was basically designed to work on touchscreen GUI. Some Years later it was upgraded and was able to support smartphones. Unfortunately it could not make a mark on the market and currently is not being used in any of the latest top devices.
It has been 5 and half years since we saw the latest update of palm OS in 2007. Palm OS was used by many companies including Lenovo, Legend Group, Janam, Kyocera
