By John Martin


Bravo - you have made the choice to purchase a brand new Smartphone for yourself. In order to help you make the right choice quickly and easily, here are some ideas and help about buying the best Smartphone for you. I appreciate that this might be a big decision for you.Everyone's situation is different. I trust that this will facilitate you to understand the vast amounts of information which is out there. I very much hope that it will enable you to make the right choice simply and easily.

Let's take a few steps back, to start off with. Precisely, what is one of these Smartphones anyway? Well, putting it simply, it is a small hand-held mobile telephone which include an extensive array of other applications such as e-mail, Internet access, text messaging, a personal calendar and even the capacity to make your own videos and a lot more as well.

So, please continue to read on to find out my eight top tips for buying a Smartphone for yourself.

1. The first question that you should ask your self is exactly how you intend to use this phone. Some people will want to use it for business whilst others will only want it for social networking. Business users will certainly have a very good idea of the set of programs which they are used to using in the office and these can be replicated on the Smartphone. Personal uses will be able to find a wide range of social networking programs which they may find very useful indeed.

2. Do you insist on using a conventional QWERTY keyboard or are you more comfortable with using a more modern pointing device? Consider the differing options which Smart phones present and select one which you are most comfortable with.

3. It is well worth while to visit your local retailer and ask for a few telephones to play around with. Have a look at how you navigate around the different menus when using different models. This is a crucial point as you will use this system to whole time. Just for the moment, stop thinking about all of those technical features you have been dreaming about and concentrate on considering if you feel comfortable with the device in your hand and how it operates. You can then go on to consider technical aspects of the applications you wish once you've done that.

4. Do you insist on using a traditional QWERTY keyboard? Are you more comfortable with using a pointing device? Consider the different options which the different Smart phones offer and select one which you are most comfortable with.

5. There will, no doubt, the many types of applications which you want to consider when making your decision. This would include options such as the ability to surf around the Internet (perhaps by using your laptop by connecting to your Smartphone via a USB connection), create videos, and to send text messages. There is even the option to use the device as a portable navigational GPS system. It is a really good idea is to make a note of all of these different functions and decide which ones are essential and which ones you can live without. This is because you might have some limitations placed upon you because of cost.

6. Now, here is one really top tip. Check out how the screen reacts when you are outdoors because some phones are bad in the sunlight, or even ordinary daylight You want to be certain that you can always read it even if you are in bright sunshine.

7. Consider if your intended purchase allows you to carry out several different functions at once. Once more, this might be important to you depending on how you intend to use your phone. You should make certain that your new telephone can handle carrying out several functions all at once if you intend to use it for more than a one purpose at a time. Otherwise, you may find yourself becoming annoyed if you have to keep closing their one program in order to start another one.

8. Taking photographs with a phone is a very popular function for many people. Now, it could be a temptation to look at the technical aspects of the video and camera application. A lot of people will look at the number of megapixels, for example. This might not be the best way forward, though. A much better way to check out the camera is to take a photograph with it and see how it looks. And another thing to do is to ask the shop for a printout of the photograph and see if it is good quality. Consider, also, buying a telephone with a built-in flash if you're going to use the camera in doors a great deal.

It can be well worthwhile to buy your self a quality headset because the vast majority of today's mobile phones include a good quality MP3 player as a standard. This will allow you to make the most of the MP3 player rather than relying upon the earphones which come packed with the device. These can be quite a low standard. You can also buy external speakers so that you can use it at home or around the office. Make sure to use these tips when buying a Smartphone and they should enable you to make the best choice possible.
