What To Look For In A Smartphone
Knowing what handset you are looking for will assist you in finding the best mobile phone. Each phone has its specifications, and you will need to match them to your needs.
Here are some of the elements to consider:
- The build
Most handsets have a metal or plastic build. You want to look for one durable and won’t break after one drop. If you tend to drop your phone often, placing a cover or casing around it might be a good idea.
- Display
A good display size is between 5.5 and 6 inches. Bigger display sizes may be beneficial if you use your smartphone for Office-type functionality. However, it does make handling a little more clumsy and is hard to fit into your pocket or bag.
- Camera
Having a device with a front-facing and back-facing camera is convenient for various photographs. However, when looking at the camera specifications, remember that the number of MPs will determine the clarity of the image on the screen.
- Battery
Battery life is an important element when considering a device. Look at a 300-3500Ah battery to last the day for an average to a high user.
- OS or Interface
The operating system is more preference-based (Android vs Apple) as both are good quality and offer multiple applications and easy-to-use operations.
- Audio
An audio jack is important if you want to incorporate headphones into your daily phone use. This is usually a good option to have.
- Memory Card
Depending on the internal RAM of your device, you should increase your phone’s storage. You will want to place a memory card on your phone. Making sure this is a possibility is important.
Now that the basic elements have been considered and you have a good idea of the best handset, you can look at the deals on offer from various mobile service providers.
Mobile Phone Plans
Different mobile service providers will offer different packages. Browsing and comparing these deals will find you the best option.
Most service providers like AO mobile, EE, O2, Three, and Vodafone offer deals in the following three categories:
- Monthly contract and phone
Here you will get a contract of minutes/data/airtime and a device. The cost of the device is worked into the monthly price of the contract. These contracts usually span between 12 and 36 months.
- SIM only
This option provides the monthly contract of minutes/data/airtime you require without the device. The longer you take the contract, the more affordable it becomes.
- Pay-as-you-go SIM
This option allows you to pay for what you use as you use it. There is no device associated with this offer. If you are an avid user, this may become an expensive option.
Now you can choose which plan will work for you.

With this knowledge, you are ready to go out and find the best phone and plan to stay connected and involved.
