How to choose the right phone

What was yesterday a luxury, inaccessible to mere mortals, is now a necessity. In our country there was a time when not every citizen could have a cell phone. The cost of the services of operators and the first devices equipped with a SIM card was fabulous. However, today almost everyone has a phone. Manufacturers produce a variety of a variety of models, which allows customers to purchase exactly the version of the cellular that best suits them.

How to choose a phone? It would seem that this is the simplest question. You need to go to the nearest specialized store, take any model you like and put a certain amount for it. Does it really matter which phone to choose? However, this is not so simple. Your model should last you for many years, working properly.

What do you need to consider if you decide to choose a phone? First, what do you want it for? Purely for communication or also, for example, to listen to music? Perhaps the right answer to this question will help you save a certain amount. If you do not need any features, then why should you overpay for them?

Also pay attention to the battery. From its type will depend on how long you will be served by a phone without charging. There are several types of batteries. Nickel-metal hydride has a relatively low cost and large volume. Such batteries should be periodically brought to full discharge. As a rule, they are installed on inexpensive phones.

Lithium-ion batteries are more capacious and compact. They are more expensive than nickel-metal hydride, although their shelf life is limited to one and a half years. It is not recommended to keep them in a fully discharged state or use at low temperature.

Lithium polymer batteries are very capacious.

Pay attention to options that may require additional energy costs, in particular, for the presence of keyboard backlighting.

Choose a phone can be of three main types: "clamshell", slider or candybar. The last option is the simplest in form and the most compact. "Clamshell" is different in that its microphone and speaker are close to the mouth and ear of the speaker. In addition, it is very convenient to receive calls, just by opening the top of the phone. The disadvantage of this type of cellular is the design. Such a device can be quite fragile in the event of a fall.

Slider, or, as it is also called, "shell", has a number of positive sides. The display occupies most of the area. Some functions can be used without even opening the phone itself. Such cellular phones are stronger than "clamshells", however their thickness can be more.

It's unlikely you want to choose a phone without a camera. This function has long been surprising to anyone. To ensure the quality of the images was decent, the camera must have at least two megapixels.

If you want to select a phone on which you can store a large number of media files, then this requires a large amount of memory. It can be either built-in, or equipped with a special card. And the one and the other option can suit the user of the phone. There are models with so much internal memory that for them no card with additional gigabytes is required. For example, an inexpensive "clamshell" Fly M130 or Nokia N81.
