6 Things To Look Out For Before You Buy Your Next Phone

Mobile phones are now integral parts of us, so one can not afford to continue living in the world of the past by not being a millenium compliant.

Phones' functions are now far more than just to make or receive calls and send short message service (SMS) only but can serve as our mobile offices.

Being in office while you were away cannot but be linked to the contributions of mobile phones and laptop computers.

The advantages of smart phones are too numerous to itemised.

This can only be achieved when you have smart phones with up-to-date applications that suit your line of work or business.

They are available for both have and have nots. The following underlisted factors should be considered before buying your next mobile phone or device.

1. Operating System (OS) version: Software developers develop different applications on daily basis, so buying phones with outdated OS may not help you.

For instance, social applications like Whatsapp and Blackberry Messenger (BBM) can not be installed on smart phones till date because their OS can not run it.

Illustration, if you want to buy Android phone and the version is less than 4.0, please don't buy it and on BB, if it is less than 6.0, don't as well.

2. RAM: RAM means Random Access Memory, this determines the speed of your device. I recommend minimum of 1Gb RAM most especially for people that love gaming a lot, if the RAM is small, you phone may be freezing (popularly known as hanging by some people).

3. ROM: ROM means Read Only Memory. It is regarded as to inbuilt memory storage of the phone. Your should be able to keep some data, information and files even without the external storage, otherwise known as memory cards.

Though I will not encourage you not to have external storage because there is a limit to what ROM can store, so that your device can function well.

If you are the type that love to have a lot of musicals cum videos on your phone, please get yourself an external storage, so that the phone can last.

4. Battery capacity: This refers to the standby time or usage time of your battery. It is calculated in "mHa". Check the battery, you will see it boldly written there, like 2600mHa.

The higher the number, the longer your battery will last. I remember my Blackberry bold 4, the battery capacity is 1,500mHa.... Power bank became second phone then because the battery drains easily.

But my present phone has a whooping value of 4000mHa, which serves me for two days....  Hope you know understand my point? Good you do!

5. Screen size:   This is very very individualistic, some have passion for big screens while the reverse is the case for others.

The size of your phone will determine the class that it will fall into, whether mobile phones, tablets or what have you.

6. Money: Ego, Kudi, Owo.....  Still referring to money but in our three major languages. The money that you can afford on the phone is equally a factor.

Some are phone freaks, they don't mind spending over N300,000 for just a phone....  Naxo!

But some as "Elegbe Gegede", they cannot break a bank because they want to change phone.

So the choice of the phone that you will buy is yours to make but don't over stress your finance because you want to impress.

I can go on and on....  But permit me to hang my pen here tonight, bed calling... LOL

keep visiting.....  More goodies are in stock, remember we will soon be in the Santa Clus' month.... Chuckles.
