Millions of people use cell phones today. This compact device allows not only to quickly communicate with other subscribers, but in most cases is equipped with all sorts of additional functions - clocks, radio, cameras, diaries, music players.
The most modern models can even be used as car navigators. Today, in any specialty store, you can see a huge number of all kinds of models of cell phones that differ both in terms of cost, and in terms of appearance and functionality. How do you choose the cell phone that is perfect for you?
First of all, it is worth remembering that all cell phones are conventionally divided into classes, each of which has its own characteristics, and, consequently, its own cost. Budget phones are designed mainly for sending messages and making calls, so they are equipped with the most minimal set of functions, and their design is not complicated. Usually such phones are bought for the elderly or children. Simple and functional, such a device is inexpensive.
Fashion phones are usually characterized by an original design solution of the case, unusual colors and bright personality (unfortunately, sometimes even to the detriment of the functionality of the device). More expensive are business-class cell phones that combine advanced design solutions and innovative technologies. Such a phone can perform several dozen work tasks at once, supports memory cards, is of high quality and reliability. The design of a business-class phone is solid and restrained in most cases.
Multimedia phones usually come with additional playback and recording capabilities for video and audio files. The most important characteristics of such phones are high battery capacity, large memory capacity, wide display, high-quality camera and additional options for transferring and receiving multimedia files.
A separate class of cell phones - smartphones - are comparable in functionality to PDAs. The large, high-resolution display allows you to fully work with web pages, and the full-fledged keyboard allows you to enter large amounts of text. There are also smartphones with touchscreens - they are considered more versatile.
After you have decided on the functionality of the phone, you need to pay attention to such an indicator as the form factor. It is important to choose a cell phone of the type that will be the most convenient for you to use. If you like compactness, you should choose a monoblock phone. This is the most common form of a cell phone and has been proven over and over again.
Phones, which are often undeservedly considered a simple tribute to fashion, are very convenient due to the comfortable location of the microphone and speaker. Using such a telephone, you can be sure that you will be insured against accidental calls provoked by an involuntary pressing of the telephone key. The only drawback of clamshell phones is the fragile opening-closing design, which is a really weak point of this form factor.
Slider phones are more durable than flip phones, but they are not always convenient. Most of the difficulties arise in the process of typing messages, since the top panel of such a phone is always heavier than the bottom.
When choosing a phone, do not forget to pay attention to the type and capacity of the battery. Today, the most common lithium-ion batteries are characterized by large capacity and compactness. Remember that it is not recommended to keep them discharged for a long time and to use them at very low temperatures - such use will drastically reduce the battery life.
