Different people have differenting needs for example a trades person may want a phone that's robust, simple and fuss free whereas a business man may look for style and advanced features.
Lets look at some of those options.
Phone size, weight and construction:
This is probably the first place to examine considering how you prefer to carry your handset. Do you want a phone that will fit in your pocket, purse or do you prefer to clip it to your belt or hang it from a neck chain? This is where phone size, weight and attaching accessories / options become important as you have to live with this everyday.
Phone construction is a consideration where some people may look for large fumble free buttons others may not. Chassis construction is important as some will look for flip or sliding front style phones for button protection and style reasons whereas a trades person may look for a flat chassis phone to eliminate mechanisms that can be suspect to damage under extreme use.
Display size and resolution:
Most color screened mobiles are capable of displaying 16 bit of colors (65,536 colors). And higher the better for clearer graphics. Font sizes should be looked at for suitability for you.
Phone Features:
Phones are coming jam packed with features and it's worth looking at what's available and get features that suit your needs. It's also worth checking that the features for the phone will be available on the network you choose to connect to.
Some of the popular phone features include
- Email capability (check with network carrier for compatibility)
- Web browser (should be xhmtl compatible)
- Media Capabilities (look for mp3, mp4, wma and aac + compatibilities for audio and video)
- Camera (higher the megapixel the better, some will have zoom feature, flash)
- Memory (If you will be using media capabilities, ie Mp3 player or camera, look at memory size or expandable memory options via card)
- Connectivity (some phones can connect to pc for synchronization and use as a modem, can be via infared or cable)
- Downloads (some phones will be able to download tones, themes and games. Check for polyphonic, real tone and java compatibility)
That's a very brief look at some of the options available and there are many more options to consider. One of those is which network. The network you connect to will determine your coverage (reception) area and services. Some networks offer advanced services like video calling and fast data transfer for web browsing etc (3g networks, I Mode networks, GPRS, EDGE) although other older GSM networks may offer more coverage. Check with each operator and fit to your own needs.
