10 Mistakes When Buying a Smartphone
Buy the phone looks easy but if one store, bad pay the price, but what we are trying to get some tips on buying a smartphone that less ignored users.
1 The need or requirement
Remember! The budget is based on income and expenses. Income and expenses are different according to individual ability, so your budget should be based on needs and requirements.
Some are asking, how to distinguish between needs and wants? Of course, a lot of needs and desires arise within you. A need is something that should be and can not live without it. Yes, the phone is a necessity but you must be careful.
For example, a mobile phone is not a requirement for an individual if you opted last 20 years. On the other hand, in today's modern world, mobile phones have become a necessity rather than a requirement. However, when you choose an expensive handset with the latest features that you rarely use your own, you actually have to change from the requirement to requirements.
2 Too obsessed resolution camera phone
When you go to the counter, the questions asked, how-megapixel camera phone? 5.0 megapixels? 8.0 megapixel? Or 12.0 megapixels? Is it important question? The answer is, yes, it is important but it is not everything when buying the phone.
You will take the phone to Drop downstream and is commonly used camera functions of a sudden, for example recording accidents or celebrity eyes suddenly crossed in front of you. At this time, the resolution is not everything, but speed and strength shutter paramount. How to choose the shutter? Answer it difficult to answer, just a tips only the first phone in the store trying to take pictures of people in front of passers-by. Just look at any model less' blur'nya.
Processor engines play a more important role rather than a resolution. At the moment, I prefer the model iPhone 4 with strengths camera is really good, but not too great.
3 swayed person or trend
Like the words of one of the films of P Ramlee (I do not remember the title), "People want the radio, he wanted the radio ... people want a new car, she wants a new car ... 'we too follow the rhythm of the people around until forget, we do not taste the same as the tastes of others. Others may fit with Samsung and we shall also buy Samsung products even though we are more appropriate to wear a Blackberry or iPhone wherever.
Swayed different friends ask for advice from them. You can ask about your smart phone from a friend but it does not necessarily correspond to your needs. For example, your friend bought the brand because they are accustomed to wear the company's products. You will continue to buy without looking first. Akibtanya, scorched thousands of dollars of money and you're bored with your phone is not until three months wear.
Occasionally, we better buy the old model issued six months or a year old cheaper but good use. What's more, the price has fallen around RM300-RM500.
4 Select postpaid expensive
When you buy a smart phone, you definitely need a data connection to connect to the internet. Sure, a smart phone without data loss, right?
However, the mistake we are getting expensive postpaid plans. On the market, usually offered package 1MB, 2MB, 5MB and others. Some may think we need to get the most expensive plan because FREQUENT use despite the fact that its use is only half. So check what you need. If just socialize in Whatsapp, Facebook and Twitter, 1MB plan is enough.
But no one using prepaid now available for as little as RM18 a month instead of RM88 and so on. It is enough to allow you to swing on the internet. Take advantage of these requirements.
5 Buy touch screen even unfamiliar
Sometimes, we do not feel 'cool' side by side with my friends all use touch-screen smartphone is an expensive kind. We also wish to try to forget that we are more used to using the physical keyboard.
There are two smart phone users in the country, one who enjoys a touch screen and is more familiar with the key button. So you belong to which category? If you want a touch screen, a lot of brands in the market, if you want the key button, Blackberry best option right now.
If you are determined to use the touch screen, make sure you familiarize yourself learn.
6 Less reading for a little research
A rare users do before buying a smartphone is read. Read on to get their best gadgets. See some magazine or website to make sure you actually choose the best.
Make a comparison for the special paper and make sure everything is checked, including price, operating system, processor, and the thin.
7 Purchase by installments
Errors that often we do is' let papa original style. Want to buy a phone been so indebted. You better be able to pay cash to get a smart phone and do not constrained by the campaign of 0% interest. It sounds easy, but in the end if you miss a payment, its natural consequences.
Furthermore, the duration of the loan is usually one to two years, imagine only after three months, there has been a new model in the market with new technology is that. You will not want to owe lagikan? Become pay the cash.
If you can not afford, buy a simple model. There are many smart phones with price less than 1,000. Better you collect first and avoid buying products worth more than $ 1,500 if you can not afford.
8 Not concerned accessories
After buying a smart phone, preferred to take care of the expenses included screen protector and so on. Many big spenders buy a smart phone but forget about the accessories that should increase the lifespan of the phone.
I took a screen protector as an example, it is important to keep the screen. If it falls (high probability) it will cause the screen is broken. That's not talking about scratches and so on. Other accessories that needed attention was the hands-free kit (usually included, but sometimes not even) and portable chargers. Normally, this smart phone's battery very quickly decreases when the active use of portable chargers so very helpful.
Budget needed for additional accessories, maybe in the range of RM200.
9 Select inadequate storage
Due to budget shortfalls, we buy a phone with a minimum deposit capacity resulting lack of space to add interesting applications. At the present time, there is a minimum of 16GB storage for most smartphones.
There is also an additional slot for a microSD card, but better if you also use cloud storage service if possible. If you are a hard-core users, and purchase more capacity of around 32GB.
10. Buy full size
Some would like the size of more than 4.0 inches, some of which exceed 5.5 inches, but the store because like just cause you regret,. Why? phone hard fist, not ergonomic, does not fit in a pocket.
So choose carefully, if your hand size small, buy a smart phone screen 3.7 inches to 4.3 inches. It allows you to operate the phone using only one hand better.
Size also resulted in the pocket too full and difficult when moving (for men). As suggested earlier, try the phone first before buying it.
