How To Choose The Best Mobile

By Stuart Richmond


There's a great deal of choice whenever it comes to picking a new smart phone and it's hard to choose which one is the most suitable when you're more or less spoilt for choice. Not surprisingly, lots of models will probably be discounted right away if you're trying to find a great deal of features, so before you start choose which you want the most.

For instance, you may enjoy taking photographs on the go, so will probably be looking at the most effective camera phones, you will possibly not be an Apple fan, so will be looking for the top Android phones, or perhaps you love a particular make, so may be centering on the most effective HTC phone. Mobile phones today have an incredible range of features if you're looking at top of the range phones. Cameras, incredibly fast processing power, email, the web, social networking - many of these things are used more and more on handsets now and the smartphone revolution is only set to continue.

Finding the right phone depends on your needs Firstly, what do you want a cell phone for? Is it strictly going to be for private use or will you be making use of it for business too? Most high-end phones are now allowing you to gain access to electronic mail and also have diary and note functions, but customarily Blackberry has been seen as the company cellphone. The Blackberry Torch 9810 for instance not only provides you with access to e mail but allows for personal and company connectivity, as well as being Cisco certified.

This really is ideal for companies who buy their employee's devices and companies that operate a Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) scheme. However, Blackberry isn't the only option available; the Samsung Galaxy S II allows secure connections to Microsoft Exchange server so you can quickly sync your company email, calendar, contacts and tasks to your phone with little bother. Apple's iPhone 4S also has a range of functionality for use with business and anything can be synced with Personal computer, Mac and ipad tablet so that all your information will be current wherever you are.

Apple or Android? This is really down to personal choice more than anything else. Android's mobile operating systems are usually now the most widely used in the world, but some argue that it's inherently insecure due to Google's app submission process. Unlike Apple, there's no rigorous procedure that developers have got to go through to get an application in the Marketplace and this has brought about malware infecting a small number of apps. Having said that, Android is actually open source, which means that because more developers are working with it, far better improvements are made all the time. If you wish to use your smartphone for connecting to the workplace though, it's as well to bear security in mind. Not surprisingly, I-phones have the best connectivity in terms of sharing all of your data across devices including the Mac and apple ipad. This is convenient as you possibly can buy and share apps across devices, so once you've bought an app on one device, you can utilize it on another without more cost. Apple have iCloud which means your information is instantly copied on the cloud whenever you do something new, such as take a photograph or write an e-mail, depending on how you have told it to save.

What are the best Android cell phones? Again, a lot of this really is down to personal choice; a lot of people haven't let go of Nokia and often will always purchase them, whilst others have fallen in love with HTC and wish to keep with them. There's little doubt that just about all manufacturers on top of the range level have lots to offer. However, currently the Samsung Galaxy S II is regarded as the perfect Android phone out there by many of the gadget web sites. This is because of processing power, large, clear screen and super-slim design, as well as the indisputable fact that it's as light as a feather within your hand. Watching movies on this phone is extraordinary, the actual display is incredibly sharp and colours display wonderfully. For music, an ideal choice would be the HTC Sensation with Beats Audio, because this phone has developed specially optimised Beats earbuds to give an exceptional experience in terms of quality of sound.

What about cameras? Whilst it was once the case you had to be particular about camera cell phones, this really is no longer the case when you're shopping high-end. The best camera phones will be the most costly, there's no doubt nevertheless they tend to differ little in quality, although the apple iphone 4S is currently considered the best by many people. HTC's are apt to have lower mega-pixels when compared with other models, but picture quality remains outstanding despite this and the Samsung Galaxy S II is well thought of as well - both the Samsung and apple iphone currently have 8MP cameras. Blackberry camera phones also have 8MPs now and are every bit as amazing as their rivals - Blackberry have evolved to become considerably more than company cell phones and therefore are popular with teenagers, thanks to their free BBM service.

Watching videos, reading books and more Most smartphones have the capability of a reader in the form of apps at least, though not all are very easy to read on. Again, the Samsung Galaxy S II is great for reading as it has such a large screen, the HTC Sensation is similarly good, although the iPhone and Blackberry aren't so great. The same goes for enjoying movies and streaming content, these are typically things that you need a good display for in order to get the most out of the experience, so if this is something you envisage doing a great deal of, then it's as well to pay attention to screen size.

All mobile phones now have easy to use social networking tools and if you don't do a lot of this then it can be a little frustrating. However, if you do it's mostly just a case of one or two clicks in order to immediately share content such as photos and video with your friends. All in all, there's no easy answer to which cell phone is best as it depends on the individual, but the phones listed in this article are considered to be excellent multifunctional devices that allow anyone to do everything, from share a photograph to work with emails and documents.
