Steps to follow before buying a phone

Today we see different types of smartphone with different features, look and unique designs but we are still confused about the type of devices to choose here are 7 steps to follow in other to ensure you get a good smartphone.

  • The brand
It is important for in individual to consider the brand or it manufacturers.To be on a safe side it is best an individual to go for leading players in the smartphone industry like iPhone, Samsung, tecno,infinix,gionee,oneplus,htc,sony and many more, it is not adviceable to go for brands that are not widely known for quality phones not that their products are bad but it best to go for leading and widely recongnise company. At a point in time an individual will want to sell a phone for any reason,so going for a nice brand will encourage the interest in buyers if you are willing to sell.


  • The storage
If you are a person who would like to save a lot of apps, videos and images or if you are a business man or woman who would want to save a lot of files it is best to go for a phone with at least 32gb or more. But if you are a type that might not need a lot of space or maybe you listen to music, take photos, go on social media like facebook and instagram you can go fine with a 16gb phone and you may also want to go a phone that has a SD card slot so you can always double or add to your storage anytime it is necessary. 


  • Battery 
If you are a type that make use of your phone to carry out heavy task or you will not want a phone with a long lasting battery, you will need to go with a phone that has a 4000mah battery but if you only perform some simple task or less power consuming task then 3000mah will do just fine. 

  • The Ram
if you are a type that like to run heavy apps or like to carryout a lot of activities on your smartphone then it is best to go for a phone with at least 2 GB. But 3gb will be better. If you want a phone that will be fast and you don't run too many apps then 2gb will do just fine. 
Note:it is not advicable to go for 1gb because it won't be sufficient to carry out some task and apps and it will not favour the system. It can cause the phone to probably hang or get sluggish sometimes so to be on the safe side 2 GB will be better. 

  • The software
Smartphones run on either Andriod,IOS on the iphone or Windows which are considered to be good but if you are on a tight budget then you can probably go for android or windows  but if you have enough money then iOS will do great too.they are all good softwares which also have their ups and downs.if you would want a phone that will last you for at least a year before buying a new one and still be able to get most of the features the next update on the software  will have then the best OS will be IOS because iPhone support their phone for up to 3 years or more. If you want to consider android then go for the brand that guarantees it phones update for at least a year or 2 like infinix , Samsung  etc. In other to add more value to the smartphone and make sure you enjoy latest features and update for a long time. 


  • The network brand
If you are a type that will love to browse a lot, watch online videos, watch and download movies, apps, music, files etc  and will love fast internet then going for a phone that supports 4g will be the best.3g is good but there is no guarantee of getting  fast internet.

  • The camera 
The camera is one of the most important part of a smartphone .to get good images or videos using the rear camera.it megapixel must be atlest 13 and to get quality selfies and videos with the front camera then it best to go with at least 5 megapixel .
Note:the megapixel of the camera will add to the quality of images and videos but doesn't fully guarantee the phones camera quality. 

  •        Others 
other factors to consider maybe the screen size if you want a big phone which you be comfortable with then you can go for a phone that has a screen length  of 6 Inches but if you want a normal or portable phone then 5 -5.5. Inch will be good. 
 In other to add to the security for our devices going for a phone with a finger print reader, Irish scanner or face ID will be great but at least it must have finger print reader for better security. 

  To enjoy some features on our smart phones going for a device with a lot of sensors will be great like gyroscope, accelerometer, light sensors, compass etc. They are majorly available in most phones but it would  be good  not to consider a phone that lacks one or two sensors listed. 

  An individual is expected to go for sophisticated phones that are highly durable which have strong screen/screen protector, water resistant,scratch resistant, metal body or frame. In other to enjoy such phone for many years without thinking of repairs or problems. 

  Smartphone are expensive but it is better to go for a mid-range smartphone or a flagship smartphone. All to ensure it durability, it support and to prevent all form of problems e.g an iPhone, the Samsung Galaxy s8,google pixel, zero 5 etc.
 In terms of budget one may have to budget at least 40000 to get a good smartphone.
