4 Tips Before Buying A New Smartphone

A few years ago, you may recall, having a cell phone was synonymous with luxury, an article in the pocket of very few people. Over time, the technological evolution and the popularization of the device, came up models with much more affordable prices and a satisfactory performance, much higher than those previously considered the best in the market of yore. Even the term has been changing over time. The phone has evolved, gained new functions, optimized performance, and become "Smartphone".

With a high processing capacity, simultaneous tasks and a culture of portability, Smartphones have gained a larger space in people's lives, who now use the device to work, have leisure time and get information.

Buying a device therefore requires more and more attention. I need to be aware of the needs, potential and possibilities of a smartphone.

BNUS TIP

, here the bonus tip comes before as it is very important. Turns out our bonus code bet to pay attention when purchasing a new Smartphone the processor of the device. A factor overlooked by many, it is the "brain" of the Smartphone, responsible for ensuring the good performance of all tasks. Watch out for him!

People often worry a lot about RAM and storage numbers and end up neglecting processors, so it's worth spending a little time and researching the options within your budget.

OPERATIONAL SYSTEM

There are two dominant systems on the market today; Apple's iOS and Google's Android, present in many brands.

Generally the indication when it comes to operating system and choosing which one gives you the Apps you need and like the most, however, currently this is not such a relevant factor when choosing between an iPhone and an Android Smartphone, since Both have broad compatibility.

I would say camos here on a big matter of taste, a good Android Smartphone can be as efficient as an iPhone and cost a little less, depending on the brand, case of the top models of the Oneplus for example.

If money is no problem, this factor becomes less relevant, but still, in the case of iPhone, it is worth considering an international purchase, given the amounts charged here in Brazil today.

As a personal opinion, unless you need iOS or iPhone for any important reason or really (really!) Like it, there is no reason for you to buy such an expensive Smartphone.

However, there is another minor factor of importance, the software upgrade, more specifically, of the operating system itself. At this point iOS turns out to be more efficient, iPhones usually get updates longer than Android devices.

In my experience (there may be others) companies like Xiaomi, Motorola and OnePus usually keep their systems up to date, often not with the latest version of Google, but with the latest security patches, which are the most critical point.

DRUMS

Before buying a smartphone, you need to know the average battery life not to be frustrated. It should also be understood that when the device is widely used in activities such as playing games, video and GPS access, for example, the charge will go away much faster than when used in moderate use. A battery between 2600 mAh and 3.3200 mAh is of a good size for those who will not leave the device in heavy operation most of the time.

For more heavily used people, it is worth considering larger capacity devices. I example have been using for over a year now Xiaomi Mi Max 2 It has a huge battery, ideal for long trips where you spend all day away from home and do not want to be looking for sockets and USBs to charge the device.

CMERA

Smartphones cameras are increasingly developed, with sharper captures and a variety of digital features for taking photos. But many people think that the quality of a camera is measured only by the number of megapixels, however, not quite. It is also necessary, at the time of purchase, to analyze the size of the sensor, the quality of the lens and the presence of an optical stabilizer. The quality of the footage should be a criterion when choosing or not for a smartphone.

Even for many photography lovers buying an iPhone ends up thinking about this, there is no denying that the Apple device capable of taking beautiful photographs, however, it is definitely not the "last cracker of the package" in this regard and there are other devices. who focused on considerably improving the result of their photos, such as the new Asus line and OnePlus itself, which is already mentioned, which in terms of cost-effectiveness (speaking of Brazil) ends up having a certain lead.

MEMORY

Few things are worse on a smartphone than going to the app store to download games, and suddenly a notification pops up warning of a lack of memory space. This memory is internal, responsible for storing files in general; on mobile phones usually comes in versions of 8GB, 16GB, 32GB, 64GB …

The other type of memory is RAM; It is used by the system itself to perform basic mobile applications and tasks. The larger it is, the less likely it is to slow down. It is recommended to purchase a device that has good levels in both types of memory.

If you understand a bit of a computer, it's easy to draw a parallel between the HD (or SSD) and your Smartphone's internal memory and the RAM "combs" with your device's RAM.

Many lay people on this subject end up making gaffes in their purchases by ignoring this kind of thing.

BNUS N 2

One more consideration for you when buying your smartphone. Until then.

The size of the screen can cause many people to make mistakes. There are many brands that bet on larger screens for lower prices in an attempt to compete with more famous devices. Note that having a large screen does not necessarily mean high pixel density and good resolution, this can make quite a difference when watching your Netflix movies or YouTube videos.

Above all, research, make a comparative table, and look at what each brand has to offer you with each available model that interests you and is part of your budget.

See you next time!
