Last updated on June 9, 2016 By Ahmed Hamdy 1 Comment

In 2014, smartphones became an important device to own, but what is the right smartphone for you? How can you choose the perfect one without spending a lot of money? We show you the most important 3 factors you should consider while getting your smartphone. Easy & Short.

1- Size

Size is related to the way you’ll use your smartphone. If you’re planning on watching your favorite movies and TV Shows, then it’s better to get a bigger smartphone. If you want your smartphone to be light and accessible at all times, then you may consider getting a smaller one.

For example, the iPhone 5S has a 4-inch screen. This can be a perfect choice for people who want their mobile to be handy and light. It can be also convenient for navigating and long phone calls.

On the other hand, Samsung and Nokia offer bigger sizes for their smartphones. The newSamsung Galaxy S5 has a 5.7-inch screen, while the Nokia Lumia 1520 has a 6-inch one. These can be perfect for people who enjoy watching online on the go. It can also be a real blast if you enjoy taking photos.

2- Operating System

Choosing the perfect OS for you depends enormously on you personal preference. You will find that a lot of people prefer the iPhone for its sharp design and rich App Store, while others prefer Android for its open environment and wide selection mobile brands. There’s also Windows Phone which offers bigger screens and constant updates on Nokia. I strongly prefer going to retailers yourself and testing the different kinds of operating systems before deciding which one will be your smartphone.

Going over the applications you will need in your smartphone is also an important step in getting your perfect smartphone. Of course, there are certain applications that are available to all kinds of operating systems. (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc..). However, there are certain applications (Games, Music players, Third party social networking apps) that are designed to work exclusively on one operating system, excluding the others.

3- Mobile Carrier

Choosing your mobile carrier and plan is the third important decision while choosing your smartphone. There are a lot of plans that include different smartphones with prices tailored to your needs. Ask yourself these questions in order to get your perfect mobile plan:
1- Which smartphone will I get? (iPhone – Android “Samsung – LG – …” – Windows Phone “Nokia – Samsung”)
2- What is more important for me: Internet data or Phone calls?
3- What is the cheapest plan pricing?

These are the most important 3 specifications you should carefully examine before getting your perfect smartphone. We hope you find a smartphone that is convenient to your needs.
