Basic Requirements That You Should Look For in a Smartphone

Basic Requirements That You Should Look For in a Smartphone

What would have been called the humble mobile phone of the past, is a lot more than just a way to call people today. It offers a complete package with a myriad of applications – a way to run our daily lives. Ask anyone if they can imagine even a day without their smartphone and you realize how crucial smartphones have become to our very existence.

Looking to purchase a top phone? Here are some parameters you must compare smartphones on before you make a purchase.

Operating system

The operating system (OS) is the software platform on which your phone runs. In an iPhone, the OS is iOS; in an android phone, it is Android. If you make heavy use of Google apps like Chrome, Drive, etc. on a daily basis, it makes sense to opt for Google’s Android. If you value style with performance, iOS is your pal with a simpler interface and better hardware integration.

Processor

The processor functions like the brain – it is the powerhouse of your phone. The more advanced the processor, the better your phone’s performance. If you’re a designer, photographer or play a lot of video games, choose a smartphone with a fast processor. Top phones in 2019 feature a Snapdragon 855. In Apple devices, the latest processor in the market is the iOS 12.4.

Battery

Battery capacity is measured in milliampere-hours, or mAh, where a higher number stands for a higher capacity. However, a higher capacity does not guarantee the longevity of charge. The display resolution, processor power, and usage capacity – all determine how much battery your phone is going to eat up. When you compare mobiles, batteries in the range of 2,500-3,000 mAh are the minimum you should look at.

Camera

Simply looking at specifications doesn’t give one an idea of how good the phone camera is. Two phones with identical camera specifications can deliver vastly different images. While selecting a phone camera, check for a higher resolution – the number of pixels that make up your photo/video. The higher the resolution, the better is the image. Go for a camera with a 12+ MP to get at least decent photos.

Storage

We receive hundreds of messages, files, photos, etc. on a daily basis. Cloud storage options including Google Drive or Apple Photos have made things easier, but having a phone with sufficient inbuilt storage capacity is still important. When storage runs low, your phone slows down. The best phones feature capacity upwards of 16 GB (light users) and 64 GB (heavy users). You can also look at phones with expandable memory options.

Display

You need not be an expert to tell a great display from an average one. Most mid-range and lower-end phones use a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), which offers a decent colour display but higher battery consumption. The best smartphones use Organic Light-Emitting Diode (OLED), which delivers superior quality and pixel display.
