Hiya everybody,
I have to admit that although I am a “tech geek”, the current day cellular phone state of affairs is sort of complicated to me. Personally I do not even wish to TALK on the telephone, and my “dumb telephone” of alternative is the TracFone Motorola W260-4 (a fundamental naked bones $20 telephone – no web, no camera, no extra ringtones, no functions, and so forth.). However the telephone is nice for what it’s supposed to do: it makes nice telephone calls!! And in my a part of the nation I’ve nice protection (sign power) from the TracFone community (additionally with TracFone there aren’t any payments, no contracts, I purchase solely the airtime minutes that I really need). No sensible telephone for me!!
So with the entire confusion on the market (and since you could be out there for a cellular phone sooner or later), I assumed that right now I’d offer you a fundamental “primer half 1″ on cellphones and cell phone carriers. You may have to pay attention considerably as a result of as I mentioned earlier than – that is type of complicated! Right this moment I will simply provide the info and in my subsequent article I will offer you extra info plus my opinion.
1) “Good Cellphone”
A cell phone which has computerlike software program (functions) on it, digital camera, full keyboard, shade show, plus web and e-mail capabilities for environment friendly communication. The CPU on many smartphones is extra highly effective than the desktop computer systems of 5 years in the past!
2) “Dumb Cellphone”
Reverse of smartphone. A cell phone which has little or no superior options reminiscent of a big, vivid display screen, or functions reminiscent of e-mail and internet looking. Mainly simply makes telephone calls (like my Motorola W260-4). I find it irresistible 폰테크!
3) “Service Suppliers (Cell Cellphone Carriers)”
If you are going to purchase a cellular phone it’s a must to select a cell phone provider. There are various, however listed below are the highest 5 carriers in america (and a highly regarded telephone for every provider).
#1) Verizon Wireless…… (HTC Droid Unimaginable).
#2) AT&T….. (Apple iPhone 3GS).
#3) Dash….. (Palm Pre).
#4) T-Cellular….. (Google Nexus One).
#5) U.S. Mobile….. (HTC Contact Professional 2).
4) “Locked or Unlocked?”
A locked cellular phone is one which has been altered with a view to use just one explicit mobile community. If a provider “subsidizes” (supplies you with a free or low cost telephone once you signal a two 12 months service contract) they may “lock it” to their community. Locked telephones (the “lock” is a software program setting that retains the cell phone “loyal” to at least one provider), is not going to work with another provider.
An unlocked cellular phone can be utilized on any cellular phone provider. Unlocked cell telephones price extra up entrance however all software program restrictions have been eliminated and it is possible for you to to make use of the telephone with whichever provider you so want. Many third celebration distributors promote unlocked telephones and there are additionally many third celebration providers that supply to unlock your cellular phone for a payment (one thing I do not suggest).
In my subsequent article (half 2), I will proceed to “demystify” the complicated cellular phone state of affairs.
Professor Randy says: Certain, the cellular phone state of affairs might be complicated however do not despair! With a bit of examination and investigation of the info you will be absolutely conscious of what you are up in opposition to and absolutely ready to deal with it “head on”!
