Keep IT Simple

There are different mobile phones to choose from. But aside from what you see in different mobile phone stores there are other phones in other countries that you could actually order online. Because of the popularity of iPhone, there are other phones in the market, particularly from China that actually looked like an iPhone. Although it has limitations such as it doesn’t have any Wifi, it practically compensates in some things. There are functions in the mobile phones that are PDF reader and Analog TV. It also has a touch screen and although it doesn’t have QWERTY, it compensates with the regular pad like in most regular phones.

However, there are things that you should remember about these mobile phones. Among them is that these phones are not shock-proof, water-proof and dustproof. Although most mobile phones are, these types of mobile phones are really vulnerable to external elements so you need to add extra care to these mobile phones. If the phone you purchased is touch screen, you don’t have to use them. Unfortunately, the best thing you can do to save and extend the life of your mobile phone is to use the keypad.

The next thing that you should remember is the memory capacity. Unlike the iPhone, the memory capacity of Chinese mobile phones is usually between 1gb to 4gb but it can be extended up to 2gb with an external memory. But you don’t have to stack up all the music and information you have in mobile phone. As much as possible use only the memory capacity of your mobile phone up to 75% so that way, the storage capacity will not be worked up to its full capacity. Remember that every part of the mobile phone is quiet fragile. To keep the prices down, Chinese manufacturers opted to use cheaper flash drives instead of a very expensive yet durable flash drive.

If you happen to purchase this type of mobile phone in a local store, have the mobile phone scanned or defragged before accepting it. There is still a great chance that the mobile phone companies could trick you into thinkning there are 4gb as a memory capacity but it actually only has 1/3 of it. By defragging the flash drive before you purchase it, you will know what is the true capacity of the mobile phone. Another thing is, you have to scan the mobile phone when you insert them to your computer through USB. Don’t open the phone immediately but scan the flash drive first before opening any files in them. This will prevent the virus from spreading into your OS or other parts of your computer software. Just the same, don’t plug the software to other computers that you don’t trust.

The great thing about this is that the price of these type of mobile phones. The price doesn’t usually go more than US$200. Branded mobile phones could go as much as US$600. If you’re an extra careful person who doesn’t need to have those add-ons such as Wifi, you can have these types of mobile phones and it should last for years to come.
