What I expect from my mobile phone
When you have chosen your network provider it can be a royal pain in the proverbial sifting through all the handsets available. Everywhere you look there is media telling you which phone to choose. Television, magazines, billboards, radio. Then you have your mates telling you why their phones are the best and getting personally offended when you inevitably choose something different.
The important thing is to decide what you want the most from your contract phones. This means (and this if important) what you rely on it for the most. Secondary is what you would LIKE it to do for you.
Here is my priority list of expectations from my mobile phone handset/contract:
- Receive and make calls
- Send and receive texts/MMS
- Access the WWW…ok I’ll settle for facebook
- Take some lovely photographs (on drunken nights out which can be posted to MySpace with the main aim of embarrasing your friends)
- Not find extra charges on my bill for doing all of the above
- Not dial people by accident when I’m in a particular situation with my lady friend
- Not resemble a brick
- Not resemble a credit card
- Not need to be re-charged after a 30 minute facebook browsing session
My ‘wish list’ of preferences for my mobile phone is to be able to watch YouTube videos. Saying that I certainly wouldn’t pay more or sacrifice my essential list to be able to do all that. I do use a PC at home and I doubt my mates at the pub would appreciate me sitting in the corner watching catch up TV on my mobile phone.
There are several good mobile phone handsets looking around and to be honest it is the leading providers that I prefer to use if only for their wide range of handsets. But they also provide the best service when it comes down to it and they do have the best and most efficient customer care (although some people’s experiences may beg to differ!). So the top mobile phone providers on my list are:
3 mobile – Get the latest 3G mobiles, the best in mobile services and content such as mobile internet, music downloads and mobile TV, and connect to the Internet with Mobile broadband.
Nokia – Wide range of mobile phone devices and monthly contract deals and of course the full range of Nokia handsets the moment they come onto the market.
