Cell Phone Facts You Should Know.

Change has become part of human life today especially in technology. Cell phone technology is one of the changes the world has witnessed and probably as a user you feel inundated with all the changes that are coming about with cell phones. When purchasing these mobile phones, here are some few facts to consider before making your choice.

Downloading Woes: When downloading Web features, games, ringtones, wallpaper, and screensavers, be sure there are no recurring fees. Although companies may not state it upfront, some of these features have recurring monthly fees. If you purchase a cell phone for your child, find out if you can block these features. Or, find out if there's a way that you as a parent can order features, but your child cannot.

Phone Batteries: Every cell phone user occasionally experiences the "race against battery life" on their cell phone. You try to use up every ounce of power there is before recharging. Unfortunately, this can cause many problems with your battery later on. Primarily, it could shorten the lifespan of your cell phone battery

Some of the tips to help prolong the lifespan of your cell phone battery are listed below:
i)Keep your backlight off unless you know for sure you'll need it.
ii)When traveling in areas where there is no network coverage keep your phone switched off because the cell phone uses more power while trying to locate a network.
iii)Limit your conversations. The longer you talk the longer you talk, the higher the power consumption.
iv)Also, limit your usage of cell phone games or Internet browsing. These use a lot of battery power as you keep on giving the cell phone commands.

Factory mobile phone Warranties: Some cell phone companies will replace your cell phone if it breaks or is lost or stolen. Consider the warranty before buying. Cell phones are typically carried everywhere you go: in a purse, pants pocket, shirt pocket, on a belt case, and even out in wet weather. With cell phones being so mobile, they can easily get broken or damaged. The warranty will give you peace of mind when carrying and using your cell phone.

Online Phone Purchasing: When buying cell phones online, be sure the phone is up-to-date and carries all the features you want. You can buy your cell online and still visit a local venue to purchase minutes or to sign up for a contract. Just be sure and buy from a company you trust.
