Cheap Smartphones
Like most of us, you’ve probably had a mobile phone for some time now, one that you’re able to use for the basics, like talking to your friends and family, or dashing off a short text message. We love our cell phones for helping us keep in touch with one another—and now, with smart phones widely available and much more affordable, we have even more mobile Internet connectivity and computing capability at our fingertips.
Making the switch to a smart phone can seem expensive to someone used to the cost of a regular cell phone, which is why a little research on the smart phone market can really pay off. With some research, you will be able to find deals on cheap smartphones. Reading up on smart phones will also make you aware of the kind of features you should be looking for, no easy feat considering the many wonderful functions this new class of cell phones offers. It goes without saying that a smart phone should have a QWERTY keyboard, but on top of that you might look for a handset that includes a high-quality camera (e.g. 3.2 megapixels or more) and an expandable microSD slot so that you can boost your cell phone’s memory. With more memory, you’ll be able to store music and podcasts on your smart phone, making it an even handier all-in-one mobile device.
See how a phone feels in your hand, and whether you feel more comfortable navigating its interface with a track pad, tracking ball, or touch screen. The BlackBerry Pearl 9100, for example, is sleek and small, and yet includes a 3.2 megapixel camera, and picture-sharing through MMS (multimedia messaging service). It’s got a fantastic optical track pad that replaces the clunkiness of a tracking ball, and yet also avoids the smudging that often goes hand-in-hand with touch screen smart phones.
The point is not only how a phone looks and feels, but also what it allows you to do. Think carefully about what kinds of things you’ll be doing online with your smart phone, and how fast you’ll need a connection to be. Will you be using this phone for your business, or is it just a convenient way for you to email friends when you’re riding the bus or out about town?

If you’re more interested in a smart phone for personal use, consider the HTC Snap, an inexpensive, popular smart phone that allows reliable access to email, instant messaging, and web browsing without all the bells and whistles. A slight step up for someone interested in a first-time smart phone for business purposes might want to consider the LG IQ, which connects to the web via a much faster 3G+ connection, and allows you to surf the web via Internet Explorer 7. As with the BlackBerry Pearl, which can accommodate BlackBerry applications (apps) such as Facebook, the LG IQ can be loaded up with Windows apps, many of which will help you extend your smart phone’s capabilities to time management, social networking, and business and financial planning—just to name a few.
BlackBerry, LG, and HTC all make a number of different smart phone models, so while this overview gives you a sampling of the features offered by their most popular smart phones, the best thing to do is go out and try them for yourself. Your nearest cellular mobility provider will likely have a number of BlackBerry, LG, and HTC smart phones, from which you can choose the model that best suits you.

3G SIM Card
Ever wondered what bit of your phone actually connects to your network, stores all your numbers and details and allows you internet access? It’s actually one of the smallest components, and it’s called a SIM (security identity module) card. The reason why you may not know what one looks like is that for the most part, contract phones come all set up and ready to go, with a 3G SIM already installed which never needs to be changed or replaced.
These small cards hold all the data about your number, which network you’re accessing, your data usage and dozens of other bits of information. It is becoming easier to buy a SIM card and a handset separately to avoid the high tariff contracts charged by most phone companies. Buying a 3G SIM card is incredibly simple and very cheap, so the main difficulty is knowing what offers are out there, and what represents good value for you.
An important task before setting out to buy a SIM card is to work out how many minutes you use currently, how many text messages you send and how much internet data you use, as these are the most common numbers that companies will wage price war with. Once you’ve worked those out, it’s time to go shopping. Each of the major phone companies (AT&T, Cingular, Verizon) offer one of two offers when it comes to SIM cards; a free SIM with a short term cheap contract, or you buy a pre-paid SIM, which has a certain amount of minutes and data attached, and then you top it up with more money once that initial lot has run out. Both can represent good value, depending on how you like to pay, and on what offers on minutes and data you can get.
Average prices from the big 3 companies mentioned about come in at around $20 a month for the first kind, which gives you 300 minutes and 250MB of internet data. It is possible to spend less, but the chances of over-running your credit means that you’ll probably end up paying more in excess data and minutes.
For the pre-paid SIM, you shouldn’t be paying more than $10, but these will only get you 100 minutes and 100MB of data, both of which run out fairly quickly. The pre-pay SIMs are better value for people who want a phone just for an emergency, or to get their children started. The contract SIMs represent better value to the average cell user.
