Smart phones are the new generation of cell phone. They are as big of an advancement as the cell phone was to the landlines. So how come more people aren't using them? Well here I will list the pros and cons and ultimately whether or not you should invest in one, whether it is economical or not for you.
What is a smart phone? A smart phone is a wireless cellphone that has the ability to perform a multitude of tasks normally not done by regular cellphones. These include e-mail, web browsing, data applications such as documents and excel. Also some of the newer smart phones have really broadened the gap, allowing capabilities such as touchscreen, 3G and large storage for mp3s and video files.
Pros: Smart phones can act as an mp3 player, I know personally I never have to carry around my mp3 player anymore as I can just carry around my smart phone and use it in the car, or when walking or whenever. The amount of storage can now go to 32GB for the iphone 3gs which is an incredible amount of data for videos or mp3 files or pictures.
Also the touchscreen and motion sensing applications that can be run on these smart phones can be unique and intuitive allowing for an ease of use that easily surpasses any previous generation of phone on the market.
Cons: One of the biggest problems is the battery life of most smart phones. As they have a processor and do complex tasks they use up a lot of their battery. Also their bright and high resolution displays often eat up battery life. However soon to be on the market are Organic LED phones which will almost double the battery life of current smart phones.
The biggest con of owning a smart phone is the sometimes outrageous monthly fee. You can end up spending over 100 dollars a month which ends up being 1200 dollars a year on your phone service! This is on top of the 200-400 dollar price range that they typically require when you first buy the phone as well.
With all of these things considered you first need to figure out why you want to buy this smart phone or not. Is it mainly used for entertainment purposes, or do you plan to run your business from it, or do you think it's just a cool accessory and don't really plan on using some of the more unique features. If you are not too serious about using this for business or for helping with important activities in your life then you should seriously consider the cost, because a 1200 dollar yearly bill is something to be considered. However if you have the extra money, it will entertain you endlessly and is a conversation topic.
Looking over all of the pros and cons to summarize you should figure out if you have the extra money to spend, if you want it to consume your personal life or expand it, do you really need the extra features or do you just want it to look cool.
