Smartphones vs Basic Phones: Which Is Better For You
September 18th, 2011
If you’re the type of person that needs to get online on the go, having a basic phone may be a thing of the past for you. If all the fancy applications are not your thing, a basic phone will be just right for you. Choosing which one just depends on your lifestyle and who you are.
PDA (or Personal Digital Assistant) devices came out about a decade ago with apps on them that made it possible to use them as cellular phones. They’re now called smart phones, but some people are just as happy with their basic phone. Why? The biggest reason is cost.
When you compare the price of a basic phone to a smartphone, its not hard to tell why many people would rather just go to the library or use their laptop to get online. Even though the prices of smartphones go down as the newer devices come out, a lot of customers still dont feel the need to pay that much money every month.
It all boils down to one question: Do you need a smartphone, or do you just want a smartphone. If it’s in your budget and you can’t live without one, go for it.
