Hardware - Look for the hardware features that are essential in your dream phones. For instance, you can look for USB connectivity, GPS receiver, faster processor, etc. Storage capacity of the gadget also makes a large difference to the usability of the phone. Generally, smartphones have huge storage capacity. But, you can go for options like expandable memory. Presence of SD card slots makes the phone more useful. Look for the connectivity features and go for the cell phone that has maximum types of connectivity options for your use.

Usability - Your phone may have all advanced features that can make it a really sophisticated gadget. But are you able to handle the device easily? Touch screen is a remarkable feature of the phone. But, can you navigate through the menu conveniently? A screen with proper size and display is important. Almost all types of phone offer good keypads, but there are a handful of phones that offer a QWERTY keyboard to type a full-length email. Don`t select a phone that doesn`t have a good keyboard or a functional touch screen.

Connectivity - Connectivity is most important consideration in a phone these days. Always choose a smart phone that allows different options in connectivity. A Bluetooth headset with your phone enhances easy and hands-free calling through the phone.

When you can get the advantage of using accessing Internet on an IP network on your cell phone, why not go for the one that has the required features for such connectivity. If your phone is enabled with in-built WiFi connectivity, it is a better option.

Battery - Battery life can make or break the usability of any cell phone, and smart phone is not an exception. As the smartphones are meant for better functionality with more number of functional features, they consume more battery power. If your phone is WiFi enabled, it can use a lot of the battery power leaving the cell phone not last for long. Hence, get a phone that has longer battery life.

A careful analysis of the above smart phone features can help you acquire the device of a lifetime.
