It’s good to have an idea of what your future smartphone should look like before you buy it – θήκες κινητών-.

Should I buy a cheap or an expensive smartphone?

Here things are purely subjective since everyone knows their financial capabilities and knows more or less how much money they can allocate.

Of course, it is best to think about how much money “should” be available or to put it better how much it is worth to have a smartphone that meets their needs, whatever they are.

Cheap (entry-level) smartphones

If you are a novice user and have never had a smart phone before, going to get the latest iPhone model or some other flagship from Samsung may not be a very wise choice.

This is because you will probably never use the full potential of these devices. You will of course do your job with the above, but you would do the same with a device that would cost you 300-500 euros less.

So if you belong to this category, prefer a cheap phone. There are endless models of all the well-known companies (except maybe Apple) with very high performance and very affordable prices. Mobile phones in this category range from 100-200 euros. It is good to avoid very cheap phones (under 100 euros) because they will provide little possibilities.

In general, the difference between cheap and more expensive phones is that they usually focus on a good feature and give weight to it. For example, if you are interested in taking pictures with your smartphone, you will find a cheap one with a relatively good camera. If you want performance you will find one with enough memory, but worse with the other features.

So if you look for it a little, you can find a cheap phone that covers the basics you want to do. If you now have higher demands or want more features at the same time, then look at the next two categories.

High – end devices

Expensive mobile phones that are at the forefront of technology since they have very powerful features and the most innovative capabilities, are called high-end, although it has become common to call them flagships, due to their technological displacement.

These devices are Apple’s iPhone, Samsung S series, LG G series, Huawei P series and other companies respectively.

High-end devices have very good screens both in quality and resolution, very good cameras, brutal batteries and of course many extra features, such as full waterproofing, fingerprint reader, etc., which in cheaper devices are considered unnecessary luxury.

If you want to always have the latest technology in your hands then you will definitely invest in such a device, however you have to put your hand deep in your pocket, as smartphones in this category usually range in price from 500-1000 euros, especially when first released. Later their price usually drops a bit, but not dramatically.

What screen to choose

The on-screen options for the smartphone are many. So many that many people wonder what is best and how to decide what to get. The truth is that the “best” screen for each person is something different, otherwise companies would only release one type.

What screen size to choose for your smartphone

The appropriate size of the screen of the mobile phone in inches, has to do with the use for which the phone is intended. If you want to play games or watch movies then the bigger the screen the better. Also browsing the internet is much more comfortable on a large screen than on a smaller one.

Of course, this does not mean that you should overdo it. This is because you may not feel comfortable with a mobile phone with a 6 “screen that does not fit in your pocket or that you can not handle well.

Especially women or those who have small hands, it is good to prefer a slightly smaller screen. To find the right size for you, try handling smartphones with different screen sizes either in a mobile phone shop, or editing the phones of friends or acquaintances.

Do not overdo it with the screen size of the mobile. The most common screen diagonal dimensions on the market right now start at 3.5 inches and go up to 6. From 5.5 inches and up are the so-called phablets (something between a phone and a tablet).

What screen resolution should the smartphone have?

Many people think that because the screen of a mobile phone is small compared to the screen of a computer or TV, they can choose any resolution without any problem. In other words, they think a high-resolution screen might be unnecessary. This of course is not the case. In fact, the higher the resolution of the mobile screen, the better.

The most common analysis options are:

854 x 480 pixels

This is usually the screen resolution of very cheap smartphones. It is generally considered a poor and outdated analysis. Even on entry-level phones you will find better resolution

1280 x 720 pixels

This resolution is known as HD Ready (High Definition). You will find it in most entry level and maybe in some cheap mid-range smartphones. It is generally a satisfactory analysis, but so far. For better clarity you may need to go for something better.

1920 x 1080 pixels

This is the full High Definition (Full HD) that you will find in most midrange phones, but also in some flagships. It is a very satisfactory resolution which is enough for the average user. Whether you want to view photos, surf the internet or even play videos, a smartphone with Full HD screen will cover you perfectly.

2560 x 1440 pixels

This resolution is the intermediate stage between Full HD and Ultra HD resolution and is known as QHD. This is probably the best choice. You will only find it on high-end devices. On a smartphone with this resolution you will be able to enjoy maximum clarity in any task.

3480 x 2160 pixels

This is Ultra HD resolution, also known as 4K. It is not widely used in smartphones, as many companies consider it an exaggeration. You will find it in some high-end devices, although in our opinion it is rather unnecessary.
