CHOICE BY FEATURES » 05/12/08
Offering a feature rich phone has never been of so much importance. In the 1990s a contract and therefore the SIM card were of the utmost importance – the phones offered were all very similar in both design and functionality. Nokia, Motorola, Ericsson and Samsung phones all did the same thing – other than telephony capabilities the phone may have a stopwatch and a calendar making them very hard to distinguish. The phone would likely be the same or do the same regardless of the operator; it was more important to choose the correct operator that offered the tariff that was most compatible with you.
Today the phone is often what determines the operator a consumer or business chooses. Phones have undergone vast changes, not in their fundamental designs – the OS has remained largely unchanged, but their have been many technological advances and improvements made. Today mobile phones are often termed mobile devices offering a plethora of functions; the ability to take high res stills, 30 fps video capture, multiple gigabytes of memory, ever quicker processors, mp3 players, transferring of files, true web browsing capabilities and more.
