Things to consider when buying a new mobile phone
Mobile operating systems
The two most popular OS are Android (made by Google) and iOS (for iPhones and Apple products). It’s a good idea to check compatibility with your other smart devices before you choose.
Screen size
Big or small? Big screens are great for entertainment and typing on, while small phones are easy to use with one hand. Plus, they fit into smaller bags and pockets.
Battery life
Most good mobiles have all-day battery or more, so you can use them on-the-go without worrying about charging. Plus, some fast chargers can get you from 0% to 50% in 15 minutes.
Camera
Most phone cameras have multiple lenses, letting you shoot everything from super close-ups to epic landscapes. Also, look out for AI – it gives you the best shot every time.

What is the best operating system for mobile phones?
The most popular mobile operating systems (OS) for smartphones are iOS and Android. iOS runs exclusively on Apple devices such as iPhones, iPads, and Apple Watch. Android is made by Google and runs on most other phone brands.
Your choice might come down to the type of phone you’ve had in the past and feel comfortable with. You might also want to consider how compatible it’ll be with your other smart tech such as tablets and laptops. For example, if you’re completely at home with your Apple iPad, it makes sense to choose an Apple iPhone. Then you can easily share data and personal info across devices.
