Now, you might be exited when you here a phone specifications to be, 3500mah battery, 5" inch screen, 16mp camera and so on, but you end up buying the phone and disliking it. Why? Because there are some little thing you ignore in a phone. And most of these things, cheap, starter manufacturers ignore them too when building their phones.


1. Screen Resolution
Sure, most times you don't ignore screen size but you ignore its resolution, some phones with loud specifications, could actually come with a very poor resolution, so poor you would hate looking at the screen, watching movies or just viewing pictures as they would produce very little detail and poor colours with a lot of noise. For example HD 1080p is alright for a 5" screen, anything lower than that might not make good impressions to your eyes.



2. Battery Life
Yes Battey Life not Battery Size, these are two different things, look at it this way, a plate of rice for breakfast could last some people till evening, while others, by 12 noon, they are hungry again, the plate of rice here, is the battery size! And depending on the person which is the Phone, it could take them for either half a day or a full day, which is the battery life! So next time you want to buy a phone, don't just be carried away by 3500mAh, there are phones with just 2000mAh that would last twice longer.




Someone asked me to expanciate this point.
There are some companies that focus on optimising the phone to use less battery power, one company that has been the best at doing this is Sony, they put time in working out how an amount of power should keep the phone up, and cutting down every other place power leaks or is over used. Some other companies don't care, they believe the bigger the battery the longer the life. Again, Samsung galaxy note 4 has a battery size of 3220mAh and battery life of 8 hours 43 minutes but Samsung Galaxy Note 5(the newer version) has a battery size of 3000mAh(220mAh less) and a battrey life of 9 hours 11 minutes (28 minutes more) so think again.


3. Charge Time
Back to the plate of rice, some people (like my younger brother) can take hours just to eat a plate of rice, but others (like me), mehn no time, na sharp sharp tinz, it should take around 5-10 mins. Back to phones. Just because our phones has the same battery size does not mean they would use the same charging times, a phone might have just 1500mAh battery but would spend minutes longer than a phone with 3500mAh to charge. You know its very annoying to charge your phone for almost an hour, and its just in 60%. So next time you want to buy a phone, try to find out how long it takes to charge full.

4. Camera quality
Again, another thing we skip is the quality of pictures taken by the phone's camera, mega-pixel does not determine quality, no! Quality of a phone camera varies with devices even when they have the same mega-pixel, an example is the iPhone. Apart from recently announced iPhone 6s, previous versions had 8 mega-pixel cameras up to iPhone 4, but each had progressing camera quality, as iPhone 8-mega-pixel are compared to other phones 13/16/20 mp cameras. Likewise there is no 8 mega-pixel camera (aside from top brands) that can be compared to iPhone's own, and iPhone 8 mega-pixel even produce better pictures than some phone 16 mega-pixels camera. So you might want to check this out before buying your next phone and not just rely on the mega-pixels.

5. Camera Flash Brightness
All Flashlight aint the same!! Just like every touch light does not have the same brightness, there are phones with flashlight that if you see them, you would prefer the phone had no flash. Like my friend former tecno(can't remb the brand). A candle would out shine the flash on that phone. So don't just see "flash light" in the phone specifications and be happy, check how bright it is first before purchasing the phone.

6. Phone size
Again, Phone Size is not Screen Size, I'm writing this article believing people reading it are not too concerned with technology, so I'm trying to detail every point to be as easy to understand as possible. There is what is called Screen-to-body ratio, this is a specification category telling you how wide the phone bezel(the part on the front of your phone that is not the screen) are. This is to say even if two phones both have 5" inch screen, they won't actually have the same body size. Some phones are really sleek in your hands, and some are buggy, for example, samsung galaxy s6 has 5.1" inch screen, but some phones like iphone 6 with 4.7" inch screen is almost as big as it(the s6). This might be a problem when pocketing your phone or trying to put it in a purse, And you wanted a big screen phone. So next time, you might want to check this out.

7. Phone Weight
Some phones can break floyd mayweather HEAVYWEIGHT record, an example is one injoo(or whatever the name is) phone I held, it was what I call HEAVY, unlike the iPhone that's like paper. Weight becomes a problem when you carry your phone about especially without a bag, in your pockets whereby a heavy phone could draw your trousers down, or make your hands hurt while just holding it. You could actually use some heavy phones to build your muscles  (just exaggerating). So when next you're shopping, try to lift the phone up for a few seconds and see if you are comfortable with it.

8. Internal Memory (Android Phones Only)
If I you were to see the specifications of some phone, you would see 16gb internal memory, if Samsung tells you that, believe it. If Tecno tells you that, go and check the phone first! Now most phones especially the new brands and so called affordable phones, separates the actually internal memory from phones memory, with popular brands, these memory are joined together. Example is my fly era nano 8. The phone specification reads 4gb internal, well, the actual internal memory is 1GB, and it has a phone memory of 4GB. The internal memory is where the operating system and pre installed apps are, also with android there are some apps that can only stay in the internal memory, example are Whatsapp and BBM, and all primary app data stays in the internal memory, so it then get full sometimes, you get notifications that your memory is full, but can see more that enough space in your Phone memory, this is because the phone memory act like an in-built SD card. Not internal memory. But most phone would not write how big the actual internal memory is, but would write is as the phone memory or just write 4GB Rom. If you are the type that installs a lot of apps and updates all apps even stock apps, this is going to be a Big MIGHTY problem, the negative results creates an endless list. Its like having a limited memory phone with no SD card slot. So next time you on the verge to get a new phone, I would advice you pick one with a real internal memory, and real size of above 2GB. Or else go check out the phones actual internal memory size. By going to settings>>memory. Don't just read 16GB rom and relax.
