What to look for when you're shopping for your new phone

 

Every year, the variety of phones in the market significantly grows and changes. There are constantly new models being introduced, and each one offers even better features than the last.

So if you're standing there scratching your head and wondering which phone brand and model to go with, know this: you are not alone.

 

That's why we suggest that when looking for a new cellphone deal, it's important to get an idea of the type of phone you want and its features before making a decision. 

 

Smartphones come in various models, sizes, shapes, colours - you name it! Plus, they all have different capabilities that can meet your individual needs. For example, if you like to take lots of photos or videos, you may want to look into a smartphone with higher camera quality. On the other hand, if you need something simple to make phone calls and send text messages, then a basic phone will better suit your needs. Consider all the features available on each device when looking for a new cell phone deal to ensure you get one that best matches your requirements.

 

If you are looking for something specific, such as an Apple or Samsung device, then make sure you compare prices between different networks in order to get the perfect deal that caters to both your needs and your budget. You should also take into account any additional costs associated with signing up with a network provider, such as activation fees and data plans.

 

Research network operators in your area

 

When searching for a new cell phone contract, it's also important to research different providers and coverage in your area. Various networks, such as Vodacom, Telkom, and MTN, offer different deals and packages that may suit your needs.

 

Depending on who you choose, you'll receive added extras like airtime, data, minutes, SMSes, etc. To get the best value, make sure you aren't just going with the cheapest option but one with free extras, so you don't have to fork out more money for them. The good news is that Mobile Store allows you to compare the various offers from each network easily.

 

While we're on the topic of network providers, it's good not to base your decision on who has the best discount but rather consider the coverage of each provider in your area. The worst thing you could do is end up with poor reception or patchy service because your network provider doesn't have the best connection in your area. Researching different providers and their coverage will help ensure that you get the best service possible.

 

Compare contract lengths, costs, data plans, and incentives

 

Finally, it's important to remember that all phone contracts are not created equal. Before signing up, make sure to compare the length of contracts, costs, data plans, and any other features or incentives each provider offers (such as another free device!). Typically, a contract goes on for 24-36 months. This plays a huge role in getting the best total value for your wallet in the long run. That's why it's important to compare the pros and cons when looking for a new cell phone contract. Different networks have different length contracts that can suit your individual needs - so it is always worth shopping around to find the best deal. Costs vary from network to network, so make sure you compare all prices before signing up for any contract.

 

Some contracts offer the option to include insurance for your device in your monthly installment instead of getting insurance from a separate provider. Even if you are the type of person who keeps their things safe and takes care of them pretty well, you never know when disaster might strike.

 

That said, it's always an excellent option to check if insurance is:

 

a) reasonably priced with your provider and b) can be included in your contract.
