For some, deciding upon a new mobile phone is the most difficult choice to make as it will be your daily partner, your confidant, your sidekick, for the next 18-24 months. Personal choice will always come into it and the look of the phone is important; however the process of selecting a phone that you’ll love needn’t be difficult. Let’s look at what should govern your choice when you compare mobile phones.

Do you Want, or Need, a Smartphone?

Smartphones are, essentially, multi-purpose personal devices that combine mobile computing and telephone capabilities. These give you access to a 3G network in order to receive an easier and more comfortable web browsing experience, downloadable multi-purpose apps and more often than not come with a touchscreen. If you use, or would like to use your phone also as a mobile computer, then a smartphone will do just the job. If however you are only interested in making calls and sending text messages, a more humble, and cheaper handset will be to your liking.

Android, Apple, BlackBerry or Windows?

If you choose to go down the smartphone route, you generally have the option between four main operating systems: Apple, Android, BlackBerry or Windows Phone. This is the software that powers your phone and can be an important choice to make.

Android is open source software, which means that it is free for companies and developers to use and adapt for their own purposes. This means that you can find many different types of phone that uses the Android operating system from Samsung and HTC to Sony Mobile and Huawei. If this sounds like it’s your kind of device, you can compare Android mobile phones with Mobilesplease.

The only phones to use the Apple operating system, known as iOS, are the famous iPhones. Buying an iPhone means you’re locked into using Apple’s suite of products, including iTunes and the App Store. It becomes very difficult to break free of Apple’s clutches when you’re a part of their gang, however with the quality of its products, you may not be struggling in the first place. We present all the iPhone deals from all the leading UK networks and retailers.

BlackBerry mobile phones are manufactured by a company called RIM (Research in Motion) and are universally adopted as a business phone because of its QWERTY button push keyboard. These devices have a distinct shape and the operating system includes the popular BBM or BlackBerry Message system, which allows you to text and share images among other BlackBerry users for free. There are a range of free BlackBerry phones available when you take out a contract, so it pays to compare BlackBerry phone deals to make sure you get the best available.

Windows Phone is primarily being used by Nokia, after its link-up with software giants Microsoft. They have produced an extremely slick operating system, which is fast and unique and makes full use of its competitive advantage, which is access to Microsoft’s Office suite as well as good integration with social media. The Nokia Lumia 800 is a fantastic example of a Windows Phone and we compare mobile phone deals on this and other Nokia handsets.
