Screen Size

This affects the actual size of your smartphone and the overall user experience. Phones with small screens are easier to carry around, while large-screen phones are easier to work with. Higher-resolution screens offer sharper images so pick a screen with Full HD (1920x1080 pixels) or higher.

OLED screens have a more intense black depth and better contrast than LCD screens. So, if you love to play games on your phone, note the screen refresh rate (the number of times your screen updates with new images per second expressed in Hertz). The higher the refresh rate (the greater the number of Hz), the smoother the picture on your smartphone.

Capacity

There are two types of capacity: memory capacity (RAM) and storage space (ROM). RAM affects how efficiently your phone works. A larger RAM allows you to store and run more apps, saves time for reloading apps and offers smoother operation. Choose a phone with 4GB of RAM or above. If you operate multiple windows or love to play e-games, select an even larger RAM (more than 8GB).

ROM refers to the amount of data stored in the smartphone. The larger the ROM, the more data it can store. If you use your phone mainly to browse the web, to communicate and download a handful of videos, a smartphone with 128GB is sufficient. If you like to take lots of photos and videos or play mobile games, pick a phone with at least with 256GB of ROM. But if you need to use your phone for work or shooting 4K videos in HD, get one with 512GB of ROM or more.

Battery Life

This refers to the length of time your phone can run before it needs to be recharged. Refer to the mAh value of your phone battery. The higher the mAh, the greater the battery capacity, so the longer it will last before it needs to be recharged. If you are looking for a phone with a longer lasting battery life, then look for models with a battery capacity of 5,000mAh or more. Other factors that affect the battery life of a phone include how brightly you run the screen. and what type of network your phone is operating on. A 5G network, for example, consumes more power than a 4G network.

Water Resistant

This feature is common and most phones with IP67 or IP68 levels of protection can be submerged in water without damage.

On a final note, choose according to your budget and usage and it won’t be difficult to pick your ideal smartphone.
