The Christmas shopping season is in full swing now and on the top of many people’s list is a new cell phone. Just a couple of years ago the hottest features you could get on your mobile phone were cameras, maybe video, ringtones, and ringback tones. Now mobile phones have matured and the features are endless. From smart phones to MP3 capable phones there is a phone that’s perfect for that technophile on your Christmas list.
The most desired phone of the year is the Apple iPhone. The iPhone does just about everything but open bottles. With Internet, photo, video, mp3, and more it is everything anyone could want in one handy palm sized tool. It does have some downsides. Mainly the cost at $400 bucks! The other big downside is that you are locked into using AT&T as your mobile carrier. Sure you can hack it to make it work with other carriers, but do you want to mess around with a $400.00 phone?
Another popular phone is the Nokia N95. This smart phone is more powerful than your first computer, and maybe even your current one. This fun phone is loaded with a 5 megapixel camera, GPS, Wi-Fi, a radio tuner, Bluetooth, and it still has room for a phone. This is one expensive phone though running as high as $700, but I’ve seen them in the $400’s lately. I’m not buying this phone yet, but I am looking for smart phones to become more affordable in a few years.
Speaking of affordable phones that are really hot this year look at the UpStage from Samsung. If you are a Sprint subscriber this might be the perfect phone for 2008. It has a camera and stores up to 2000 songs. The phone runs around $150, but rebates are offered as high as $100 making this a very affordable phone with a final cost of $50. Sprint is offering music downloads and a lot of other cool features for this slim phone.
If the person on your Christmas shopping list is a music fan the phone for them this year is the Juke from Samsung. This sweet device has an MP3 player, a camera with more features than most digital cameras on the market, voice activated calling, and a load of other features to numerous to mention in this short article. So, for a super hot phone check out the Juke.
The Motorola RIZR Z3 is a fun phone with more features than most will need or want and can be had for about $80 bucks after rebates. With a 2.0 megapixel camera, MP3 player, Bluetooth, and good looks it is a complete package. This phone is on my list this year. You can get this phone is several stylish colors.
Mobile phones have finally arrived. The features we have been waiting for are now affordable. Even the free phones you get with new service come with features like cameras, video, and MP3. If your special someone loves technology this is the year to get them a new cell phone. Happy shopping.
