Tips on Buying a New Android Phone

Tips on buying an Android phone with the best specs

Android phones are number one in Indonesia now, and there are many teenagers and parents who use Android to communicate with their relatives or friends. It’s just that most of the times, most of the people only distinguish cell phones by one brand and don’t care what cell phone specs they get, preferring global brands. In this day and age, a cell phone made in China is often found to be somewhat unreasonable in price compared to global brands, so people assume that cheap cell phones will break quickly in a few weeks, but there is still no doubt about that Indonesian People buying cell phones from China and local people.

There are now many Chinese cell phones that have the best specifications, and some even have compete with well-known brands that are already world-class. Perhaps some people think that the most durable cell phones these days are Samsung, LG, Sony, and other global brands, but this is not necessarily true as cell phones get damaged quickly depending on how they are used. If the cell phone is used excessively, e.g. outside the limit (ROOTING) or dropped very heavily, this is of course your own fault and cannot be blamed on the cell phone manufacturer.

Chinese cell phones are widespread in Indonesia now, not because affordable price but the capabilities of cell phones are getting better. In addition, as of 2021, many brands are selling mobile phones with the latest features and supporting super-fast 4G networks and various other functions in it. Android smartphones deserve to be considered the best if they continue to evolve like this, and it is possible that they will later become handheld computers. Most of the people who are always looking to buy a new phone today will definitely ask about RAM, which is pretty good because RAM is needed to run multitasking applications well and the higher the RAM, the more applications can run at the same time without errors or too much force.

Buying at the big counter does not guarantee that the seller will understand everything and sometimes does not give complete information and simply says “yes” to what the buyer says. Here I would like to share tips on buying an Android smartphone so that you can get a phone with the quality you dream of. Not slow, of course, it is someone’s desire to have a smartphone and if you follow the instructions below I guarantee that users will get a reliable and high quality mobile phone. Here are some tips for buying an Android phone.

  1. R.A.M. – This is what I prioritize as the function of this RAM is to keep the phone in good condition when opening many applications. As a recommendation, please buy a phone with at least 1 GB RAM, as 512 MB RAM currently does not guarantee that it will be possible to open many applications quickly. It would be better if the budget is sufficient, please choose a phone with 2GB of RAM.
  2. processor – Choose a phone with a 1.2GHz processor and above, or it would be even better if you choose Octa-core, it can speed up the phone and certainly not make the phone slow.
  3. CPU & GPU – Please choose a phone with at least a MediaTek MT6582M CPU and Mali-400 MP2 GPU for HD games to run smoothly. To know more about CPU and GPU, please try to find robustness in google search engine.
  4. operating system – Over the years Android has got a new version, but currently I prefer to buy an Android phone with at least KitKat (4.2.2) OS
  5. Internal ROM – To meet mobile phone needs, you should buy Android phone with at least 8GB of internal storage, better still 16GB so that you can install more applications.
  6. Screen resolution & technology – A good phone needs to show a clear picture even in the hot sun, so you should choose a cell phone with IPS or Amoled technology. And for the screen resolution itself, you should choose an HD resolution so that the picture can be seen more clearly.
  7. Supported Networks – Due to the large number of cell phones that already have a 4G network but are still relatively expensive, it is actually good to choose 4G, but as the network in Indonesia is not yet extensive, consider a cell phone Select with at least a 3G network.
  8. camera – This is absolutely necessary to capture the moment, and here I am more concerned only with the back screen. Please choose a cell phone with at least 8MP camera, if you want to take selfies, please choose a front camera with at least 5MP.
  9. battery – Andorid smartphones are often mentioned by people for wasting batteries, of course when the battery is below 2000 mAh. But Android phones are better off if they have a battery over 2000mAh, and if so, please choose a Li-Po battery type as it won’t drop off quickly, although it charges infrequently, but most Li-Po Batteries are only for tablets, although Li-ion batteries are not a problem as long as you charge your phone regularly.

These are just a few tips for buying a new cell phone, Don’t be afraid to buy Chinese or local products because the phone manufacturer will certainly also make a device that is suitable for use and that will not quickly destroy or damage it. It is a shame for people who think that Chinese cell phones are damaged quickly because it is known that cell phones of famous brands can also be damaged and I repeat that this is because the owner of the cell phone does not take proper care of it . So now you no longer have to worry about buying local or Chinese phones and you have to prioritize the specs first.

Here I just want to share a few things from a couple of phones. Because there are things that are explained and buyers who don’t understand them can only accept them. Namely an internal function that is forced to perform better, namely the Zram function that can swap the internal memory, while this function is not too dangerous as it only swaps out to a relatively small size, but if you try to switching off the function, can mobile phone activity be easily and never forced when multitasking? Of course, there will be a difference to the multitasking area if the Zram function is deactivated, it is different if the original cell phone does not know how to use the coercive method the phone can operate more normally without being forced to run a program. If you have anything to ask, please comment.

Hopefully useful and good luck
