Smartphone buying guide: the 6 criteria that really matter

1. Start with your use, not the brand

A phone for calls and writing has different needs from a phone intended for photography, gaming or work. Write down the three uses that matter most before comparing pages.

2. Set a realistic budget

Your budget should include storage capacity and the time you want to keep the device. A slightly more expensive model can be more comfortable if it avoids storage that is too limited.

3. Compare useful specifications

Focus on storage, connectivity, battery, size and condition. The most impressive specifications on a page are not always the ones that improve your everyday life.

• Storage suited to your photos and apps
• 4G or 5G for your plan and area
• New or Grade A refurbished condition clearly stated
• Available color and real stock
• Accessible legal warranty and return process

4. Check the after-sales experience

A good experience does not end at payment. Tracked delivery, a clear return policy and a visible warranty make it easier to order with peace of mind.
