Your smartphone helps you stay in touch with the world, pay bills, and be a thriving member of society. So why wouldn’t you want the best phone possible? Then again, you don’t want to pay an arm and a leg for one either — getting the best value for your money is what really matters. If you need guidance for selecting a new Verizon® wireless smartphone, Krogen’s Do It Best in Boscobel, WI, recommends factoring a few tips into your decision.

Here are five factors to keep in mind when shopping for a new Verison wireless smartphone:

  • Start With the Operating System: Choosing your operating system first will help narrow down your choices. If you have a decent budget, don’t mind only using an iPhone®, and want immediate access to the latest mainstream apps, then iOS is probably the right operating system for you. Android OS, on the other hand, is ideal for people who have a limited budget and want more choice when it comes to phones.

  • Don’t Worry About Screen Resolution: It’s good to choose a phone screen that’s bright enough for outdoor use and has rich colors. Resolution, however, is not that important. Unless your heart is set on a phone with fantastic resolution, your device will most likely be too small for you to even notice the quality.

Unlocked phones typically only work with GSM carriers (e.g. they use SIM cards). There are some exceptions, but the easiest way to take advantage of the Verizon network is to use a Verizon wireless phone.

  • Storage Matters: Never buy a phone with a storage capacity that’s 16GB or less, as this isn’t nearly enough space to run even a minimal number of apps. Aim for 32GB or higher to ensure you have space for everything. Android phones let you expand your storage even more with a mircroSD slot.

  • Choose a Phone With Decent Battery Capacity: Your future self will thank you for choosing a phone that doesn’t guzzle battery power. Batteries with lower capacities than 3,000 mAh are not worth your attention.
