10 Reasons to Upgrade Your Cellphone

Posted on April 27, 2011 by admin

Your cellphone works as well as it always has. You can call out, others can call you, why upgrade? There can be several reasons for upgrading your phone to one with additional features or a newer model.

1. It doesn’t have a camera. If you’re the only one you know who doesn’t have a camera phone, maybe it’s time to do an upgrade. A camera feature is not something you necessarily pay extra for anymore. It has become a standard feature for most cell phones. It eliminates the need to carry both a cell phone and camera with you.
2. Faster texting. If you use your phone for text messaging, and you find your keyboard slow and cumbersome, you may want to consider upgrading your phone to one with a bigger Qwerty keyboard. There are several models to choose from with most providers.
3. Email options. Do you wish you could receive and send emails while you are away from home, but it isn’t an option on your current phone? You may find it worthwhile to upgrade to cell phone and a data plan that will provide that option for you.
4. Music options. Tired of carrying around an MP3 player and your phone? Upgrading your phone to one with greater music options may be the solution. Look for a phone that lists  music playing as one of its key functions.
5. Web browsing. Do you want to stay connected to the internet throughout the day when you aren’t sitting at your computer or logged on to your laptop? Web browsing is no longer limited to one or two phone choices. You will have a multitude of upgrade options available with this feature.
6. Social networking. Are you feeling left out because you are tweeting and posting to facebook throughout the day like all your friends? If social network sites are a big part of your life, you won’t want to be stuck with a cell phone that leaves you out of the loop.
7. Outlook sync. If Outlook is your main file cabinet of digital information, you should have a cellphone that will sync with that program and keep all your contact information and calendar information up to date on your phone as well as your computer. An upgrade to a smart phone will be worth the investment.
8. Greater data speed. Is there a new phone with faster connect time? If data speed is important to you, then don’t hesitate to upgrade. If your current phone is still in good condition, you won’t find it difficult to sell.
9. Free upgrade offers. If your provider is offering a free upgrade and you plan to stay with them as a carrier, take the upgrade. It’s always good to have a backup phone in the house in case something goes wrong with your phone, or you lose it.
10. Adding family members to your plan. If it’s time to finally get the teenagers their own phones, why not pass down your old phones to them and let the parents get the new upgraded phones which are available with the additional lines?

Some cell phone upgrades will cost you nothing. Others will have a price tag with them, but often at a reduced price. If an upgrade will give you the phone you want and the price isn’t exorbitant, you might as well take the plunge.
