Consider your budget, preferred operating system (Android or iOS), required features (camera, battery life, storage), and the type of usage (gaming, photography, multitasking). Compare models and read reviews to make an informed decision.

If you use your phone for basic tasks like calling, messaging, and browsing, 64GB might be enough. For heavy media use (photos, videos, apps), opt for at least 128GB or higher.

If cutting-edge features are important, go for the latest model. If you want to save money and don’t mind slightly older technology, an earlier model can offer excellent value.

 If you’re planning to keep your phone for a few years and live in an area with 5G coverage, it’s a good idea to future-proof with a 5G device. Otherwise, 4G is still widely supported.

Buying online often gives you more deals and options, but a store allows you to physically test the phone. Choose based on your comfort level and return policies.
