The quest for the perfect cellphone
I want a new cellphone. My MTN contract has been due for an upgrade for the past three months, but I’ve been stalling.
In short, I want the “perfect” cellphone … if, indeed, there is such a thing. I hope I’m speaking for the many who are facing the exact same dilemma. I’m not 16 years old so “clever” gimmicks don’t impress me. Nor do pink phones Or phones trying to be iPods. Come to think of it, I wouldn’t want a gold phone designed by Dolce & Gabbana or one called “Chocolate” either. Even if Chocolate phones now come in pink.
No, I don’t want a Carl Zeiss lens. Who purposefully takes 3 megapixel photos with their phone?! If you’ve got the few thousand rand needed to purchase one of these super camera phones, surely you already own a digital camera? Yes, you’ll want to take one or two opportunistic snaps at some-or-other late night out, but do you really need a lens that takes up half the size of the phone?
