scenario #6;

"She says she wants to be able to buy apps. What are apps what sort of useful apps could she access? What types of phones can buy and use apps?"

'App' is short for application, which is designed to help the user perform specific tasks. There are many apps that are suitable for everyone. Depending on her age, she may prefer apps for music, students, work, fun and games, social networking, etc. There is a very large range of applications to choose from and they can be useful to her. Every phone have the basic apps - like SMS, mobile music, games and pictures. Apple's App Store has the world's largest collection of mobile apps, meaning the phone with the widest range of apps was the iPhone.

"She wants to take lots of video and photos. How do I know which phone can store the most videos and photos?"

The best phones to get, especially for the capturing of videos and photos, are the ones with a relatively large memory and a decent megapixel camera. The phones that can store the most videos and photos are the ones with large amounts of GBs. The iPhone 4 has 32GB is able to store up to 12 000 photos and it also has a good quality camera. For cheaper phones, you can purchase miniSD cards, that you need to buy more if all the space is used up.

scenario #4;

"Are all phone as smart as one another? What is the smartest phone at the moment and why?"

No, and this is because there are so many different types of phones. Though obviously, the smartest phones are the smartphones. Of all the smartphones, however, Apple's iPhone is regarded as the 'smartest' phone at the moment. It has many great features including: FaceTime (video call), Retina Display (sharp and high-resolution screen), Multitasking (switch between apps), HD video recording and editing, 5MP camera, etc. These features as well as many others are superior compared to other smartphones at the moment.

scenario #3;

"My daughter wants a phone with a capacitive touch screen. They seem more expensive, what advantages do they offer over other types of touch screen?

There are three types of touch screen: capacitive, resistive and surface acoustive wave. Over the other two, the capacitive emits 90% of light ray, making the screen clearer compared to the other types of touch screen. The capacitive touch screens can only function with the use of fingers, meaning that a stylus would not be needed. The benefit of this is that she wouldn't be worrying about losing a stylus. Also, it has a long life because of its resistivity to things other than human skin.

scenario #2;

The mother says "She wants the camera in the phone to be at least 5 Meg thingys, what does this mean? Does she need it?"

The correct term is actually 'megapixels', which can be abbreviated as MP. This term is used to refer to the number of pixels that the camera can hold in an image. The higher the megapixels, the better the quality of the image you can take with the camera. For phones, 5 megapixels is very decent. If she likes to take photos, then this amount of megapixels is recommended.

scenario #1;

My daughter insists that her phone be Wifi capable. What does this mean? Why does she need it?

A phone that is 'Wi-fi capable' means that the device can be able to access the Internet through a wi-fi enabled network. I wouldn't necessarily say that she would need it. However, having a phone that is wi-fi cable would be advantageous especially if she tends to access the Internet (whether it's for social networking sites or Facebook, or watching videos on Youtube). It is extremely convenient that just about everywhere she will go, she will be able to easily access the Internet and do the activities that she enjoys.
