Dual SIM phones have been proven to be a convenience as well as utility for most people who had the habit of operating two separate phones simultaneously. Two Subscriber Identity Modules or SIMS can be loaded and used at the same time in a single cell phone. The advantage of this is mainly that you can use two numbers or two SIMS in a single cell phone which allows you to enjoy two separate mobile networks, keep a wider contact list and keep in touch with a wide amount of people than with a single SIM.

Another main advantage of using Dual-SIM phones is that more than one person can call or contact you at the same time which is a convenience for people heavily dependent on mobile phone usage. People using Dual-SIM phones also enjoy larger space on their phone including space for more images, videos and caller tunes. Some people also say that using Dual-SIM phones is advantageous because in some regions one of the networks may not be giving a signal while the other SIM of another network may give you a good signal.

Nokia’s first Dual-SIM phones are here and specifically the models C1-00 and C2 have dual SIM quality that makes them so special. Although, physically these two phones may look much simpler than the phone you may already be using but for most people, travelers and business people, Dual-SIM quality is extremely important. So you can ditch your current phone and start using Nokia C1-00 and C2 for convenience of using two SIMs at the same time. Both models of phones can use two numbers at the same time and you can send calls and text from the two numbers at the same time.

With the C1, you can switch between the two numbers with the single press of a button which is extremely important for travelers who may use a SIM at a foreign country. Other features in these phones include Bluetooth and VGA cameras. Specifically, the C1-00 has a microSD Card Slot, VGA camera, media player and FM radio. In addition to these features, the C2 features Ovi mail, chat and web browser which can keep you in touch with all your contacts.

The C1-00 is a double SIM phone in which users can switch between the two numbers with the touch of a button and users will also enjoy battery time of up to six weeks which is the longest for Nokia phones.

The C2 is a dual-SIM phone with a dual standby capability which means that the phone can keep both the SIM cards active at all times. You can receive and send text messages and phone calls on both the numbers at the same time. While the first SIM card is placed under the battery, the second SIM card is a hot-swapper in the sense that it can be taken out while the phone is on. Both of these phones are a great alternative to keeping two phones in your pocket at the same time and using them simultaneously.

From all the latest Mobile phones the iPhone 3GS stand out of the crowd with Improved performance and updated 3D graphics.

If you want speed you will like this: everything you do on iPhone 3GS is up to 2x faster and more responsive than iPhone 3G.

Form what I’ve seen the prices are not to hi; the iPhone contracts are affordable.

iPhone 3GS main features:

  • Video. Now you can shoot video, edit it, and share it — all on your iPhone 3GS. Shoot high-quality VGA video in portrait or landscape. Trim your footage by adjusting start and end points.
  • 3-Megapixel Camera. The new 3-megapixel camera takes great still photos, too, thanks to built-in autofocus and a handy new feature that lets you tap the display to focus on anything (or anyone) you want.
  • Voice Control. It is very easy to use. Voice Control recognizes the names in your Contacts and knows the music on your iPod. So if you want to place a call or play a song, all you have to do is ask.
  • Cut, Copy & Paste. Cut, copy, and paste words and photos, even between applications.
  • Landscape Keyboard. Just flip the phone and you will have a landscape keyboard.
  • YouTube. Watch YouTube videos wherever you are. Log in to your YouTube account to save and sync bookmarks and rate your favorites.

  • Search. Find what you’re looking for across your iPhone, all from one convenient place. Spotlight searches all your contacts, email, calendars, and notes, as well as everything in your iPod.

The most important features for me iPhone 3GS are the quality camera and internet/messaging functions.

Voice memos useful if you want to remember things.

As for the mobile phone deals I have seen so many. To find the best one you must know your needs and budget – I have seen offers which required to pay only of the phone and offers which gave the phone for a small amount of money but you must sign up for a monthly plan.

What is SIM only

I have seen a lot of ads for sim only plans and I have no idea what they were so I made a little investigation and written this post.

Sim only are the type of contract when you get a new new sim only without a new mobile.

This type of sim card deals allows you to keep your existing phone and phone number and benefit form cheaper tariff than contracting a new mobile phone contract.

The main advantage is price. Because you don’t receive a new phone the tariffs are reduced. Sim only contracts work the same way as normal mobile phone contracts except you keep your phone and phone number.

These things are very easy to operate with: just pop our SIM into your existing phone and you are done.

A typical Sim only contract looks like this:

  • you get 300 minutes
  • unlimited text messages
  • contract length 12 month
  • monthly cost £10.00

Sim only advantages:

  • you keep your phone number
  • you can start using it straight away with your existing phone
  • you get more minutes & texts for your money
  • you get better prices
  • easy to use
  • free next day delivery
  • free connection
