Choosing a handset

Article Abstract:

Mobile phones are available in many different guises and with numerous features, but some features are more important than others. The ability to change the handset's ringing tone is useful, especially the facility to silence the phone when it is inconvenient to take a call. While handsets are becoming ever smaller, it may be better to have a larger, heavier handset so that losing it is less likely. Other points to consider when choosing a mobile phone are presented.
