These two practices are a waste of smartphones
|
Smartphones play an increasingly important role in our lives. They can even be called "universal tools in pockets". We can use them to arrange our schedules and to obtain academic, scientific, and entertainment information. Of course, the core of smartphones is still used for communication, but communication capabilities have now become a small part of all the functions of smartphones. In 2010, the total number of smartphone users in the world exceeded the 1 billion mark, and this number is still growing. According to market research firm eMarketer, in 2014, the number of mobile phone users in the world will reach 4.55 billion, of which the number of smartphone users will reach 1.75 billion. This means that nearly a quarter of the world's total population uses smartphones. However, although smartphone technology is developing rapidly and more and more people are using smartphones, many of us are not actually using smartphones well, or are wasting our smartphones. There is a common phenomenon that the smartphones in our hands do not play the "strength" of their applications. So what practices are a waste of smartphones? 1. Using low-quality applications How much did you spend on your smartphone? If you are using a mainstream smartphone, then the price you spend is about $200 (contract price). However, for many users, being willing to spend this money to buy a mobile phone does not mean that they are also willing to spend this money to buy high-quality applications. The vast majority of smartphone users hold expensive mobile phones and search for free applications in the app store, or occasionally download low-priced applications that cost no more than $2 when they have to. This practice is of course understandable, but one consequence of doing so is that the mobile phone is filled with various low-quality applications, full of advertisements, and even applications that may leak user privacy data. Of course, these applications can also help you solve some problems, but they cannot let you appreciate the true capabilities of smartphones. Buying an application that costs around $5 is just a small investment compared to smartphones that cost hundreds of dollars. Even some more expensive applications, such as those that cost more than $14.99, are insignificant compared to the price of the smartphone itself. However, spending a little money to buy these high-quality applications is actually very obvious. For example: the application takes up less space on the phone's storage, the application is less likely to crash, better customer support, and compared to free applications, you can use more advanced features, which brings you more convenience. 2. Not thinking about the role of smartphones when buying other devices In today's world, all kinds of devices are beginning to try to access the Internet, which is the popular "Internet of Things". However, many of us did not think about the role of smartphones when buying various electronic devices. There are many products in the field of Internet of Things, but all of these products have one thing in common: that is, these devices can be controlled by smartphones. Instead of buying ordinary small appliances such as coffee machines and light bulbs, it is better to invest in some coffee machines and light bulbs that support the Internet of Things. Such an investment can make your life more convenient, and you can control these appliances more easily, and all you need is the smartphone you have been using for a long time. Imagine that you have been on a plane all night to go home from abroad. You hope to drink freshly brewed coffee when you get home in the morning. All you need to do is control the coffee machine at home with your smartphone before you get home, and let it brew a cup of coffee that suits your taste for you. Isn't this a more comfortable life? Don't know which devices can be remotely controlled by smartphones? Here's a tip for you. Philips smart bulbs, Sonos PLAY:1 speakers, Revolv Hub smart terminals, etc. There are many such products on the market. A smartphone is not just a phone that can take photos and upload them to Facebook. It can also be a small distribution terminal that you can take anywhere and use to control various devices around you, making your life easier. Imagine a life like this: when someone knocks on the door, you pick up your phone and know that it is your partner who you have been waiting for all day. When you are having dinner with her, you sit at the table and pick up your phone to adjust the brightness of the living room lights to create a romantic atmosphere. Before getting up the next day, you pick up your phone to control the coffee machine and let it make freshly ground coffee for you. All of this is done with a mobile phone. When you live this kind of life, you will definitely have a new understanding of smartphones.
