When buying a mobile phone in 2021, don’t believe the boss’s “jargon”! If you are fooled again, you will lose a lot

Novices often encounter misunderstandings when buying mobile phones. If you don't know, you will fall into the trap of the merchants and fail to buy a mobile phone that meets your needs. The following guide to "avoiding traps" when buying a mobile phone must be kept well. By knowing these points, we can also become knowledgeable people.

Buy new rather than old?

The principle of buying new instead of old only applies to the same model. The new generation must be more optimized and upgraded than the previous generation. However, even if you buy an old flagship, the performance is better than the new mid-range model. After all, even the software and hardware of the iPhone 11 produced two years ago can surpass most of the newly released mid-range performance machines in terms of photography, screen, and performance. Moreover, the old flagships have great discounts on second-hand platforms such as Zhaojingji, and the cost performance can completely crush the mid-range performance machines.

OLED screen means high-end phone?

Many businesses will say that even iPhones are gradually using OLED screens, so high-end phones don’t have LCD screens anymore. But that’s not entirely true, and OLED is not necessarily better than a well-tuned top-level LCD screen. The main thing to look at when looking at a screen is the material. For example, the diamond arrangement technology used by Samsung’s 2K screen is definitely better than the “Zhou Dongyu” arrangement solution used by BOE.

The more cameras, the better the photography?

Many manufacturers will promote their triple and quad cameras, but in fact, many 2 million, 4 million, and 8 million lenses are almost useless. So when we look at the main camera pixels, we must also consider the practicality of the two lenses, the telephoto and ultra-wide angle. Some top flagships are equipped with dual main cameras and built-in OIS optical image stabilization, which is a truly good mobile phone imaging system.

The higher the score, the better the performance?

This is not certain. If we only look at the single-core performance, the strongest iPhone with six cores can beat the Android eight-core. If we look at the comprehensive performance of AnTuTu, it is actually not comprehensive. The same phone may have a smooth or laggy experience. It still depends on the optimization effect of each manufacturer. The coordination of software and hardware is the king.

The lighter the back panel material, the better?

In fact, a thin back panel does not necessarily mean that the whole phone has a high quality. Generally, low-end and mid-range phones use plastic back panels to control the budget. High-end flagships use glass back panels, and some use different processes, such as OPPO's crystal diamond process. In short, whether the back panel is glass, metal or plastic will seriously affect the texture of the phone.

I hope this guide can help you identify good mobile phones, recognize the tricks of merchants, and stop believing in "jargon". In the end, you can take your beloved mobile phone home!
