Smartphones are becoming chic - and expensive! Each new flagship model press the stamp manufacturer as "Premium" or "high-end". There are no longer just the inner values. Quite a lot of glass and metal to make everyday devices also eye-catchers. The sacrifice that requires an elegant unibody by the buyer: the renunciation of microSD slot and replaceable batteries. Great!
With the first mobile phone-bone today Smartphones do not have much to do. That's good - on the one hand. Who wants to give up the luxury of traveling times just to be able to see something on the Internet to buy a ticket in my app and show times or to let the mobile companion just explain the way?
Much more than a phone
The smartphone makes many other devices superfluous. It can wake you up in the morning, during the day remember appointments, maintain contact with distant and not so distant friends, you at any time to display the time, keep you informed of important and less important news to date, spit out recipes for supper, when help calculate the correct amounts of ingredients or order pizza from delivery restaurant around the corner, when dinner is still gone in the pants. For so many applications, there is an appropriate app. Can something not yet the mobile phone, it learns by installing new software very quickly now.
The downsides of the many ways that constant accessibility or whether humanity is always of dependent by smartphones, I would not concern myself at this point. That's a completely different topic again and would open a new hogshead.
Status symbol rather than commodity
As smartphones are so practical and are always practical with progression of technological development, many people have them here around the clock, anywhere. In school is secretly chatted via WhatsApp in office they are on the desk or even work equipment. Almost everyone who has forgotten his phone home once before, said: I feel so naked! And that makes the thing quite to the point.
Smartphones are more than technical consumer articles. They are accessories, parts of our clothes. People who define themselves by their appearance, need a cell phone that she decorates. And the producers deliver them. So that people can flay impression even more with the smartphone on their mirror-Selfies ...
Glass, metal or leather - the main thing is no plastic!
The turning point was marked off for me with the Samsung Galaxy Alpha. The gehatete for its plastic Smartphones Group from South Korea in 2014 brought the first time a model with metal housing on the market. It was followed by the Galaxy A-series with complete body of metal and finally, in the spring of 2015, the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge Galaxy. Glass, metal and even a curved display
made for the certain wow factor, the one known previously only from the Apple camp. iPhone models always adhered to the reputation of top quality, nobles, exclusive - whether rightly or not.
Meanwhile make it all. Apple, Samsung, Sony, Huawei and the rest of them: no flagship smartphone in 2015, which was not sold in any way as a "premium" model. This refers primarily not high technology but high-quality optics. Metal and glass are to convince the customer that he holds not just a phone, but a designer piece in hand. The LG G4 is even available in a version with leather back - greet leave shoes, handbags and jackets.
Everything a question of price
And what will explain to us the analogy from the field of fashion? Who wants designer piece instead of bar goods, must fork out. And strong. Smartphone flagships for under 500 euros? Hardly conceivable! The proud to shocking price of new smartphones is only one of the many disadvantages that come with premium delusion of industry alike.
That's what I need to know fairly well until the weekend, when I took the Sony Xperia Z5 premium for the TECH TECH test with at the Christmas market. When photographing the crowd I noticed the 799-euro phone down - of course on the side of the display. The glass is completely shattered, no
longer to use the phone. Although this is an extreme case: Many testers reported cracked glass backs in the Xperia Z5 family.
Owners of metal phones should turn quickly discover the first scratch on the rear side, provided they do not keep the device in a protective shell. And about six months old LG G4 with leather back was one of the worst worn handsets that I've ever seen. My own smartphone, a Samsung Galaxy S5, has indeed not pretty back. There has been countless crashes unscathed and looks from behind still like the first day.
Painful renunciation of meaningful
And two more features my decried as "ugly plastic bomber" Galaxy S5 I know more and more appreciated, the more new models I test: first, the microSD card slot and secondly, the replaceable battery. The ability to easily expand the internal memory via memory card, thus creating space for more photos, music, or apps is not just practical. Compared to the lapels, which require the manufacturer of the next larger memory version of a new model, the purchase of a microSD card is a bargain! For 64 instead of 16 GB iPhone at 6s the buyer pays 110 euros more. A 64GB microSD card, however comprehensive cost around 20 euros.
The battery, the smartphone Achilles heel
Almost worse is the use of a premium Unibody metal when it prevents the purchaser may exchange his smartphone battery itself. Because it is just the way that the energy storage join only a certain number of charge cycles. The older the battery, the lower its capacity. Treat The rechargeable battery well, the inevitable only postpones. Who wants to use his smartphone for many years, the battery
needs to be replaced at some point - or can just replace when it is no longer possible on their own. It keep the mobile phone seems like the automakers: Selbermachen Pooh, workshops / service centers seek flushes money into the coffers.
Every year a fancier more expensive & mobile
I like this trend is not - neither cars nor in smartphones. Although I have the look of Samsung Galaxy S6, iPhone 6s or Huawei Mate S. But would like to buy me a new car like I, I do not reach for when new premium smartphones. I do not see it, spend so much money for a device that is in some respects less practical than my old plastic phone. Why do I speak of old with the Galaxy S5? Because smartphone models now have a half-life such as fashion. New season, new trends, new models. Bad! Who ever has to be in vogue (and the right change has) that can join and set at least once a year the newest flagship model. That cell phones thus become a consumer item from the utility, but everyone should once think critically. Neither money nor smartphones eventually grow on trees ...
