Trying to decide which is the best mobile phone on the market isn’t an easy task. There are so many different shapes, sizes and features, that it can be difficult to know which manufacturer to believe when their clever advertising tells you that they have the best phone on the market.

Phones like Apple’s new iPhone 4, HTC’s Desire, and the Google Nexus One, not to mention Blackberry’s Bold, could easily claim to be the best mobile around, if you need a phone that is capable of a lot more than just calling home. For mobile users who don’t need hundreds of different features and Apps, and are more concerned about having the best-looking phone, Sony Ericsson and Samsung have plenty to offer, and LG even has a Prada phone for those looking for the ultimate fashion accessory.

If you’re choosing a new phone, you don’t just want what others tell you is the best phone on the market, you want the phone on the market that’s best for you. Apart from calling home and sending texts to your friends, what else do you need it to do? You might want a phone that can do everything, so you can play music and games on it, as well as watching films. You might not be bothered about a touchscreen, as long as the phone is small and looks good. You need to ask yourself what you’re going to be doing with your phone, so you can make sure you pick the best phone for your needs.

If you want to choose the best mobile phone, you also need to think about how much it’s going to cost to use it once you’ve actually spent the money to buy it. Some of the networks will let you have the phone for free, but only if you agree to spend a certain amount on your monthly tariff; and even then, they might make you sign a 24 month contract. With a contract this long, your phone could be outdated long before you are eligible to upgrade to a better one. Even if you chose Pay As You Go, offers from the different networks vary, so you need to look into them all to make sure you are getting the best deal.

Any of the major manufacturers will tell you that their mobile phone is best, but only you can decide. Considering what you want from your mobile, will help you choose the one that’s best for you; and you’ll make sure you get the best call plan as well, if you know how you’re going to be using it.
