In a visit to a mall, you would feel like a roller coaster ride in looking at those gadgets. Among of them are cellphones (Well I think its number one obsession), laptops, and we have tablets today, and include mp3/mp4 players. Also add television sets.
Cellphones have always been on the top list since everybody uses it as mode of communication. Its mobility is its greatest feature where you can and use it anywhere (oh unless your network provider has coverage)
not like the landline that we grew up with. Before cellphones only have call features until it evolved to text messaging thru Short Message Service or the SMS. We have been obsessed before with monotonic device popularly we have Nokia 5110, Nokia 3310, and the like. In which it is not a "colored phone". Only SMS and calls are allowed. A little of games like the popular Snake. And an alarm and reminder features. (Oh well this is one of my favorite phone. Its easy to use and you can still use it even if it fell 20x or more.) Ehem, going back to 2010 Obsession, today, we have the QWERTY phone, where the keypad is just like your computer keyboard or known as QWERTY named after the first 6 letters in the upper part. Touch screen phones and the multitap or the common. Mobile phones today are capable of Multi Messaging Service or the MMS, camera, video camera, mp3 player, polyponic or mp3 ringtone, additional games, calendar. Many has email access, chat, social networking sites. 3G Phones offer video calling.Internet access also is considered in choosing phones. Some are wifi ready while oth
ers needed to activate GPRS for internet. Among the top players (in the Philippines) are Nokia, Sony Ericson, Samsung, LG, Black
berry. Inlcude the China phones; Cherry Mobile and Torque; in which both offers dual stand by sim, and TV features. And oops don't forget Apple with its latest iphone 4.Laptops also has became one's need especially for the working and the students. It is your version of your desktop where in you cannot carry it with your bag. Imagine you walking
and carrying a monitor and a CPU on your back, plus the keyboard and the mouse. And add a battery to make it work. (Oh that's a wild imagination). What to consider in choosing your laptop are its processor, memory, features and accessories. Among the top brands are Hp, Apple, Asus, Dell,Toshiba, Acer, Sony (VAIO), Lenovo, and many more.
With speedy trend in upgrades of cellphones and laptops, tablets made its way this year. Apple released its first generation ipad. This is just like your laptop where you can carry and connect to wifi anywhere. Samsung also released its Samsung Galaxy that has call features. Recently, Cherry Mobile, one of the successful mobile carriers, released a 7" tablet Superion that made Cherry first to release phone tablet in the Philippines.
Adding on these gadgets that would totally make to crave for it, we also had television sets. From the black and white to colored, and the slim TV, we now have LCD TV and the LED TV.
The technology world has been fascinating us time by time. Changes happens so fast that you might find your gadget old model. Whatever it might be that you wanted always consider its convenience on you, the specifications, accessories and everything important on the item. Remember that its always a cost to wear and tear an item. Bottom line is obsession with these is not bad, as long as you are on the right state of mind for craving and that you have value for your money. So the next time you buy, consider important matters so you would be contented with the fast changing tech world.
