Black Friday 2020: you should know that
The shopping event originally comes from the USA and has also established itself in Germany in recent years.
Many stores and online shops take part in the discount campaign.
The shopping spectacle begins in the days before Black Friday with the so-called “Cyber Week”.
The highlight is Black Friday and the whole thing ends on the Monday after with “Cyber Monday”.
The offers these days are numerous.
From garden tools and televisions to luxury travel, there are every imaginable product to choose from.
Electronics such as cell phones are particularly popular.
With countdowns running out and an alleged shortage of products, online retailers want to encourage their customers to buy.
Consumer advocates advise not to be put under pressure and to carefully question the offers.
Comparison portals such as Idealo.de (like WELT, belongs to Axel Springer SE) help to compare product prices from different providers.
Black Friday: You should pay attention to this when buying a cell phone
If you want to get yourself a new smartphone, you should first think carefully about the requirements the device must meet.
Important features are battery performance, camera quality, memory and screen size.
The
battery performance
is crucial when buying a mobile phone, so that you don't have to hang on to the power cord with your smartphone.
High-performance power banks are also useful for on the go.
How good should the
camera
be?
Most cell phone cameras now have auto focus and optical image stabilization and are at a technical level of at least 12 megapixels.
As a rule of thumb, the more expensive smartphones also have better cameras.
A
memory
of 32 GB is currently the standard.
However, if you want to have a lot of apps, photos and videos on your phone, you should choose a 64 GB or even 128 GB device.
Many providers also offer you the option of expanding the memory with an additional memory card.
Finally, the
display size
must be taken into account.
With a size of 5 inches, the resolution should be at least full HD.
This corresponds to 1,920 x 1,080 pixels.
Because with a lower pixel density, fonts can form a podium.
