Getting Started - Introduction to Using a Smart Phone
A simple guide to help you with the basics of getting started with your smart phone, including access to user manuals for many devices!
Charge the Handset
Batteries can lose charge whilst in transit so we would always recommend that you charge the handset for a few hours upon receipt.
A mains charger will always get the quickest results in terms of charging, but if you don’t have one then a USB data cable plugged into a pc or laptop when switched on, will give a trickle charge.
Insert the SIM
Gone are the days where every phone had a removable battery, and it was obvious how and where to insert the SIM. If you are unfamiliar with the handset model, it would be wise to refer to the user manual for advice on how to insert the SIM.
