Do Even More, with a Smartphone

Easy-to-use and affordable.

With a smartphone, you can keep everything you care about with you, everywhere. Smartphones have access to app stores, where a numerous number of apps (small computer programs that runs on smartphones) are available for download. With apps, you can receive updates or interact with the topics of your choice, at the tip of your fingers. And most of them are free. Some features require a connection to a Wi-Fi network or data on your phone, in order to be used or on the go.

• Internet: Browse the internet and check your favourite websites, search on Google, and buy things online!
• Email and instant messaging: Something important left in your inbox? Access your inbox when you are away or on the go.
• Instant messaging: New instant messaging apps as Viber can let you stay in touch with your relatives.
• GPS: Whether you are travelling a great deal or lost in a new neighbourhood, a GPS app like Google Maps can help you find your way.
• Social Media: Stay up-to-date with your family, your community, with news and much more with apps such as Facebook, Twitter or Google Plus.
