The smart phone market got more competitive last week with the debut of Samsung's new Galaxy S4.
It joins the likes of the I-Phone, the Android and the Windows phone.
So if you're shopping for a new one, sorting through the options can be daunting.
But it doesn't have to be.
It's crowded out there for smartphone shoppers and more choices can make it harder to find the best fit.
Apple's easy interface makes it popular especially among novice smartphone users.
Android phones boast a greater diversity in hardware and more variety in screen size like the Galaxy S4, for example, which increased its size.
Blackberry remains popular for business and also for those who prefer a physical keyboard over touch screen.
And the live tile interface of a Windows phone makes it user-friendly and helps users find what they need with fewer steps.
And with smartphones fast becoming the go-to device for photos and videos consider what you'll need if you aim to ditch your traditional camera and consolidate devices.
A new phone with more bells and whistles also needs a data plan that can handle it.
So make sure to review yours to avoid overage fees.
