Smartphones | Telecom Consumer Discussion Forums

In many ways Nicaragua is still behind the times, but not when it comes to cell phones. The new rage in the country is smartphones. It seems almost everyone has one. Especially in main towns and cities this allows you access to the internet where ever you, assuming there is a wi-fi connection. They are especially handy for people that are calling international. If this is the case you can use Skype or Talkatone to contact friends and family in the States or elsewhere. You can also send pictures. They can be difficult to repair and one should keep a close eye on them as they are very popular and since they use chips that are easy to replace people are looking for them to be left unattended.
