DANCE MUSIC PLAYS DANCE MUSIC PLAYS # Oh. # From December 18, it'll be illegal to give under-18s alcohol without parental consent. Don't be a 'cool dad'. See alcohol.org.nz for how the new law impacts you. UPBEAT MUSIC How do you find the right smartphone for you? Smartphones these days are the Swiss army knives of technology, and finding one that fits can come down to how it looks, the brand or what you want to use it for. If it's just the basics, like calling, texts, emails and the occasional web search, then you probably don't need a top-of-the-line model. If you like reading or watching videos on your daily commute, a large, high-resolution screen is a great way to go. If you're big on taking photos, then the quality of the phone's camera should be a factor to consider. Or maybe you're out and about all day, so you'll need a phone with a great battery, you can fit in your back pocket and operate with one hand. Smartphones are pretty much hand-held computers. They run on different operating systems. The main ones are iOS, Android, Windows and Blackberry. This means that they each have something unique to offer, and choosing the right one depends on what suits you. So visit a store and try out a few different models for yourself and head to Telecom's techinasec.co.nz
