Things you won’t believe you can do with your smartphone!

1) Playing Sports: A Racquet Perhaps?

Many of us will have used our big screen smartphone to watch sports, but have any of you sports-lovers ever considered using the strong metallic body of a big-screen smartphone to play sports? Think about it, why not use your smartphone or phablet as a racquet and enjoy a game of ping pong? You can also use the front or rear-facing cameras to record the whole process – your very own up close and personal ping pong match!

2) Magnifying Glass

Do you know that your smartphone camera not only records the most memorable moments of your life, but can also be used as a magnifying glass? One of the biggest benefits in having a big-screen smartphone is when you read. Though you might not use this function every day, there may be days when you forget your glasses or lose your contact lenses that you’ll be thankful that you at least have your trusty smartphone!

3) Measurements

Unless you’re a professional builder or designer, chances are you don’t carry measurement tools with you on a daily basis. But there has probably been an occasion or two, or even three, where you need a ruler or a spirit level, in between replying to emails and checking Facebook or WhatsApp. Your big screen smartphone can also be used to measure distances, act as a ruler, and even help you check whether you have hung a picture up straight on the wall. It’s almost like having an inbuilt toolkit.

4) Kitchen Essentials

This one is for the foodies. Big screen smartphones come with a big flat surface. Did you know your phablet can actually be used as a cutting board? Just imagine your friends’ faces if you used the flat surface of your device as a knife while cutting into a big juicy watermelon? Don’t forget your portable board the next time you are invited to an outdoor party or a picnic.

5) Remote Control Everything

Tired of fumbling around to find your TV remote control while you sit comfortably on your couch wishing there was an easier way to change the channels? Why not use your big-screen smartphone? With an infrared remote controller, your smartphone can control your TV, wireless routers and air conditioners and your whole clever house if you have it wired up.

6) Wireless Mouse or Keyboard

If you’re worried your smartphones or phablet might make your desktop PC obsolete, then big screen smartphones aren’t necessarily a bad thing for PC lovers. In fact, through your wireless network connection, users can turn the smartphone or phablet to a wireless keyboard and mouse connected to your PC. You can even use your big-screen smartphone as a touchpad or a call up the on-screen keyboard so you can type in some text in comfort without your fingers fumbling.

7) Zoomable Mirror

For those who love taking selfies or don’t want to head to the restroom just to check if your hair’s in place, there’s one function you do not want to miss. The mirror function of the front-facing camera. Just think about how convenient it would that be if you could tap once and turn the camera to a handy mirror –that can zoom in on any part of your face - when you’re rushing to an important meeting or event.
