There was a time when cell phones were used only for communication. But not any more. With the increasing number of functions being added to the handset, mobile users can actually watch a movie on their handsets. So why not use video as ringtones? Video ringtones are a norm with high end and sophisticated mobile handsets with greater resolution and wide LCD screens. So what better then get a video of yourself on the screen when someone calls you? Or better than that, to get to see your favorite music video of you favorite artist when someone calls in? Most of the video ringtones are in the 3gp format as they are small and save a lot of valuable space.
Most of the popular video ringtones are supported by super quality sound that makes the whole concept far more pleasurable. Video ringtones can be downloaded from the Internet, grabbed from the computer or from DVDs. But the actual lifespan of the video ringtone is not very long, as most users like to change it on a regular basis depending on what’s the latest. Also, many users like to record clippings of themselves or their loved ones and use them as ringtones. Many sports enthusiasts like to use clippings of their favorite moment of their favorite sport and enjoy every call with it. Many users have cartoon clips or even movie scenes as the video ringtone.
The list goes on and on and the possibilities are as many as the users. But the major drawback of free video ringtones is that when downloading them, the user runs the risk of downloading spyware or viruses. Many portals do provide anti-virus protection, but that may not be enough. Also usage of video ringtones increases the load on the phone battery and may drain it faster then usual. Of course, truly tech savvy users don’t care. They just want their favorite stars with them whenever they get a call. And they are ready to pay for it, so who’s complaining?
