How to get free ringtones
Once upon a time cell phones were used purely to send and accept calls, since then knowledge has evolved so much new phones are almost unrecognisable from the old brick style phones with extendable aerials, the new iphone for example has an mp3 player, camera has a crystal clear display in fact it would be easy to forget its a phone as well. Phones can not only be practical but can be entertaining as well, they can now hold games, surf the internet and of course ringtones.
A ring tone is a sound your mobile can play when you get an received call or message, this can vary from an alien zapper to a classical tune, most people go for up-to-the-minute chart ringstones but the range and choice is much wider, you can get ringtones for every occasion. A ringtone is the name given to a sound that alerts you when a mobile phone receives an incoming call or message. On most modern phones these ringtones can be easily modified and you can have a different tone for every caller and occasion. In fact part of the fun of customizable ringtones is the ability to be able to change them at will
There are a number of ways to ways to get ringtones onto your phone, You can often get them though your mobile supplier but they will charge you for the privilege, some of these involve you getting sent new ringtones on a recurring basis, but the charges can prove expensive. As a result most people prefer to download free ringtones from the internet. There are many sites which provide ringtones for mobile phones be careful as there may be a charge but there are lots of sites out there from which you can simply download ringtones free of charge. There are 3 main type of ringtones you can download.
– Monophonic. This ringtone type can only play a single note at a time (hence mono) this gives you the impression of the tune but is not that realistic
– Polyphonic. Poly ringtones can play multiple notes at once, this give a more life like sound and will much more like the original
– Truetone. These are normally cutdown versions of a song normally in mp3 format
One of my favourite sites for ringtone downloads is http://www.ringtones4all.com, here you will find mono and polyphonic ringtones, available in a large range of formats there is also logos, themes and wallpapers. The is a fantastic selection of ringtones to choose from.
The ability to change your ringtone is a feature of all modern cell phones. The more sophisticated the phone the better the ringtone you can normally get.
