Ringtones - Entertainment Meets Functionality

Generally, the latest mobile phones come with a base set of ringtones, allowing you to customize your phone. But how you personalize your ringtones could make all the difference in how well you maximize their potential value.

For example, you might use one ringtone for incoming calls and another to alert you to incoming text messages. You can even use separate tones to announce calls from different people or categories in your phone book. For example, here's how to define a ringtone for a contact on Nokia phones.

Additional ringtones are usually available from your carrier service or phone manufacturer either free or for purchase. The cell phone ringtones are downloaded from a web site or sent to your phone over the air.

What are monophonic ringtones? These are ringtones that play only one sound note at a time. Monophonic tones are on the low end of the scale.

On the other hand, polyphonic ringtones play more than one note at a time and sound more like recorded music.

Real Tones are newer, allowing you to personalize your phone with recordings of real sounds or sound effects.
