This one along with others including Blackberrys and Googles own phone have the ability to surf the internet using modern browsers much like anyones laptop or PC.
This in turn opens up a number of security issues and flaws much like the battle Internet Explorer goes through with hackers and scammers trying to part with your money.
Unfortently, virus software and other techniques aren’t available for these phones and the reliance on the companys own software for safety become paramount.
The best advice to stay safe whilst online using these is to remember, much like the previous article that public wifi networks aren’t to be trusted and to keep your phones software upto date.
