The Future Of Mobile Phones

Cellphones are most common in society. The ease of access allows us to have the world at our fingertips 24 hours a day and we never have to unplug. We can surf the web, book a flight, check the weather, and message a friend 1000 miles away without leaving our bed.

Cell phones; also known as thing that the human race revolves around. But how can we blame ourselves? You can do almost anything on your phone, right there in your hand. Most of us wouldn’t last a day without being able to check Instagram or text our friends. You can communicate with anyone anywhere. It’s hard to think about where we would be without them. Most likely, nowhere near where we are today.

Before the 80s, most Americans could not imagine someone walking around talking to him or herself toward a portable cell phone. Anyone to even believed walking around talking to someone across the nation was crazy.

Its 2017, we live in a world surrounded by technology and one of the leading innovations is the cell phone. No matter where you go you're bound to see at least one person on their phone. These technological advances are bringing us further in life but they are also taking away things that are important to us as a society. Some would say these devices are taking us two steps forward and one step back.

A lot of the early cell phones that were made were considered to be “car phones,” because they were so big and heavy that you wouldn't be able to have it in your pocket or purse.However a revolutionary phone came out in 1983 by the name of the Motorola DynaTAC 8000x was available to the public. Compared to today’s high standards, it was considered the first real mobile phone because it was small enough to carry and not very heavy. Although The phone was very expensive it became a pop culture symbol. It showed up in the movie Wall Street and in the famous show Saved by the Bell.

Over the past 20 years, technology has advanced in an almost indescribable way and it is continuing to do so. It has a vast influence on our society and having some type of technological device is becoming a necessity for some people. Cell phones are one of these devices “with everyone from elementary school kids to senior citizens owning at least one. ”(Laura Jerpi)

Communication is found in many different forms. These days, many people communicate through a combination of in-person discussions, telephone messages, internet forums, and countless other channels. In “Exploding the Phone” by Phil Lapsley, we explore how people communicated through phones during their introduction into society. More specifically, the author takes us on a journey on how a subset of phone users, called “phone phreaks,” connected with each other through the telephone. These people would get around paying for the phone bill by using various methods such as whistling, playing a flute, and even building sophisticated electronic boxes. Before we began reading the book, we were not expecting to read a story; we were expecting a technical overview of what exactly “exploding a phone” entails, and the text being quite complex. After reading the first chapter, however, we were very surprised at how the author worked to keep the book interesting by mixing some light technical details with important stories of how people exposed the phone networks to their advantage. An example of

On April 3, 1973, the first public cellular phone call was made by Martin Cooper, then general manager of Motorola’s Communication Systems Division. Cooper called his rival at AT&T from the streets of New York City. Phones gradually added features, such as cameras, mp3 players, video capability, speakerphone, and much more. Today, cell phone technology has advanced to smartphones, which allow more computing ability and connectivity than a contemporary feature phone. The Droid, the iPhone, and the Blackberry are the most popularly sold phones in today's smartphone market.

The smart phone has become more than that of just an accessory only to be seen among the rich and wealthy it has become a social standard were ones personality can be understood by one’s phone. Now a day it appears as though almost every one owns a mobile phone and the teachers can tell. The smart phone can access the web from almost any location and there special phone that are used only for social media. Speaking of social media the ability for one to communicate with a far away relative was never more of a dream until recently. Well it was just in the late 90s when phone were the size of dinosaurs, extremely expensive and the only thing they could do was call. Now they are smaller than the computers back, ten times stronger and at a quarter of their size. It is safe to say that phones are going to be as common as

In a time when rapid access to information is valuable, cell phones have bridged the gap between the information and the user. The cell phone came into existence when Martin Cooper, at Motorola, developed the first portable handheld radio for the Chicago police department. The first cell phone, Motorola DynaTac, was over 2.5 pounds and could be only used to

In the 20th century, Gugliemo Marconi, a young Italian, invented the wireless telegraph by using the sources that were investigated by major scientists on electromagnetic waves and electricity. The first audio was sent out by Reginald A. Fessenden in 1907 and by 1910, the wireless telegraph had become what we now called the “radio”. The radio impacted the American society both culturally and politically in the year of 1920s and onward by providing the entertainment and also the comforts that was needed due to the Great Depression.

Cell phones, as we know them haven’t been around for that long. The quick progression of the item and development has enormously influenced the regular daily existence in the general public eye today. It 's implementation has been genuinely quick considering that mobile phones were inexistent a quarter century ago. The first phone was made by Alexander Graham Bell. According to an article, ' 'This brought upon a major change in communication and gave leeway to the improvement of the telephone in the days to come ' '(Bellis, 2013b).

Every day of our lives, we watch as technology advances in leaps and bounds, so it was only logical when the cell phone came into existence, it would also be important to develop ways for a phone to be more than just a phone. With the explosion of the internet age people needed a way to bring their computers on the go, one that could fit in the palm of their hand. Whether it be checking emails, updating social networks or even playing games, smartphones seem to do it all. There is however, a dark side to every technological advance to everything that makes our lives more convenient. Smartphones are not only a huge distraction in our lives but are also known to cause health problems in those that use them and even have negative effects on society as a whole.

The adoption of smartphone has been skyrocketing in the mainstream consumer markets all over the world. According to the Pew Internet Project, it finds that one third of American adults, about 35 percent own smartphones. While another project called Project May also finds a similar result, which is about 42 percent of adults owning a smartphone. It would be strange nowadays not to have a smartphone and living a
