Introduction of mobile phones

[sedrick]

With the introduction of mobile in this world many things have become easy to connect with one and other. I think the first mobile phone was invented in the year 1973 by Motorola (if i am not wrong). From that mobile phone has become very essential in our day today life. Now a days no one will forget to take their mobile along with them.  The reason is we are living in a fast moving world where social life is centered around the mobile phones. Mobile phones are the No:1 culprit in damaging our social life and family life. People have started Texting instead of talking and visiting.There was also many debates which has happen if mobile phones are a boon or bane.

According to you, introduction of mobile phones is a boon or bane to the society???

[Jovrick]

Can be a boon
Can also be a curse, His Grace Facilitate access from all over the world in realtime, without complicated and easy to carry anywhere.
The curse can be addictive and can interact with many traffic accidents caused by a smartphone.Addicts indifferent to the circumstances around as if a new world were on their mobile screen and making them counter-social.

It can be both, depending on the user, like any tool.

With proper use of tools, you can build yourself a house, and with those same tools, you can end up in the hospital if used incorrectly.  For those without mental discipline, it's easy to get sucked into the addictive nature of a smartphone and repetitively needing updates or social recognition.  But it can also be used to make your life more convenient, have access to the world's information, etc.  Just depends what you use it for.

A blessing, when I had an accident, my body was immobile on the floor, I could not move my body and had children trapped in the bus, it was full of people injured on the ground, if someone had not called ambulance to help us and called others Cars come to help us what would become of us?

Cell phone can be very useful at certain times

[MarconyGL]

Telephones are certainly good, because with the help of fast communication we can help someone and can develop our business faster. We will return to the stone age and we will be very difficult to survive.

The phone aspect is great. The mini computer aspect has turned many a person into a drooling zombie. It's genie that won't be going back into the bottle but I'm glad I grew up before the smartphone era. I think it's made aspects of society atrophy.

Technology is amoral, whatever results out of it depends on the people using it. Gunpowder was used both for making fireworks and cannons. Printing press was used to print educational material and propaganda pamphlets.

As someone who don't text or call that often anyway, I actually found the minicomputer aspect the most useful. I can get my Youtube fix during my downtime, I can check my email, I can open an exchange to check on the rates, I can make and edit documents, etc.

It really depends on how you are using it. I remember the first time phones became more widely available, people went zombie mode texting and playing Snake.  Heck, there were SMS clans that took advantage of group texting promos. I've seen a lot of people cheat partners and a lot of kids born out of wedlock. And that was around 2 decades before smartphones!

[Lancusters]

A mobile phone is certainly good. In fact, he only expands human capabilities. With the advent of smartphones this is not only a tool for communication, as a part of our lives. It helps to find a way to make a purchase and much more. The fact that people reach on the phone than in person it's not bad. It's just a different way of communicating.

[mountainview]

Mobile phones are the best thing happened to mankind. Communication has become easier and now everything happens through a smartphone which saves  lot of time. Earlier phones were bulky but now we get in lot of designs and slimmer ones.

It can be a boon or a bane. It just completely depends on the person using it.

It becomes a bane if people use social media in public places instead of actually socializing with lets say, your family or friends.

It's a boon if you take advantage of smartphones by the way it's supposed to be used. "information on your fingertips". It should be a tool for easily accessing information on the web, not mainly for selfies.

True.

As a pure informational device they're miraculous. It's when the vanity and subterfuge takes root that's when they stop being healthy.

I think this can also apply to the term a sword is only dangerous depending on who wields it. We all want to make the world a better place however, some things, inventions, gadgets or whatnot also can exist to serve a sinister purpose. When we made communication faster and better we also opened the door to communication problems like what you all said but I think in the long run this beneffitted mankind greatly.

The advantages of mobile phone technology far outweigh the disadvantages. Mobiles have changed the world's way of life. Faster and efficient communication is the key to development. On a side note, I really miss my old Motorolla Timeport 280 with an antenna.

[BitcoinSupremo]

Mobile phones especially the ones being produced nowadays are designed to make our life easier. We can communicate through a lot of different apps, free of charge most of them, like Whatsapp, Viber, Skype, Facebook, Messenger etc. This helps us keep in touch with our loved ones who maybe abroad, also it eases our communication in our jobs.

The only disadvantage a mobile phone has, many people know where you are ,so if you want to stay alone, to calm a bit, or just to get refugee for a few hours from this harsh world we live in, you have to turn it off.

Lol, just google image'd that.  You don't really miss it haha
Reminds me of my first phone - Nokia 8130.  This was when each phone was getting smaller than the previous generation, and it was all about getting smaller and this was a "candy bar" phone.  Screen size didn't mean anything.  So I got this tiny phone only to see that when I call people, the phone doesn't even make it halfway from my ear to my mouth and it's not the most clear sounding lol.  After that, it seemed phones started getting bigger again.

To those who are privacy conscious, they dont like the idea of someone eavesdropping on their conversation and spying on them, but with introduction of mobile phones, there isn't any privacy anymore especially to those with smartphones. To them it may be considered a bane.

Actually yes, it can be both. I had my first mobile phone way back in 1995 it was a Motorola Microtac as far as I can remember. Well its serves a good purpose on my end, business and personal wise. But sometimes when I'm in a middle of a meeting then my phone rang. LOL. For some this is really annoying. One big negative impact of cellphone is that it has somewhat affect the dynamics of human contact. Some people may not know how to interact in real life anymore, preferring just to send text message of instant message.

However, there are advantages as well, like simple forgetting you shopping list and you are already in the grocery store. A call to your home can easily solved your problem. Cell phones add convenience to our lives. You can call anyone from virtually anywhere. Because mobile phones provide a constant avenue for communication.

For me introducing of mobile phones is more of a boon because it gives a lot of benefits to us. Especially in the world of communication. Now we can easily keep in touch with our love one even in abroad, we can chat or video call them through mobile fone with internet. But it can be also a bane if you abuse to use it.

Agreed to both of you. We can't even call it a double-edged sword since that would imply it will always have a negative effect whichever way you use it. I try to think of technology like money. They offer opportunities and a wide variety of uses. Just like you can use your money as donation to charity or for buying arms to intimidate people, phones can be used to help or hurt yourself and others.

[Nibeloss]

With the advent of phones you can find negative and positive effects, it all depends on how to use them. For me it's a very good thing to be in touch in any situation.
