Handphone

A mobile phone (also known as a wireless phone, cell phone, or cellular telephone) is

a very small portable radio telephone. The first mobile phone networks were created in the

late 1970s in Japan. A cell phone combines technologies, mainly telephone, radio, and

computer. Cell phones work as two-way radios. They send electromagnetic microwaves from

base station to base station. The waves are sent through antennas. This is called wireless

communication.

There are different kinds of phones. A flip phone flips open, and is best for calling. A

bar phone is shaped like a candy bar, and the keys and screen are on one face. A slate

phone is a phone that has almost no buttons, and uses a touchscreen. Most smartphones are

slates. A slider phone slides on rails. It can slide out number keys or a mini keyboard, but

some do both. A swivel spins on an axle.

Many 21st century mobile phones are smartphones. These phones can be used for

email, browsing the internet, playing music and games, and many other functions that

computers can perform. This is because mobile phones basically are small computers. Older

phones also used computer technology, but lacked many of the parts of a computer that were

too big to fit into a phone. Modern phone makers have been able to use smaller parts. Most

smartphones are also GPS receivers and digital cameras.
