Handphones, laptops, MP3s, these are few of the electronic devices youngsters of the new centuary want. This new age is the period of technology, unlike the past, when people did not have computers to send their mail, hence having no choice but to use the manual post. In the olden days, people also did not have mobile phones, which is portable and easy to use with a press of a few buttons. Just think, how troublesome it would be if we did not have technology to help us in our daily lives.
Now, let me talk about the most common and important thing of our lives-a handphone! A handphone can be used to communicate anytime, anywhere. It is easy to use, portable and light-weighted. However, the newest handphones come with a music player, camera, video player and even internet!
There are many brands of mobile phones, as well as the countless variety of models of phones. Some of the famous brands are, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Motorola, Samsung and many others.
Well, there is certainly something not right. Yes, without a provider for your phone's telecommunication, how are you going to use it? Well there is also a handful of these companies, starting with the highly sought after ones, such as Singtel, Starhub and m1. Not only do some of them provide services for your handphone, they have internet networks and television programes too!
As for those phones with a music player, they are called walkman phones, specially from Sony Ericsson. The 'walkman' is an audio cassette player used to market its portable audio and video players. The original Walkman introduced a change in music listening habits, allowing people to carry their own choice of music with them, listening to their preferred choice of songs whereever they go.
Just following 'tradition', that new things replace old things, the iphone was soon star of the phone community. It is an internet-connected multimedia smartphone designed and marketed by Apple Inc. With a flush multi-touch screen and a minimal hardware interface. The device does not have a physical keyboard, so a virtual keyboard is rendered on the touch screen instead. It has many features, such as a camera, a portable media player, internet access, GPS mapping, 3G speed, mail, and even Youtube is avaliable to watch from the phone.
With every good thing, follows a bad one. For example, the cost of buying the latest phone always cost a bomb, and some just buy the phone not for necessity, but to show of to their friends and relatives. Another bad point is that with more use of your phone, there would be a higher chance of you facing ear problems, due to the radiation emitted when on a call. On the other hand, if we forgot to bring our phone out, we might feel a part of us missing, as we have grown too dependent on the phone.
All the same we need the phone for the most basic purpose, that is to communicate. However, we must not misuse it to do bad deeds, and solely for messenging and calling. The other features of the phone are just like jewelleries, beautifying our clothing, making the phone more attractive and tempting to buy. Hope all of you will take care of your phone, just like how a solider takes care of his weapon.
