• By very definition, a smart phone is a
Cellular phone that has many other
features besides placing and receiving
calls.
• Some of the other hundreds of features
include, access to the internet, placing or
receiving emails, playing games, watching
movies, texting, and much, much more.

3. A little bit of history
• The first smartphone was made The first
smartphone was designed by IBM in 1992 and
was called Simon. Was shown as a concept
product that year at COMDEX expo. He was
released to the public in 1993 and marketed by
BellSouth. Apart from being a mobile phone, it
contained calendar, address book, world clock,
calculator, address book entries, email, send and
receive FAX and included games. But this is
considered low tech today.

4. Applications
• What makes a smart phone what it is, is that is
can be used in many different ways.
• Applications are used for just about anything
after you download and pay for them on the
market.
• The app market is awesome and makes a ton of
cash for the dudes running it.
• The is an app for anything you could want, like
using maps, or checking the stock market.

5. Communication
• Obviously a phone, wouldn’t be a phone if you
couldn’t call people or get called by people. But
smart phones take it an extra step.
• Calling, texting, email, face time, video
messages, social media, and much more, are all
alternative ways of using smartphones to
communicate with one another, which is their
primary function.
• Constant updates are needed for jobs and
smartphones are great at doing this.

6. Internet Access
• Probably the most useful aspect of a smartphone is the use of
internet access and Wi-Fi networks
• With this we can access an unlimited vein of information all at
the touch of our fingers and in our pockets.
• Smartphones truly are amazing devices and should not be
taken for granted as they are in todays standards.

cant access the internet, you cant access the app markets, or
the iTunes charts. So internet access is vital to smartphone
