Mobile Tech Changes Everything

Anthony Batista, Tech Expert

Mobile Technology has evolved tremendously over the years. Now innovations are being made every few weeks. The biggest leap is in cellphones and tablets. New phones are announced and released every few weeks. The iPhone 5 just recently released and it’s the newest Apple product out with a cool new design. The Samsung Galaxy S3, which is one of the latest popular android smartphones beside the HTC One X has revved up the competition in the smartphone marketplace.

 Cell phones used to be for just talking, and now people do all sorts of things with them. Nowadays when you see someone with a cellphone, it’s most likely a smartphone. Although Apple is the richest company in the world, Google’s Android operating system is in the lead of popularity.

Cell phone companies have also evolved. There used to be just one cell phone company in the U.S., but now there are over 10 including Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and MetroPCS. Now the catch with cell phone companies such as the first four I mentioned is the fact that they require a two-year contract to be with them. MetroPCS is the exception, requiring no contract. With the evolution of 4G LTE, the standard and latest in mobile technology nowadays, most of the population are turning away from computers and are running towards smartphones.

Everything that would usually be done on a computer is now being done on a smartphone and things are becoming much easier. Things like music, videos, books and files can be downloaded for free on a smartphone and can all be viewed and played straight from the phone. Mobile technology has just fascinated the world, especially people like me who just can’t wait for the next innovation to be made.
