When Were Phones Invented ?

Many people ask when where the phones invented and many of us don’t know when. The very first phone was invented in the early 1940s. When the first phone was out it wasn’t like the ones we have now they were two-way radios. The first company to make handheld phones was Motorola in April 3 1973. After the first handheld phone was out the very first SMS message ever sent was in UK in 1992. The first message was sent by a young boy named Neil Papworth.

The first downloadable context sold to mobile phones was the ringtone in 1998. In 2000 the first camera phone was out in Japan. On June 29, 2007 the first Iphone came out. Later a year passed by and on September 2008 the first Android came out. With this two phone being out they were sold right away. The reason they where gone right away was because this phones had much more technology than the old phones.

Many of us want to spend every single minute on our phones. Back in time people wouldn’t just be in their phones because they were not that fast how they are now. Another reason they where not on that much was because they didn’t have much technology. For example, they didn’t have Snapchat, Instagram, Facebook and not even Wifi.
