Why was the first mobile phone invented?
The first mobile phones were developed in the the 1950’s and 1960’s but they were very heavy, (the base set not the handset), and very expensive and required special radio connection to Mobile Phone Operators. They were only mobile in the sense that they were not hard wired to land lines and were always installed in cars, trains and airplanes. They were solely a convenience of the the very rich and they were invented for them. Someone with the technical wherewithal during that time figured out that there was a group of people whose time was so valuable that they could actually lose money whenever they were out of touch, (away from a phone). And these people had the means to pay whatever it cost to have access to a phone whenever they were out of the office or away from home, (usually in transit from one to the other). “Cell” phones are merely a logical evolution from those beginnings.
so it would be much easier to communicate. not enough? here’s more: A mobile phone or mobile (also called cellphone and handphone[1]) is an electronic device used for mobile telecommunications (mobile telephony, text messaging or data transmission) over a cellular network of specialized base stations known as cell sites. Mobile phones differ from cordless telephones, which only offer telephony service within a limited range, e.g. within a home or an office, through a fixed line and a base station owned by the subscriber and also from satellite phones and radio telephones. As opposed to a radio telephone, a cell phone offers full duplex communication, automatised calling to and paging from a public land mobile network (PLMN), and handoff (handover) during a phone call when the user moves from one cell (base station coverage area) to another. Most current cell phones connect to a cellular network consisting of switching points and base stations (cell sites) owned by a mobile network oper
