20th Century Invention Mobiles

The 20th century has seen massive technological advancement and Mobile phones are a result of this. Mobile Phones have revolutionized our lives. They have become an indispensable part of our daily life. Nearly 34 million subscribers rely on their cellular phones to conduct business or just talk to their loved ones. The market is flooded with sleek designs and latest technological features in these. 

One cannot enjoy technology anymore without its harmful side effects. Even cellular phones bring with themselves many health hazards as they operate on radio frequency. Though more and more research needs to be carried out to discover the long term ill effects of using a cellular phone, brain tumors are also associated with the use of a cellular phone. Mobiles cause memory loss, radiation sickness enhancing the brain activity during our sleep. Experts recommend reduction of time spent using the mobile phone and also using a hands free set as a solution to this problem.

With cellular phones becoming increasingly universal there has been a rise in accidents caused while driving. Talking on the phone while driving affects a person in several ways: Emotional stress involved in a conversation can lead to decreased awareness of the happenings on the road creating a distraction, having to dial phone numbers and answering calls takes away your attention from the road. It’s always wise to take a minute and get off the road before answering any calls, this would decrease the number of accidents a great deal.
