A mobile phone is a phone that can make and
receive telephone calls over a radio link while moving
around a wide geographic area.
It does so by connecting to a cellular network provided by
a mobile phone operator, allowing access to the public
telephone network. .
In addition to telephony, modern mobile phones also
support a wide variety of other services such as text
messaging, MMS, email, Internet access, short-range
wireless communications (infrared, Bluetooth), business
applications, gaming and photography.
Mobile phones that offer these and more general
computing capabilities are referred to as smartphones
