2. WHAT IS A SMARTPHONE?
• A smartphone is a portable personal computer with a
mobile operating system with features useful for handheld
use. Smartphones, which are typically pocket-sized (as
opposed to tablets, which are much larger than a pocket),
have the ability to place and receive voice/video calls and
create and receive text messages.
• Have virtual assistants (such as Siri, Google Assistant,
Alexa, Cortana, Bixby), a note-taking application, an event
calendar, a media player, video games, GPS navigation,
digital camera and video camera.
• Smartphones can access the Internet through a cellular
network or Wi-Fi and can run a variety of third-party
software components ("apps" from places like Google Play
Store or Apple App Store).
• They typically have a color display with a graphical user
interface that covers the front surface. The display is
almost always a touchscreen that enables the user to use a
virtual keyboard to type words, numbers, and other
characters, and press onscreen icons to activate "app"
features.

Personal Communicator in the United States between
August 1994 and February 1995, selling 50,000 units.

iPhone that was announced on January 9, 2007 after
years of rumors and speculation.

2007, and it featured quad-band GSM cellular
connectivity with GPRS and EDGE support for data
transfer.

iPhone 3G. The original iPhone has not received

all other regions. Apple does not service vintage or
obsolete products, and replacement parts for obsolete

actions, such as swiping, tapping and pinching, to
manipulate on-screen objects, along with a virtual
keyboard for text input.

First released in September 2008, the Dream was the
first commercially released device to use the Linux-
