40 years ago, on 3rd of April 1973, Motoral Engineer Marty Cooper made a first public call from a 2,5 pounds (1,1kg) heavy Motorola DynaTAC 8000x cellphone. He called Joe Engel, who was head of research department at the rival company Bell Labs and the historic words were "Joel, this is Marty. I'm calling you from a cell phone, a real handheld portable cell phone."



The Motorola DynaTAC 8000x went on commercial sale in March of 1983 and it would cost you $3,995. The cellphone battery lasted 30 minutes when talking and 8 hours in standby. It also rocked a LED display for dialing or recall of one of 30 phone numbers. The DynaTAC series was manufactured until 1994 and the last one was called Ultra Classic II.

The evolution of the cell phone has transformed communication and technology over the past few decades, shifting from bulky, basic devices to sleek, multifunctional smartphones. Initially, the first mobile phones in the 1980s were large, analog models primarily used for voice calls. As technology advanced, the introduction of digital networks in the 1990s allowed for smaller phones with improved battery life and features like SMS texting. The early 2000s saw the rise of flip phones and the introduction of cameras, paving the way for the smartphone revolution. With the launch of Apple's iPhone in 2007, smartphones became powerful handheld computers, integrating internet access, apps, and high-quality cameras, fundamentally changing how we communicate, work, and interact with the world. Today, cell phones are indispensable tools that not only connect us but also serve as platforms for social media, online shopping, and countless other applications, reflecting the rapid pace of technological advancement and the growing importance of mobile connectivity in our daily lives.Thanks,https://marigoldeco.co.uk/
