The Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was the first commercial mobile phone. It was sold for the first time in 1983 in the United States. The first conversation with a mobile phone was made by Dr. Martin Cooper from Motorola with Joel Engel of Bell Labs on April 3, 1973. He used a prototype of the DynaTAC 8000X. The price for this unit was: $4,000 (taking the inflation in account).

In 1989, the revolutionary device the Motorola MicroTAC came out. Weighing 340 grams, it certainly wasn’t the lightest. It was not only the first "flip' phone (a phone with a cover), but the device was also very small.

In 1993, the IBM Simon came out. It was the first smartphone. It was sold for 1000 dollars in the United States. By now, consumers could use a calendar, address book, clock, calculator and a notepad. It was also possible to send e-mails and to play games. A revolution in those days! Want to see the phone? Watch the movie "The Net" (1995) with Sandra Bullock.

In 1998 there was the Nokia 3210 phone. With his interchangeable front plates, T9 predictive text for SMS messaging and a built-in antenna, the phone was very popular. Its successor, the Nokia 3310, replaced in the popular 3210 in the year 2000. There were a total of 126 million copies sold. The 3310 was one of the most popular phones ever.

The first phone with a camera was the Sharp J-SH04. This phone was released in November 2000 in Japan. The 0.1 megapixel camera was able to shoot images with 110,000 pixels. The J-SH04 was also the first device with a color display (256 colors).

The Nokia 6650 was not the first 3G phone but was one of the first phones that had a fast internet connection. Nokia released the device in 2002. The VGA camera of the 6650 was able to take pictures and could record videos.

The iPhone 2G (2007) was the first phone from Apple. The mobile operating system IOS, made it much user friendlier than other phones. Apple introduced the App Store, a store where users could purchase applications for their phones. "There's an app for that" quickly became a household name. Today there are hundreds of thousands of apps released. And this number is still rising.

Google also has its own mobile operating system: Android. In 2010, Google released its first mobile phone the Nexus One. Actually, this phone can do everything except doing the dishes and vacuuming. Watch videos, navigate, purchase applications, read news or play a game: it's all possible with the Nexus One.

These days there are several phones on the market like the Samsung Chat 335 with his QWERTY keyboard. Very useful if you want to type in messages very fast. What does the future hold? Phones you can roll up? Phones without a battery? One thing is certain: mobile phones are here to stay. They are part of our daily lives.
