Phones were made to make us more connected with the world:
Mainly though as a tool to call, they suffered an evolution to make our life easier. New technologies such as cameras, bluetooth, wifi… made our experiences with our phones wider and better. Since we are carrying them most of the time, the context of its usability is almost infinite.
