• March 30, 2023

"People look at their phones all day. I didn't think it would happen!" — says the creator of this device himself. American engineer Martin Cooper invented the mobile phone 50 years ago. Now he is very angry to see people's fascination and illusion towards this device. The word of God, the small device inside the pocket can make many problems easy, but people have become a little too obsessed! "It breaks my heart when I see someone crossing the street looking at a cell phone," said 94-year-old Cooper in a recent interview with a news agency in his office in Del Mare, California. If some people don't die, no one will come to mind.'' has been Even then, the mechanized people are obsessed with the mobile phone and its virtual world.

Cooper also owns an Apple watch. Use the latest version of iPhone. Cooper is very fond of this. He said that he changed the mobile phone when the new version came. But at the same time he admitted that there are thousands of apps on the phone, most of which he does not know how to use. In Cooper's words, "I will never be able to use a mobile phone the way my grandchildren or their children use it." He said that he mostly uses the phone to talk. Cooper also said, "The magic of mobile phones that people enjoy today will not last for a while. Each generation will become more intelligent, technology will become more advanced.'' The machine he invented 50 years ago is still the same!

Cooper made the first mobile phone on April 3, 1973. That phone was quite a heavy, complicated thing with many wires. At that time he was working in a mobile manufacturing company. The company undertook projects worth millions of dollars. Competition in the market is also great. There is a battle going on, who will be the first to bring a mobile phone. Because the plan of making mobile phone came to people's mind long ago. In the 1960s, a company introduced a phone system in cars. But that invention was not very successful. The car had to have a huge battery for that. Overall, the matter is quite troublesome. Cooper felt it didn't really work. People don't always have their own phones with them.

By the end of 1972, Cooper decided he would create a device that a person could carry with them at all times. Can be used anywhere. Cooper and his expert team researched day and night for three consecutive months. The solution will be available by the end of March next year. Cooper's first mobile phone weighed more than 1 kilogram. A maximum of 25 minutes could be spoken. With that 25 minutes in hand, Cooper made the first phone call to the office of a rival phone manufacturer. Said, “I'm Martin Cooper. I am talking on a handheld cell phone. A truly cell phone, personal, portable, hand-held.''
