Abstract
Smartphone, the magical invention led by the modern technology. Not only it is responsible for reducing the distance from one corner of the world to another, it has also it has made life easier for us. All classes and all ages of people use smartphones now. However, is the smartphone reduce the art of conversation? I think, yes. Therefore, this led me to establish the hypothesis that is “smartphone is reducing people from face to face conversation”. This whole research paper reflects that the smartphone reducing the way of face-to-face communication. My primary data analysis suggests that smartphone is a more convenient way of communication. Therefore, people do not need communicate with each other in person. Moreover, the secondary sources also helped me by giving the same result. So my hypothesis was proven very efficiently. Overall, I tried to represent that smartphone is reducing people from face to face conversation.
