Smartphone? Snare one!
Smartphones, does it make us more smart? A smartphone is a very advanced technology. It is also used every single day in our lives. They help and give us the information that we need such as any business-related matters, a 'toy' for a kid or a device that will give us entertainment. This may sound that it is a very good thing, but it is unfortunately not. Therefore, I will precisely explain the reasons why I am against Smartphones.
Smartphones are great when using for communication purposes but it is making us less smart as most of the people use it more often than we are supposed to. People have become less socially interactive due to their dependence and obssession in Smartphones. For instance, there are people that would constantly check their Smartphone while walking or doing other activities such as hanging out with their friends or having a date. This shows that people are not aware of their surroundings as they are always busy doing something on their Smartphone. This leads to lack of social interaction and may cause the person to not get used to talking to other people in person. Therefore, people should converse with other people, not with the Smartphones. Smartphones are becoming an extension of the human brain. People are being dependent to the Smartphones by using it as a GPS in order to remind the user about the upcoming events such as birthdays, assignment due dates, work-out routines that should be done on a particular date and more. These events and reminders are supposed to be remembered and stored in the brain, and our brains are supposed to be the one reminding the us these information. Therefore, this enables the brain to be more active and aware about our surroundings. Furthermore, by using the Apple iOS application Siri, people would not often be bothered to search the information themselves as according to the Apple website, Siri "..understands what you say, knows what you mean, and even talks back. Siri is so easy
