By the time that the 90s came around, everybody could own a cell phone. They were no longer only a luxury for the rich and lavish people of the time. All the incredible advancements in technology had been able to make owning a cellular device much, much more affordable. The techniques that people used to manufacture cell phones had improved tremendously, the actual pieces of the cell phone, all the little chips and wires on the inside, had become much smaller, giving way to phones being able to be made in a much smaller size, and these new chips were a great deal more powerful and much more energy efficient. During the mid 90s, people were able to purchase a fairly decent cell phone for somewhere around two hundred and fifty dollars. When looking back at the almost four thousand that some phones previously cost, people were delighted with this friendlier price. During the nineties is when the real deal of the cell phone movement came about.
These cooler and newer phones of the nineties had much more features than did their ancestors. Battery life was extended by a lot and was now able to last for hours, although only needing a few hours to completely charge. The display screen of cell phones was able to show much more information. And best of all! Text messages (also known as SMS messages) were now able to be sent out to people! It was in the nineties that the glorious wonder of text messaging came about. Being able to communicate to people through text message was something that the people of the late 40s would’ve never dreamed possible. It is now one of the most valuable and greatest communication advances to have made it into our hands.
