The first mobile phone was first marketed in 1984, 11 years after Martin Cooper and John F. Mitchell gave a first demo: the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was the first of its kind to offer a total and more comfortable mobility, beyond the telephones that were installed in the cars. The movie “Wall Street”, starring Michael Douglas, shows the future of wireless communications from anywhere, anytime.

The cell phone would transfer the traditional location of a call, in a house or telephone booth, to any geographical point where it was at the time of receiving said call.

During the first decade of the new millennium, the design of the mobile phone acquired physical dimensions small enough to fit unobtrusively in a pocket. pants or jacket, or in a small bag: the mobility and weight of cell phones has contributed to comfortable handling and to being considered one of the essential objects before leaving home.
