International Cell Phones

Cellular phones have become a large advancement in the United States. We are now allowed to hold music, videos, take pictures, AND call people on our cell phones. However, people in various other countries have phones that surpass any that are sold in the United States. A new Motorola Phone can be purchased through export cell phone companies such as ImportGSM. This phone, the Motorola V3X, contains various high tech abilities, such as 2 way video calling and a 2 mega pixel camera. This phone will not be available in the United States for some time. However, it is available from international cellular phone consumers. The reason international phone companies can release these phones so much earlier than United States phone companies is the network that they are running on. The United States has spent a large amount of there time on developing a network that can run sufficiently to the needs of the American consumer. The international world does not have to create such a large network for their country. For example, the size of South Korea’s network is greatly smaller than the United States. This smaller network allows them to spend a majority of their time on developing and testing more advanced phones. International countries have better phones due to their more intense research on new technology for phones.

The U.S. (and Canada) is years behind the far east, near east, and even Europe, in most technology. I had a student from Dhubai five years ago who had a credit-card sized cell phone that had Internet access, texting functionality, and was also a still and video camera.
