Recently,
one of my friend’s cellphone broke down and asked me for some suggestions about
her new phone. After I named some different cellphone models. She complained to
me: “Those cellphone are really nice, but all of them are too big for me, could
you name some small size cellphone to me?” After we searched over two hours about
the small size cellphone on the internet, she finally decided which smartphone
she is going to buy. It also makes me wonder “Why cellphone is getting bigger
and bigger?”

I
tried to search the answer from the internet, but most of those explains are
talking about because of the manufacturing technology are improved and it’s easier
to make a big screen size cellphone than before. The other point is the profit,
because bigger screen cellphone usually can sell higher price which means more
profit. The third one is the market, more and more cellphone company are
producing the bigger screen size cellphone to the market, because they don’t want
lose the big screen size cellphone market share(That’s why you can see Apple
start celling iPhone 6 Plus in 2014) .
But
according my observation, I think there are three more reasons why cellphone is
getting bigger and bigger. First, cellphone are no longer cellphone anymore. People
nowadays don’t just want their cellphone can make phone call or send text
message. They want more functions, such are write & reply email, read news
or play games on their cellphone. Those additional functions require bigger
screen to give the customer the best using experience. Second, the battery life
is really not a big issue nowadays. Because bigger screen also means the battery
will die faster, the cellphone producer are trying to put higher battery
capacity into their phone. Meanwhile, people are getting used to charge their
phone every night before they go to sleep. So the battery life is not important
than it used to be. Third, you don’t need to worry about your cellphone will
drop into the toilet anymore!!! :)
