The irony of using mobile phones is that, while the main motive of the device was to help bring people closer it has somehow managed to distance oneself from the people who are around us. It leads to strained relations among family and friends.
Waste of Time- Time is money and money is time. While the use of mobile phones helps us access information it can also lead to distraction and us wasting our time surfing the net.
Waste of Energy- While the excessive use of smart phones can be very damaging to our health it is also responsible for making us feel drained and fatigued. This is because of all the energy that is spent unnecessarily on our smart phones. This energy that goes to waste can be otherwise put into good use and help make us productive.
Health- The blue rays that are emitted from the screens of our smart phones can have adverse affects on our skin and eyes. Apart from that, there is also straining of the back and neck muscles which in the long run can be very harmful for the body.
Poor performance of students- While the use of mobile phones during class hours is strictly restricted in schools and colleges it does not stop the students from getting distracted by it otherwise. This then results in poor concentration making them perform badly in class.
Loss of life- Road accidents as a result of being engaged on the phone while driving or riding has increased over the last couple of years. The wireless systems on planes can be dismissed as a result of using mobile phones on a plane thus causing it to crash.
Stolen data- While the introduction of smart phones has improved the efficiency of sharing data, it can also be very dangerous when it comes to matters of privacy. Personal information can easily be transferred from one android device to another while on an IOS device it is slightly harder.
Expenses- With the introduction of newer and better models of mobile phones to the market, customer demand keeps on changing. In order to keep up with the changing trends a person may find the need to keep updating the model of his/her phone which is an expensive undertaking.
