People had to rely on separate devices for different purposes whereas nowadays the smartphones are love to us to do almost everything in one place. Besides, it gives me access to huge amount of information which is particularly useful for my studies. Of course, I understand that spending too much time on a phone can be distracting, so I think it’s important to use it wisely. Nevertheless, I would find it extremely difficult to live without my smartphone because it helps me stay connected with others and makes learning much easier for me.
