It is nearly impossible to go out in public without seeing someone tapping away at a smartphone. This device, which combining many of the applications of computer with a cellphone, have become a way of life for many people. It is not a secret anymore that smartphone is everywhere these days. It seems like almost everyone has one, even if it is not supporting some fancy new model. Smartphone should be a good guider, instructor, teacher and also director for someone to make easier their works in daily life. In the other hand, smartphone could be a bad one to make worse of character building. That is why this text compiled to define the main of advantages and disadvantages of having a smartphone.

One of the main advantages of having a smartphone is constant to access internet. It does not take much of an imagination to come up with tons of advantages of having the internet at your fingertips any time you need it. Imagine that all applications of computer and cellphone join together in one tool. Then all of them become unity and people can use them all at once. Students want to find their assignment quickly? No problem. People need to look up the address that they want to reach? Just pull out their smartphone and case closed. Besides that, people can grab social media, news also instant resources by clicking one touch.
People get prominence that they can have conversation in cyber space. It has been beyond the cellphone which is just can sending text and calling. The different is people offered by a fancy appearance which is more attractive their feeling to use it. Even the news, how could we imagine that everything about this world exists in one simple size that we call smartphone. It is pretty amazing thing because people feel like they can reach the world without going around from one country to another one. People do have faith that smartphone could reduce several cases in their daily especially about eagerness. More particularly, usage of smartphone has surpassed laptop or computer. Students do not have to bring a heavy thing to finish their assignment. Instead, only bring a simple one which they can save it in their pocket.
In other respect, smartphone becomes another major disadvantage by several citizens particularly for some students in college. Try to see, if smartphone had not existed in this day, students would have had more time to have conversation with their own family. It means, before succeeding to create a high technology like this, students used to spend their time with relatives. Instead you have likely seen people around you, on public transportation, at school and in stores with their eyes and fingers glued to their smartphone. More particularly of interacting with people, they ignore to communicate face to face conversation for virtual one which is making them have no social interaction with neighborhood.
In this case, I believe the world has accepted that citizen should expand and adapt with technology. I suppose now people are missed understanding especially for parents who bought their kid a smartphone. They assume that smartphone is a giver not a helper. As general person, I observe this case is depending who is the owner of the smartphone. We cannot judge that smartphone has more advantages than disadvantages or conversely. Means that smartphone will be good as long as the owner instruct the smartphone to do it as well.
