People often claim that our lives have become much better with mobile phones than without them. However, others argue that they haven’t brought anything useful. I am going to express my point of view on this problem.

To begin with, there are many things to be said in favour of changing our lives with cell phones. Firstly, they might help us to keep in touch with close people. For instance, it is possible to contact with them at any place, at any time in a second even if they are on the other side of the planet. Secondly, there are some apps nowadays that can make parents feel confident about their kids. For example, there is an app which can identify where you are at the moment, so families can know what their children do and be sure of their safety.

On the other hand, some people disagree that mobile phones have a good effect on humanity. They believe that cell phones do a lot harm on people’s health. Sitting too much with gadgets can make your eyesight worse, airwaves can cause bad influence on the environment and humans.

However, I have another opinion on this problem. Personally, I think phones can help to get important information about health rather than do harm. Nowadays people can gain medical advice, access their analysis, establish diagnoses. What is more, they can get needful knowledge about healthy eating and diets.

To sum up, I feel strongly that it is much more easier and convenient with cell phones and they totally have changed our lives for the better.
