Although the convenience of being able to call from any location at any time is undeniable, the impact of mobile phones on our lifestyles and our health is predominantly negative.

Mobile phones are potentially one of the most dangerous devices on the market today, and yet even children use them. The adoption of the mobile phone by young people has been a global phenomenon in recent years. It is now an integral part of adolescents daily lives and is for the majority the most popular form of electronic communication. In fact, the mobile phone has turned from a technological tool to a social tool. However, there are also negative impacts on young peoples peer relationships. These can include ostracism and cyber bullying. Similarly, the mobile phone has lead to changed dynamics in the family, with issues of safety and surveillance from a parental perspective leading to negotiated changing freedoms for young people.

The different packages which now-a-days the different mobile companies have introduced have given the most negative impact on the people, especially in teenagers. They waste their most precious time on the mobile phones rather than using their time in studies and other important works in life.

The negative impacts of cell phones on the personal life and social lives of individuals collectively create an average impression on the economy, wherein it suffers globally.

Thus mobile phones have both positive and negative impacts on human ambiance. But as the saying goes a good thing highlighted can efface a bad one.
