The Cell Phone Life Cycle

clock January 20, 2011 09:22 by author Andy Hellmuth

Even though you have probably already made a call, sent a text or surfed the web on your cell phone today, have you ever wondered how that magical little device is made?  It’s complicated. Luckily, the Environmental Protection Agency breaks it down in this tween-friendly poster of the life-cycle of the cellular phone. I highly recommend revisiting your middle school days by checking it out, and even complete some “educational” activities that go along with it.  As many good things that cell phones add to our lives, it’s important to remember that everything comes with a price and in this case, it’s damage to the environment. BuyMyTronics.com is proud to be an e-cycler and of the part we play in giving cell phones a second chance at life.

If you feel like you're on the outside looking in because you don't have an iPhone 4, a Blackberry Bold, or a Droid X, you'll be happy to hear that you actually belong to the majority of cell phone users in America.

According to a study from Forrester conducted this year, only 17 percent of cell phone users in America own a smartphone. This is true not only for the Baby Boomers, but also for the more "tech savvy" Gen X and Gen Y generations. While the Gen X'ers and the Gen Y'ers are the most likely to own a smart phone, less than 25% of each of these age groups own and use a smartphone. This means that the majority of these individuals are using "feature" phones; phones like the LG Ally or the Samsung Reclaim.
