The First World Smartphone: The IBM Simon


Here is the first world smartphone with its black box, leading to Web Design in Cambodia, Digital Marketing Agency reported. In addition,

The IBM Simon is known as the first world smartphone sale to the public on 16 August 1994, and it was combined mobile phone technology with a wide range of computing features.

“The Simon wasn’t called a smartphone back then,” said curator Charlotte Connelly.

“But it had a lot of the features we see today. It had a calendar, it could take notes and send emails and messages and combined all of this with a cell phone.”

“It only had an hour’s battery, it was $899 and there was no mobile internet at the time. So it wasn’t very successful,” said Ms Connelly.
