Samsung Innovation Museum:The History of the Electronics Industry, Alexander Bell and the Telephone

Beyond the main function of phones: making calls, we live in an era of mobile phones that offer multiple functionalities like a computer, a camera, or a movie theatre.

Let’s look back at the beginning of the telephone.

Alexander Bell, an inventor who had a keen interest in sound, developed the telephone. He also proved the infinite possibilities of the telephone by making the first transcontinental phone call between two U.S. cities-from New York City to San Francisco.

With the rapid development of mobile technology, mobile phones bring new experiences to our lives.
