How Do Smartphones Work

Incoming and Outgoing Calls


All smartphones can receive and send calls. A chip is implanted which allows the signal to be transmitted into and out out of the phone. The smartphones' clarity depends on the carrier and how strong the signal from the chip can be. Because a smartphone is technologically advanced, the use of the phone has not been diminished.


PDA Use


A smartphone also doubles as a PDA (personal digital assistant). As PDAs, a user can browse the Internet, do word processing, send or check emails and schedule appointments. Many PDAs today come with GPS; that feature is also incorporated into the smartphones.


Syncing Ability


Smartphones can be synced with the user's personal PC. Items that can be synced with the smartphones are music programs, operating systems, video files and various programs. Certain operating systems can be adapted to a smartphone such as Java or HTML. A program within the smartphone itself will include the adaptation software.
