We all know that mobile phone is one of the gadgets that is popular and very useful. Whether for emergency purposes, business transactions, just dropping a message to a friend or loved ones and even calling someone directly. I think, there are only few people who don't have mobile phones. Now, for those of you who are avid phone users can you resist not to pick up your phone? Can you live without your phone? For me, I can't. No way! You can't take my mobile phone away from me :)

Yup, we need mobile phones most of the time. We really need to communicate really often, and one of the most easy to use gadgets nowadays is the mobile phone. I am a student but I see a lot of benefits of having and using mobile phone. :)

My answer is definitely no! In my view, mobile phone has been one of the most indispensable tools for people in the modern society. Without it, I would feel that I'm separated from the world and could do nothing. I guess only in those remote areas could people live without mobile phones.

I agree! I see a lot of people nowadays are very mobile phone dependent and can't definitely live with their mobile phones. However, I know some people that can live and can survive without their mobile phones.

Hello jeanieous. When it is working hours, I leave my cell phone on in case someone calls me for work contact, but if it is time off work, I would rather leave it off so that I am not bothered by phone calls during my break. So it all depends on what situation I am in. Take care.

You are absolutely right. My phone serves as my companion throughout the day. It gives me all the details I need. Take care!

i can't live without my mobile phone, the model i have now is kinda old now (2-3 years old) and it needs to be replaced, but until i can buy a new one i take it wherever i go, it's very useful to keep contact with my loved ones and in case of emergency..so i need my phone with me everyday :p

My phone is really old also. This is four years old. Haha. I still don't have to money to replace this. As long as I can call and send sms, I think that's all that matters. :)

i can live without my phone, but i would rather not. it's my connection to my loved-ones who are far from me. it makes them seem closer than they physically are. i can't imagine not knowing that something bad might have happened to them and they couldn't tell me right away, and vice versa.

Mobile phones make long distances reachable for anyone. It really connects people who are in different places around the world. Your loved ones will surely tell you their experiences whether it is good or bad. :)

My cellphone is very important to me, as it is the only phone I have. I do need it because my kids will need me for something, so I have to make sure they can get a hold of me. I don't know what I would do without it, as I would certainly be lost. I take it with me wherever I go, so I have it if and when I need it. I am certainly gald I have a cellphone. Take care, and happy mylotting.

That's the advantage of having a cell phone, you could bring it whenever you want and you could reach anyone. Me too I am really lucky and fortunate to have my cell phone with me anytime.

i think you know the answer of many people even before u started this discussion and here the answer for all is a big NO! Mobile has really become an indispensable toll in our life..sorry it's not a tool it's more than hat. It's a part of my life now and i can't stay a single minute away from it. From hearing music,texting friends, listen to our loved ones talk on phones, seeing their latest pics, watching great videos and using net on the phone i don't think i can explain the million possibilities of having fun on this handheld device. I love my phone a lot and take good care of it everyday.
I love chatting with my friends till late at nights!
I am sure many people feel the same way!!

Yeah, I feel the same way as you do. I really love and uses my phone a lot and would possibly can't live without it. I use it 24/7 not just by communicating with my loved ones but also for entertainment purposes. Without cellphones I think, this world will go crazy! :)
