This is our "Teacher's Enemy Number 1". the students endless use of mobile phones in the classroom, so to make use of it and not to be upset... use it as part of the lessons, or play games like kahoot, or ask them the meaning of the vocabulary.

I'll think of just one each for now... Just for mobile phones in general, not necessarily smartphones.
Pro - as the tagline of that one phone company says - it connects people.
Con - people text each other instead of talking with each other even when they're just in the next room or in the same room!

In addition to the above-mentioned con:
I remember a concrete example when I said people are texting each other while in the same room. -- You may be able to relate since you are a college student. -- When we had group discussions with a professor/preceptor, a few members of the group can sometimes be seen looking below the table because they are looking at their phones while texting each other. I guess it is a high tech version of passing notes in class. But the con is that their attention is being diverted from the class or discussion.

Woah! They`ve been so engaged with their phones to the point that they couldn`t leave it and eat their foods.
