Some people believe that smart phones are destroying social interaction today. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Smartphones
are one of the most popular ways of communication
in the present world. There is an argument that smartphones
are damaging our social interaction whereas
others believe that it is part of modern communication
. In my opinion, Although
excessive use of smartphones
as a communication
tool may have some negative effects like addiction to mobile games, I agree that It has far greater positive impacts on social bonding such
as long-distance communication
and video
call function.
To begin
with, Smartphonesphones are useful devices to keep in touch with people who are living far away from each other. It has made communication
between people living in different parts of the world possible. For example
, A student who has left his home country for higher studies abroad can easily communicate with his neighbours and friends with the help of apps like WhatsApp, and Viber which isn't doable without smartphones
. As a result
, Smartphones
have not only removed long-distance communication
barriers but also
made them even stronger.
On the other hand
, video
calling is another great revolution for social interaction with the help of smartphones
, what's more, society members can now hear each other voices as well as
watch them live in front of their eyes. This
has made bonding and social communication
far more powerful. For instance
, Individuals may forget each other's face after some time but with the video
call function in ,smartphones
it will not be the case. Finally
, video
calling has increased community interactions a lot.
In conclusion, despite some drawbacks smartphones
have a lot to offer which creates social harmony. Its impact on long-distance communication
and its video
call function can not be overlooked. Therefore
, It is recommended that we focus on the positive sides of smartphones
rather than the negative sides.Submitted by nhassan003 on
