A telephone with access to a cellular radio system so it can be used over a wide area, without a physical connection to a network.
1. How does a mobile phone work?
As you chat away, your phone converts your voice into an electrical signal, which is then transmitted as radio waves and converted back into sound by your friend's phone. A basic mobile phone is therefore little more than a combined radio transmitter and a radio receiver, quite similar to a walkies-talkie or CB radio.
A mobile operating system, also called a mobile OS, is an operating system that is specifically designed to run on mobile devices such as mobile phones, smartphones, PDAs, tablet computers and other handheld devices.
Operating System, abbreviation OS: It is the program to manage and control the hardware and software resources of the device, all applications must operate on the OS.
The operating system is the interface between the user and the mobile phone, and the interface between the mobile phone hardware and other software.
Mobile phone OS is the OS that operate on the mobile phone.
Android, IOS, Blackberry, Symbian, Windows Phone, Windows Mobile, android and IOS are the most popular mobile phone OS now.
Mainly refers to the software installed on the smart phone to improve the shortage and personalization of the original system.
E.g. Wechat, whatsAPP, Facebook imo, and so on.
