A Smartphone

Everybody has common knowledge about what a smartphone is and what it is capable of. Some people use it as a tool for finding information, some use it for social media and communicating with others, and some even use smartphones for entertainment such as watching videos or playing games. Those are all positive uses and beliefs, but there are some people that have negative beliefs towards smartphones. For example, some people believe that the use of smartphones corrupts our minds and will have negative impacts on us. They think it can cause addiction and would make us lazier as people. Some also think it affects our eyes by looking at screens for too long. So a smartphone is a controversial object with the different opinions people have on it and its effects.

  1. Nice. I’m not convinced the positive uses are also beliefs but your message is a good start. Any other parts that some believe also damage the body as well as eyes, neck and shoulders for instance? Why do you feel we as people generally ignore the negatives? Could society function without a smartphone nowadays?

  2. Clear articulation. What type of evidence is enough for this thinking to become belief? How about possibilities for it to become fact or truth?
