Su principal característica es su portabilidad, que permite comunicarse desde casi cualquier lugar. Aunque su principal función es la comunicación de voz, como el teléfono convencional, su rápido desarrollo ha incorporado otras funciones como son cámara fotográfica, agenda, acceso a Internet, reproducción de vídeo e incluso GPS y reproductor mp3. 6, record 1, Spanish, - tel%C3%A9fono%20celular
