If you were to rename the smartphone, what would you call it?I use a smartphone as a music player, a camera, a note taker, a torchlight, an encyclopedia, a clock, a calculator, a dictionary, and a plethora of other functions. But not a phone.I would name it PVMT (portable virtual multi-tool).

>>109237827>phoneYou don't get the point of the exercise. Smartphones have a singular emphasis on the "phone" part. But it can be used as much more than a phone. For some, the phone aspect is not even used. It's like a pocket laptop.

I wouldn't name it. I'd ask Philip K. Dick to name it... and that's what nobody did.

Smartphone is fine.Smartphone comes from telephone, tele- meaning "far away" (like telekenesis and telescope) and "phone" meaning mouth sounds (like phonology)But if you are willing to accept a metaphorical definition of "phone" you could interpret it as a device that talks to other devices. Which is pretty accurate."Smart" because it's a computer. Smart phone = computer that talks to other devices.

>>109238190"Smart" is outdated, since "regular phones are nolonger in use. Today's smartphone is the standard phone. Also, it places a restriction on further advancements. When smartphones develop further way beyond their present state, they still will be considered simply smartphones.

You're all just insulting smartphones without engaging with the prompt. "Smartphone" sucks because it's an HRE term, it's not smart and it's not a phone. It's a handheld personal computing, media and communications device. Its information processing capabilities have a universal quality, and it exists in the form of a tool, like a paleolithic handaxe. It would be better if the name had a more direct line to its identity.>"radio" works much better than "phone" as an older device name repurposed for a more advanced one, because it still transmits radio waves>tablet, or microtablet/"my micro" to distinguish from larger devices; analogy to bronze age media>slate, tabula (rasa)>just device>"my data" short for "datatool">multi or poly, short for various official names>link, skylink, node, comm

>>109237777It was always called a PDA (personal digital assistant). "Smart Phones" are just a development of PDAs, but to sell them to normies you need to make it simple and relatable, the same reason the first consumer GUI software was skeuomorph.
