Cellphones

Cellphones! We call it 携帯電話(ケータイ, keitai) in Japanese.

Cellphones are very popular and most of the university students have one. Or some students have more than one cellphones.

I know you will be surprised at Japanese cellphones!:)
Ordinary Japanese style cellphones are folded in half types.
Because a cellphone can be a wallet, camera, TV, and we can easily exchange our information by using infrared rays!

In Japan, I  think smartphones, such as iPones, are not as popularize as in Europe yet. Because they are still not so cheap and don't include the fuctions that I wrote above. XD

However, it is getting popular and popular and the numbers of people who are using smartphones are increasing. 

If you are thinking of buying a smartphone, you can go to Sofbank cellphone shop (to buy iPhone), or to go to AU (to buy Android. Android seems very useful because it includes very important functions for Japanese people! For example, infrared rays, decoration-email, and also skype!)

The three biggest cellphones companies are

AU

DOCOMO

SOFTBANK
