An Iphone in the 21st century is a need, it doesn't need to be the lastest iphone or a phone made out of gold but they are needed in this day and age. Without phones, the world would plummel into darkness, no social media, no information, alot less communication and even trends would be alot less harder to express online.If we lost phones now it would cause chaos and im not even joking. Futhermore, without mobile phones the world would not be safe, when your in a dangerous situation what do you do? YOU CALL SOMEONE, without phones, what would you do if someone in a white van is offering you candy? Without phones parents or anyone can't check if you are safe wherever you are. Final response- Phones are a need in this day and age, without them, we would be disconnected. Side: NEED

In regards to your final response " Phones are a need in this day and age, without them, we would be disconnected." because of the over usage of mobile phones many people are disconnected from each other rather than connected. For example, back when phones were less mobile many people would chat and communicate with others on transport, but now many people refuse to make eye contact and are glued to their phones to avoid "awkward social contact" Side: WANT

A need is essential things, Like food, water, air and many more things. The difference between a need and a want is money because if you buy all the things you want you wont have any money but if you buy a little bit of what you want and you save then you will be living a happy life in the future. I stand for needs because I personally don't want many things. Side: NEED

Mobile phones are an absolute need in modern day life, from calling people to doing math phones can do it all. They can help people stay informed on the happenings of the world or help people stay in contact with each other, and considering how wide spread they are you are limiting what you can do, who you can contact and the information you can assess when compared to everyone else.

It is vital to have the use of a mobile phone at hand 24/7 not for applications but rather for on the spot communication to emergency services and your parents. Yes many people argue that you don't need a phone because they're a waste of money and are an over exaggerated need, there have been many children, teenagers and adults lives saved because of the use of a mobile phone. On the other hand many lives have been taken from mobile usage, in the car. Whether the phone is in use for the travel to school or everyday life, everyone no matter what age needs a mobile phone. Side: NEED
Within the 21st century, I believe that a phone is a need. Here at St Brigid's Catholic College, we use modern technology everyday to pursue our ideas & learning. We share each other's learning & work everyday through the internet system. When one of these network connecting devices slow down or crash, we need another device source. That's when a mobile phone comes into play. I know as a fact that my mother uses her phone to check the news letter & emails for both St Brendans & St Brigid's. These emails & notices being a need.

I think mobile phones are a need because in modern day society, that's how everyone communicates and it would make things a lot harder to get in contact with people. Lots of jobs are based around social networking and not having a phone would make it hard to see whats out there. I think a phones a need because with the people surrounding us all having a phone, you not having a phone would make you feel very out of place. For example its different to people living in the bush because no one your with would have a phone in the bush either. Side: NEED
I think that EVERYONE should have a mobile phone because of multiple reason. You defiantly need a phone when your alone walking home or anywhere. You would also need a phone to communicate if you are in trouble or you board. This century the biggest thing is social Media this has made the world the way it is today. our phones can be good and bad but in some cases mostly good Side: NEED

A want is something that you would like to have and you cant have everything because you will go bankrupt. The difference between a need and a want is money because if you buy all the things you want you wont have any money but if you buy a little bit of what you want and you save then you will be living a happy life in the future. I don't think that mobile phones are a need because people that didn't have a phone in the 17th century and they still survived. Side: WANT
Iphones are a want and always will be, you need water,food and shelter not a phone to keep up with the stupid #BOTTLEFLIPCHALLENGE #BLESSEDTOBEHERE ! How do you survive? from eating,drinking and shelter, not from looking down at your phone! Phones may keep you connected but to be honest they also disconnect you from the real world. Talking smack online to people won't help you get a job or a house. A need is something that keeps you alive and healthy, a want is something you want for your own personal reasons. A phone will never be needed and there is more to life than a phone! Side: WANT
