150 years in, are YOU up to speed?
Telephones today bear scant resemblance to the huge, clunky, wire-strung, single-purpose devices that united voices a century and a half ago. Scientific, technological, and commercial innovations have surpassed the original purpose of the wired “landline” telephone, offering astounding capabilities and untold advancements that are always on the horizon.
Mr. Bell’s not-quite-unique invention (patented March 7, 1876, famously tested on March 10, unveiled publicly on June 25) had a single purpose. Once proven, the telephone revolutionized communication itself, then spawned and nourished whole new industries worldwide. Modern phones can predict our needs, get answers in a flash, and travel almost anywhere without failing. We’ve come a long way, baby!
On this National Telephone Day, Russell Cellular wants to know:
- Are YOU keeping up with the times?
- Do you KNOW what you’re missing out on?
- Don’t you DESERVE the finer things? (Of course you do.)
Take this quick Tech Check to see where you stand:
- Is the phone in your hand/pocket scratched and cracked? Smudged or grimy?
- Is the charging port clogged with fuzz?
- Do random children laugh about its laggy speed, low image quality, or pitifully basic functions right to your face?
These could all be troubling signs that your phone is way past its prime. An immediate upgrade is probably called for, but fret not, gentle readers – the news is good:
Russell Cellular offers great smartphone options from top brands plus great pricing, whether you locate a Verizon store or shop online. Choose the perfect device and plan to match your lifestyle today – and enjoy the best wireless experience on the nation’s most reliable 5G network.

We try not to entertain such unpleasant thoughts, but can you imagine being without your phone? Gasp! Could you imagine if the wireless phone had never been invented, let alone the smartphone? We’d all be decoding “dots and dashes” sent across miles of telegraph cables – or waiting on the mail like simple cavemen.

Thankfully, Russell Cellular is the Verizon authorized retailer best prepared and most intent on providing the right solution for every customer, every time. We just don’t recommend waiting 150 years to upgrade!
