3 Foot Cell Phones - World's Largest Mobile Actually Works
World's Largest Mobile Actually Works

A chinese man, Mr Tan, of Songyuan city, has successfully built what is reported to be the world’s largest working cell phone.

It took him six months to build the 3ft high phone, which weighs about 48lbs. It is an exact copy of his own phone that is 620 times bigger.

He incorporated all the features of his mobile into the bigger model, “The only other difference is that I didn’t incorporate the vibrate function,” he said.

A local journalist tested the phone by making calls and sending text messages and pronounced it completely functional, reports City News. Tan says it has all the functions of a normal phone, with a built-in camera and internet access but has to be plugged into the mains as he hasn't managed to build a big enough battery.
