Hello,

I am not fluent in English, and regardeless their availability I am wondering which term is the best term to feature 'portable telephony' : "Cellphone" or "Mobile" ?
OVT gives more results for the first one however I guess "mobile" is more used in the daily life. Which one of the two would you use or do you have an alternative ?

Thanks for your input and kind regards

"Cell phone" or "cell" is prominent in the North America.

"Mobile" is prominent in the UK.

I can't speak for any other region.
