Introduction
The Philips Spark was introduced in 1997 as a basic mobile phone model catering to the needs of a technology space that was still developing its foothold in personal portable communication. While the Philips brand, widely known for its household electronics, ventured into the mobile phone industry, the Spark showcased the simplicity of mobile communication at the time. Although discontinued, the Spark remains part of mobile phone history, demonstrating the minimalist design and limited functionality of early mobile devices.
