Smart Phones or Smart Owners?

Most of the phones manufactured nowadays are smart phones. However, it may be reasonably concluded from the smartness of the smart phones that their owners may be smarter than their smart phones, or less smart than their smart phones. Let us suppose that the owners are, or want to be, smarter than their own smart phones, but how?

If their smart phones are in English, and English only, the owners can be, and should be, or could be, if they are willing, smart or smarter in English, not in Chinese or any other languages, while using their own smart phones. If the owners of smart phones changed their smart phones into smart-in-Chinese-only smart phones, can they become smarter than their own smart phones in English?

That would be very highly doubtful.

Therefore, if the owners of smart phones in English are willing to be smarter than their own smart phones in smartness in English, they need, very likely, to use their own smart phones in English, and English only, and in an English that is itself better or smarter than the English used by their own smart phones.

That is perhaps the only way for the owners of smart phones in English to become smarter in English than their own smart phones, at least smarter in English than the English that their own smart phones can use.

Just for fun, and for some truth.
