∙ 16y agoI would say that the more appropriate term would be cellular because it refers to the 'cell' system that is the basic technological component of how cell phones work. There used to be mobile phones that worked by a single radio transmission rather than the system of using multiple radio transmissions grouped into a network.
But as in any language, it is constantly evolving and changing, that is what makes language alive. So the best answer may be to wait and see what the native users of the language finally decide. So it may happen in the future that cell phones will be referred to as mobile phones to differentiate them from land line phones in homes. But this may not happen if enough people use cell phone as their only form of communication. So I think we still need to wait and see how the IT culture changes in the future before we get an answer to your question.
