He didn't invent it. The credit is given to Dr. Martin Cooper who worked for Motorola and in 1973 he invented the first truly working cell phone. From 1973 to 1984 the cell phone was only sold to the government, but in 1984 it went on sale to the public. At that time the cell phones were modeled after land line phones, were big, and were heavy. They were carried in a bag and the entire bottom was the battery. Coverage is was very poor since there were few cell towers at the time.
