Aside from Motorola's specialization in designing wireless network infrastructures and wireless telephone handsets, Motorola started on making its name known worldwide when the company released the world's first-only commercial cellular device, the DynaTAC 8000X.

The Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was the first mobile phone to receive FCC acceptance in 1983.

Bell Labs first came up with the idea of a cellular system in 1947, and continued to petition the FCC for channels through the 1950s and 1960s. During 1968-1983, Bell Labs worked on the system called AMPS, which became the first cellular system in the US, but did not design cell phones.

Motorola and others designed cell phones for that and other cellular systems. Most were large and heavy, and were installed in the trunks of cars.

Martin Cooper, a former general manager for the systems division at Motorola led a team that produced the DynaTAC, first cell phone small enough to be easily carried. He is widely credited for making the first private handheld mobile phone call in history.

While it might be considered extremely unwieldy by today's standards, at the time it was considered revolutionary, because mobile telephones were bulky affairs installed in vehicles. The DynaTAC 8000X was truly the first mobile telephone which could connect to the telephone network without the assistance of a mobile operator and could be carried about by the user.
