A telephone, or phone, is a telecommunications device that permits two or more users to conduct a conversation when they are too far apart to be heard directly. A telephone converts sound, typically and most efficiently the human voice, into electronic signals that are transmitted via cables and other communication channels to another telephone which reproduces the sound to the receiving user.
In 1876, Scottish emigrant Alexander Graham Bell was the first to be granted a United States patent for a device that produced clearly intelligible replication of the human voice. This instrument was further developed by many others. The telephone was the first device in history that enabled people to talk directly with each other across large distances. Telephones rapidly became indispensable to businesses, government and households and are today some of the most widely used small appliances.

The first telephone connection in Bulgaria took place in the current town of Pordim. This happened in 1877 during the Russo-Turkish war in the siege of Pleven. Connected were King Carol I of the Romanian army headquarters and Prince Nikolay Nikolaevich of the Russian army headquarters. Today both buildings are museums.

The phone was officially introduced in Bulgaria in 1879, connecting the cabinet of the governor of Plovdiv with his office. The first long-distance telephone connection in Bulgaria took place in 1891 between Sofia and Plovdiv
