Compare talking on the phone and talking face-to-face

It is very different. Face to face, you can see your interlocutor's (=conversational partner's) facial expressions and body language. I think that meeting your friends is always more fun than having the conversation over the phone, because our dialogue can always be more vivid, you know, livelier. But the advantage of having a phone is that we don't need to meet in person to share good news or important information. It is very practical (=convenient) and a big time-saver.
