The widespread use of hand-held devices, including smartphones, has been invested in language learning education around the world. This study intends to inspect Omani EFL learners' perspectives on using smartphones to develop their speaking skills. To answer the research questions, the researchers used a 5-point Likert questionnaire to collect data from 259 Omani EFL students from the English Language Unit, Preparatory Studies Center, University of Technology and Applied Sciences (UTAS) in Salalah, Sultanate of Oman. Findings showed positive beliefs about using smartphones. The participants stated that they sometimes use smartphones for oral skills. In the study, a significant difference between female and male students in terms of perceptions towards smartphones was evident, in addition to a positive correlation between the students' levels of study, perceptions, and uses of smartphones. In light of the results, the study provides invaluable recommendations and pedagogical implications for students, teachers, and syllabi designers.
