The term "mobile phone" is used in 99% of the countries in the world (including most areas of the U.S). The term "cell phone" is an out-dated expression mainly used in one country - the U.S.
Taking into account that "cell phone" is only used in 1% of the world and "mobile phone" is used in 99% then it makes sense to call is "mobile phone".
