MOBILE PHONES
ANSWERS
What was your first mobile phone?
(Answer 1)
I had a keypad phone (a cell phone with a physical keypad on the device) from LG which I personally bought when I was a high school student. It was a small and basic phone with radio as the only entertainment. I remember I bought it for only $60.
(Answer 2)
My first phone ever was already a smartphone. It was an iPhone 4S which was given by my sister. She gave it to me because she upgraded (exchanged it for a better version) her phone to iPhone 5S. I was so happy at that time because I was the only one who didn’t own a phone in our class. I was 14 years old at that time.
Do you often use your mobile phone for texting or calls?
(Answer 1)
I often use my phone for video-calling. I have a Viber application installed on my phone which I can use for contacting my family and friends. But if I don’t have mobile data or an internet connection, I simply call them as I subscribe to a postpaid plan where I can call and text without restrictions.
(Answer 2)
Well, I seldom call my friends or family unless it’s an emergency because it’s costly. More often than not, I use my phone for text messaging because it’s affordable. And since we have access to a wi-fi connection at work, I use my smartphone for video-calling as well, but of course, I only do that during lunch break.
Will you buy a new one in the future?
(Answer 1)
Absolutely! The phone that I’ve been using is already outdated – when I surf the net, webpages don’t load (to provide information) quickly. Besides, the resolution of the camera is pretty low. I think I’ll buy a new smartphone next month.
(Answer 2)
Well, I don’t have any plan of buying a new phone anytime sooner because I’ve just bought the latest model of iPhone and I’m pretty satisfied with this new phone of mine. It actually cost me an arm and a leg (a very large amount of money) but I couldn’t be happier (to be very happy) owning the latest model of iPhone.
How has your mobile phone changed your life?
(Answer 1)
My smartphone has greatly improved my life in a way that I can do online banking at my fingertips (readily available), interact with my friends or family members who are living abroad in real-time, search for directions with the use of Google Map, widen my knowledge through reading education sites, and more. Well, my mobile phone is a tiny thing yet one of the most useful things I possess (own).
(Answer 2)
Wow, that’s interesting! My phone has revolutionized (transformed) the way I live my life. My phone is my alarm clock, my teacher when I need to learn how to cook a new recipe, my guide when I’m not familiar with the place, my radio when I want to relax, my entertainer when I get bored, and more. Thanks to the development of smartphone technology as I get to enjoy the conveniences in life.
