When did you get your first cell phone? What type of phone was it? When did you upgrade to a smartphone? What type of phone do you have now?I got my first cell phone when I was 16. It was a Nokia phone and it was just for making calls and texts. I didn't upgrade to a smartphone until I was 18. I had an iPhone 3GS. I now have an iPhone 5s.

I was 10 years old when I got my first cell phone. It was a basic flip phone with no internet or app capabilities. A few years later, when I was 13, I got my first smartphone. It was an iPhone 4s. I remember being so excited to be able to use apps and have internet access on my phone.

I was about 13 years old when I got my first cell phone. My parents got it for me so I could stay in touch with them when I was out with my friends. It was a basic flip phone and I only used it to call and text. A few years later, I got my first smartphone. I was in high school and all my friends had them, so I begged my parents to get me one. I got an iPhone and I was instantly addicted to all the apps and games. I've had a smartphone ever since and can't imagine going back to a basic phone.
