[Debashis]

Do you remember in which year you had got your first mobile phone? What was the model like? Do you still remember the model name/number?

I had a Nokia phone that was big and bulky, but I can't remember the exact year, although it was in the 90s. I had just a few minutes on it for emergency purposes, all the good old days. I actually hated that and I didn't even get texting until about 7 years ago. eek. I'm so glad technology got cheaper.

The first year that I got a phone I actually used might have been 2019. I was just never into cellphones. Phones annoy me generally so I just used a home phone until I was 43 maybe.

If I remembered correctly, it should be in 2004 I got my first phone. It was a flip phone which I can't remember the brand. I had the phone until I started using android phone.

I think I got my first phone in 2006. It was a black and white Samsung hand set. I received this set as a gift from my friend. I used this hand set for more than two years, and then I started using Nokia. I used Nokia and then Motorola briefly and then started using Samsung phone again. I am still with Samsung brand.

I don't remember the year in which I received it, but I know how old I was. I was about 14 years old and I finally decided to buy a phone because I had been thinking about it for a long time. It was a Samsung E5, a very unique model because when I wanted to buy a case and told them the model name, they didn't know what smartphone I was talking about

I got my very first cellphone back in 2010. when I was in high school. It was a classic thin flip phone - nothing fancy, but I thought I was so cool having my own phone at the time. It could only really do calls and texts, but that was high-tech for a teenager back then! It's crazy to think about how basic those early mobile phones were compared to the powerful smartphones we carry around today.

I got my first phone in 2009. It was a gift from my mom for passing the college entrance examination. It was the days of Nokia. The phone was a Nokia C1, a java powered phone. But I so loved it at the time. That's a phone that I can't use as a backup phone now.

I can't really remember when I got my very first phone though, it was years back. I was still in secondary school back then and it was not a brand new one. I had to save for weeks and even months just to be able to buy it back then.

The year I got my first phone would be 2007. I could remember it was a Motorola button phone that was very strong, I used it for years. It was given to me as a gift by my mom for coming first in class then.

I got my first phone when I was 14. I was playing sports, so I needed one to contact my family when I was done with practice after school.

"Got my Oppo A12 back in 2020 and I must say, it's still holding up remarkably well! The battery life is surprisingly good, lasting me through a full day of heavy usage without needing a recharge. The camera might not be flagship-level, but it still takes decent photos for social media and everyday use. The software experience has been smooth with no major hiccups, and the design, though not the most cutting-edge, is still sleek and comfortable to hold. Overall, I'm impressed with how this phone has stood the test of time and would recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable budget option."

It was 2015 and then I bought my first phone. I personally put off most of my expenses because I wanted a phone for a long time and my parents added about 20 percent to me, and in the 10th grade I bought myself a new phone, although it was not as cool as others

 

[Ginger]

If I remember correctly then it was in 2009 or 2010 and it was a basic phone and actually in those days these basic phones were popular

 

[Sanjeev]

I got my first mobile phone in 2003 and smart phone in 2010 I guess, I am not sure though.

Wow what kind of phone did you get at that year? Probably a Nokia phone, or Motorola?

 

[eLdavis]

I was using a Nokia phone around that time, during does period, Nokia phones was king.

My first phone was a basic phone and at that time I was in college and we only got that to disconnect the landline as it was costing so much
