When did you start using smartphone

I began using smartphone when I started working. I had to save a percentage of my money every month for 4 months before it became complete. And that's how I was able to buy my first smartphone.
 
If we talk about smartphones, I think I started using them between 2012-2014, I don't remember well, but my first mobile phone was a Motorola and I think it was between 2005 and 2007.
 
I got my first phone in the 10th grade of school, but it was not a smartphone, but a very simple phone only for calls and I don't remember if it had a camera. And I started using a smartphone for the first time two years after I finished school. And it was already one of the best smartphones at that time, because I bought an expensive one so that it would not break in a year
 
I don't remember exactly but I think it was almost 15-16 years ago when I purchased my first smartphone after getting myself accustomed with a basic phone from Nokia
 
I think that I first used a smartphone around 2010, however I'm not sure. Soni Experia was the first smart phone I bought. Despite being a fantastic phone, the features it had came at a high cost. I had to acquire a smart phone since I couldn't resist playing "Temple Run" after seeing someone else play it.
 
My first smartphone was an android phone powered by android gingerbread. It was bought around January 2013. I very much treasured the phone at the time even when it had specs that I wouldn't touch now. Can you imagine a 512MB RAM phone. But it was my first smartphone.
That's nice, my first smartphone was a htc model, I think it was running on version two back then.

Oh, Sony Experia! My brother had that type of phone years back and the experience was great. Well, playing Temple run was definitely a good reason to go and get a smartphone!
 
@Teegold did you play temple run? Now when I think of Soni Experia , it lacked the feature these days smart phones have. Also the camera (Rear and Front) were not at all good.
 
I started using a smart phone in 2010–11. I bought Soni Experia at that time. People suggested "Samsung," but I didn't go for it. It was a new thing for me, and I downloaded many apps on the first day.

Of course I did. Played it a lot when the game, and smartphones in general was still new. I played both temple run 1 and 2 very well.
 
It has been many years now and in these years the smartphone industry have seen many changes like now we can see foldable phones too

Yes it is amazing to see foldable phones nowadays. However, they are very expensive! From my viewpoint at least, lol.

I guess they are expensive from everyone's view point and have seen only business owners owing these or those that like to buy every new gadget that enters the market

Indeed, only a few people can afford those kind of phones. To be honest, I wouldn't mind getting one if I have the money. I feel like I might prefer it to iphone.

That's great!!

Many of my friends bought smart phones when they saw someone playing temple run; smart phones were new at that time.

But after a few days, I lost interest in the game. I started playing Candy Crush because you don't need lots of concentration in it.

Candy crush was popular then too. But it was a game reserved for the ladies. We didn't consider it masculine to play, they often make fun of guys that play it here😃
 
I never heard that this game is for ladies.😲 . Maybe you don't need to move your finger fast in candy crush like you have to do in temple run and other games so it is considered for the ladies. 😅 Here it is not considered.

Not just from your viewpoint, they are actually very expensive. My phone is due for changes but I have not been able to get a new one due to how expensive phones are today, especially if you have the type you are looking for.
 
I started using smartphone when my uncle got a new phone and and gave me his old one. That was the first phone I had and I was very happy.

Which year was it when you got your uncle's phone? When did you buy a new smart phone? I remember my father also asking me to take his old phone, but his phone was outdated, so I did not take his phone and instead bought a new one.
