I was 12 and my mum gave me her old Nokia brick phones. The best thing about it was that it had a camera on the back :blush:
 
I was a wee one when i got my iphone 4. still have it to this day :cool: (but Pocket Camp's not compatible with it. only thing i hate.) Its tiny and easy to sneak in class, heheheh.
 
sixth grade, for my 12th birthday. it was my mom's old iphone 4 (this was when the 5 just came out i think so my mom got the new phone lol). i managed to convince her bc whenever i wanted to go to a friend's house i'd have to use my friend's phone last minute
and my mom hated being called at work and it was a tedious task.
 
A black Motorola Razr in my freshman year of high school, so I was about 14-15. Still one of sexiest-looking phones ever made.
 
I was in 8th grade so it was right before my 13th birthday. I wasn't allowed to take it to school or bring it to bed. Until I was about 15. It was a Dr appt little flip phone but I was happy. Kids these days are getting iPhones at 8. despicable
 
I think I was in 3rd or 4th grade. I got some generic flip phone.
 
I was on the first grade in primary school so I think I was about 7 or 8; the phone I got was a rather sturdy Nokia one with an antenna on it. It was also possible to remove the front cover and it felt so cool and new to switch that cover from a yellow one to a shinier green one. :D I was so proud of it.
 
I had a basic phone in 5th grade at 10, got my first smartphone at the end of 8th grade at 13.
 
I was 15 and smart phones weren't really around (except for a small hanful adults who had the original iphone), it was a basic flip phone.

But I also had a Nokia phone that didn't work when I was 12. I used it to play Snake.

Probably 14? 15 maybe? It was a pay as you go brick phone, and I had to use my "allowance" to pay for the cards, it sucked so hard, it was back in the day when everything cost money, so you had to pay for the calls and texts and everything, so bad, I'd run out within the first week of the month MOST of the time. But I had a computer so I'd just IM once I ran out. XD
 
I got a flip phone in high school. I liked it better than smartphones now. At least that one fit in my pocket. I am surprised when I see young kids with smartphones.
