How old were you when you first got your own mobile phone?

I had a flip phone when I was 10. It was supposed to be my mom's but she didn't find any need for it so my dad ended up letting me have it

Forgot the age, maybe 12-13? In middle school.

I was about 10 years old in 5th grade when I got my first phone. I think it was an LG Rumor 2? It was one of those phones that had the sliding keyboards that were popular back in like 2010. It lasted almost 2 years before I dropped it in the toilet then cried for about 3 hours.

Q: How old were you when you first got your own mobile phone?

A: Well... I don't remember the exact age of when I got a cellphone, but I am pretty sure I was around 12 or 13 when I first got a cellphone. The first cellphone I had was a nokia phone. Don't remember what kind of nokia phone it was.

Around 10, I guess. That's when I started going to an evening youth group to play pool and karaoke. It was a Nokia 3210.

I would've been in about Year 7 (13) when I got a flip phone. I've since upgraded to smartphones (just like most people ...), but sometimes I do miss flip phones.

I was 5, my dad owned a cellphone repair shop back then so it was kind of an advantage. It was one of those Nokia dumbphones and I was the first in my class to own one. My other classmates got better phones than me after a while though.

For my thirteenth birthday I got a blackberry

i had this really crappy phone at like 13 that actually got discontinued because it was so bad. It was one of those flip phones but the cover was so thin in relative to a lot of other phones at the time and while that sounds like a good thing, it was actually awful. Then at 15 I got this really cool phone that you slid the top part up to reveal a keyboard. I loved that keyboard phone honestly. From like 18 till now, at 23, I've had iPhones since. Granted, I would eventually like to try an android sometime.

I had an indestructible brick that I used like 5 times when I was 11-12. Then maybe 2-3 years later I got a super old brick smartphone that was super thick. I remember thinking it was so cool having a touch screen when everyone else had a normal one. It looks funny placing it nxt to my S7 edge now ^-^

When I was 13, right before 8th grade.
