To begin with I’d like to talk about a piece of technology that I found useful. Well, one piece of technology that I found extremely useful is my smartphone. I use it almost every day and it has become an essential part of my life. Firstly, I mostly use it for my studies. For example, by using smart phone, I attend my online classes, watching educational videos, and doing my homework. Also, I had prepared for my IELTS examination by using an app in that phone or YouTube videos which is really helpful for me. To improve my listening and speaking skills, it saves a lot of time and makes learning more convenient. Secondly, it helps me to communicate with my loved ones. Whenever they fire away from me, I can easily communicate with a phone call or video chat or text, which is really really useful I think and it makes me feel closer to my loved ones. Another reason why I found it useful is that it makes my daily life easier. For instance, I use it for take notes, set alarms, watching time and even manage my daily schedule. Sometimes I also use it for entertainment like watching movies, listening to music, drawing etc. Overall, I believe that my smart phone is a very useful technology because it supports me a lot in my education, communication and daily activities. I cannot imagine my life without it.
