A piece of technology I find very essential in my life is none other than my mobile phone. My first phone was a gift. I got it from my sister when I passed my higher studies. So I remember it’s a Samsung phone, not an iPhone. So when I got that, I found it’s very easy to communicate with people and because I was entering to my university, so that time it was very convenient to browse the details which I needed for my studies. So then after I think after 4 years again I upgraded my phone. Not upgraded actually it’s also a gift from my boyfriend. So that time it was iPhone 7. So I was little bit confused first because that was my first time using iPhone so because I used to use the Android so some features and the configurations are totally different but when it comes to the photography so I think it’s better than Android and after I getting used to that it’s fine for me and when so and in now I am again using iPhone 15 so after I know the kind I I upgraded myself so when comes to how I How I open this actually, I can’t imagine how many times I browse the phone because if I go somewhere I definitely bring my phone.

A piece of technology I find very essential in my life is none other than my mobile phone. My first phone was a gift. I got it from my sister when I passed my higher studies. I remember it was a Samsung phone, not an iPhone. When I got that, I found it very easy to communicate with people, and because I was entering university, it was very convenient to browse the details I needed for my studies. After about four years, I upgraded my phone. Not upgraded, actually; it was also a gift from my boyfriend. At that time, it was an iPhone 7. I was a little confused at first because that was my first time using an iPhone, as I had been using Android. Some features and configurations are totally different, but when it comes to photography, I think it's better than Android. After I got used to it, it was fine for me. Now, I am using an iPhone 15, so I have upgraded myself. When it comes to how often I use it, I can't imagine how many times I browse my phone. If I go somewhere, I definitely bring my phone. I never forget to take it with me because it's essential for finding maps, making calls, and using social media.
