Sample Answer

Nowadays, mobile phone has become a basic need of every human being. We cannot think about spending our days without this device.

Although mobile phone got introduced many years ago, I received my personal phone after a long struggle. I still remember when I got my first cell phone. It was around 7 to 8 years back when I was in the final year of my graduation. My all friends used to have mobile phones to be in touch with their family members. I was also planning to get one but my pocket money was not allowing me to buy an expensive phone.

I did not ask my parents to buy a mobile phone for me but somehow they realised that I am in need of it. It was my birthday when they decided to gift me one cell phone. They bought a latest model of Nokia cell phone, Nokia 6600. To be honest I never asked them about the price of that but one day while searching for some other documents I  found the receipt of purchase then I got to know it cost them rs9800/-. It was an expensive model with all the features.

I was very happy to get that phone as it was a very popular model of that time. It had all the latest features, 8 mega pixel camera, media player and other in built applications like Facebook and YouTube.

My first cell phone was with full of advanced technology of that time but these days, there are plenty of options available in mobile phones. It had 4 GB memory but currently I am using a phone, which has 128 GB in built memory. It helps me to store all the important data handy. Camera quality is also excellent that can be compared with any professional Nokia DSLR cameras.
