I got my first cell phone for my 13th Birthday. My sister and brother got one shortly after that, they are both younger. I remember my sister was around 10 when she got her and she thought she was wicked cool. It was annoying lol. But the reason I got one is because I was constantly on public transportation alone or with my younger brother and sister and both my parents worked so they wanted to make sure I could get in touch with them.0

When I was 22 and working at my first "real" job after college. The phone was gigantic, and not the least bit smart.
I'm 34 now. I am very thankful that smart phones and social media didn't exist when i was in college. )0 -

It's been annoying me ever since.0 -
I was 25. I am now 30. And I honestly don't use my cell much. Except to play games when I'm waiting in line at the bank. HAH. And occasionally to text someone to arrange a date; "Meet at the park at 1?" "sure." That's my texts. Hahaha. Lame huh?
But honestly I hate, hate, hate typing on phones. Especially touch screen ones.0 -
I got mine at 12. My sister had to commute to school (45 km) and my parents wanted her to have a cellphone. Since we're twins, we both got one. I didn't use it until I went to high school (I was 13 at that time), but even in the first 2 or 3 years of high school I didn't use it much.0

I was 27 I believe and it was a large Qualcomm phone. They made you pay an extra dollar or so for the first minute of each call. It sucked, because there weren't actual package plans so you paid by the minute. Needless to say it was rarely used as there wasn't great service anywhere. It was for emergencies only. I am now 42.0

My parents had that very phone. I remember how awesome I thought it was. :laugh:
My high school boyfriend had that phone... and misplaced it at a party :huh:0 -
I'm pretty old, does a pager count?
LOL yep, me too! The first device I had was a pager. I was 24 when I got my first real cell phone. It only had regional calling availability and ran on 4 AA batteries. The company no longer exists. I'm 36 now and have been with Verizon Wireless for 7.5 years, I don't know what number phone I'm on though, lol0 -
21. I'm behind. ^^'0

This is kinda pathetic, but 35. I got it because I was caring for my mother and she would panic if I was gone for too long.0
