Answer: I absolutely can’t live without my smart phone. It is the most important thing that I have.
I bought this smart phone a year ago. I use it for everything and I always have it with me. I talk to my friends, listen to music and take pictures with it. It is so useful that I miss it when I forget to take it with me sometimes. It is very special because without my smart phone I feel inefficient. I cant even study without it as I use my phone to look for information online. My smart phone is the best thing that ever happened to me.
