IELTS SPEAKING PART 1: MOBILE PHONES [ANSWERS]

IELTS Speaking PART 1: Mobile Phones

 

 

PART 1

 

MOBILE PHONES

 

ANSWERS

 

 

What was your first mobile phone?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

I had a keypad phone (a cell phone with a physical keypad on the device) from LG which I personally bought when I was a high school student. It was a small and basic phone with radio as the only entertainment. I remember I bought it for only $60.  

 

(Answer 2)  

 

My first phone ever was already a smartphone. It was an iPhone 4S which was given by my sister. She gave it to me because she upgraded (exchanged it for a better version) her phone to iPhone 5S. I was so happy at that time because I was the only one who didn’t own a phone in our class. I was 14 years old at that time.    

 

Do you often use your mobile phone for texting or calls?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

I often use my phone for video-calling. I have a Viber application installed on my phone which I can use for contacting my family and friends. But if I don’t have mobile data or an internet connection, I simply call them as I subscribe to a postpaid plan where I can call and text without restrictions.  

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Well, I seldom call my friends or family unless it’s an emergency because it’s costly. More often than not, I use my phone for text messaging because it’s affordable. And since we have access to a wi-fi connection at work, I use my smartphone for video-calling as well, but of course, I only do that during lunch break.     

 

Will you buy a new one in the future?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

Absolutely! The phone that I’ve been using is already outdated – when I surf the net, webpages don’t load (to provide information) quickly. Besides, the resolution of the camera is pretty low. I think I’ll buy a new smartphone next month.   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Well, I don’t have any plan of buying a new phone anytime sooner because I’ve just bought the latest model of iPhone and I’m pretty satisfied with this new phone of mine. It actually cost me an arm and a leg (a very large amount of money) but I couldn’t be happier (to be very happy) owning the latest model of iPhone.   

 

How has your mobile phone changed your life?  

 

(Answer 1)  

 

My smartphone has greatly improved my life in a way that I can do online banking at my fingertips  (readily available), interact with my friends or family members who are living abroad in real-time, search for directions with the use of Google Map, widen my knowledge through reading education sites, and more. Well, my mobile phone is a tiny thing yet one of the most useful things I possess (own).   

 

(Answer 2)  

 

Wow, that’s interesting! My phone has revolutionized (transformed) the way I live my life. My phone is my alarm clock, my teacher when I need to learn how to cook a new recipe, my guide when I’m not familiar with the place, my radio when I want to relax, my entertainer when I get bored,  and more. Thanks to the development of smartphone technology as I get to enjoy the conveniences in life.

Julius M.

Author, IELTS Speaking & Writing Coach, Band 9.0 Speaking, First Attempt


Hi students! My name is Julius, and I'm the author of IELTSDragon. I'm a non-native English speaker who scored a Band 9.0 on the IELTS Speaking test on my first attempt.


I hold a degree in Communication Arts from Cebu Normal University, one of the Philippines' prestigious state universities, and I'm a licensed teacher and TESOL-certified. Over the years, I've taught English in a range of settings, including Business English to Japanese professionals at Nikkei while working for a UK-based company.


I built this website so you don't have to waste time and money retaking the exam. Every sample answer here comes from my experience as a Band 9.0 achiever and IELTS Speaking and Writing coach, written to sound conversational and natural, because that natural delivery is what gave me a crisp Band 9.0.


Use this site as part of your prep, and let's get you to your target band score.
