Conversation Mobile Phones

A: I have been using this cell phone for more than a year. I think its time to replace it.

B: Why do you want to buy a new phone? Is there a problem with this one?

A: Nah, but this is a very basic phone. I really need to get my hands on a smartphone now. All my friends are using a smartphone these days.

B: Alright. Which model do you plan to buy?

A: I think I will consult a few people before making the final choice.

B: Well, you could ask me.

A: Oh, sure. Do you have any recommendations?

B: My brother has recently bought an Iphone 5 and I think it’s really cool. You can buy that.

A: Yes, I could, but I am confused between Iphone or Android.

B: Try reading some reviews online before you decide.

A: Sure! That’s a good idea. I will check online.

Later ....

​

A: Hey ….. I have decided to buy the Iphone 5

B: Cool!  What are the features?

A: Well, it has a touch screen and a 8 megapixel camera.

B: What does it look like?

A: Didn’t you check it out on the internet? It’s the slimmest of all the Iphones yet.

B: That sounds cool. I think it is a good choice.

A: As your brother bought an Iphone, he might be able to help me with the App store. I don’t know how to download apps to my Iphone?

B: That’s not hard. Just go to the App store and browse through the categories you wish to explore.

A: Hey that’s easy. Will I be charged?

B: Well, some apps are free while you have to pay for some. It depends on what you are looking for.

A: So I didn’t have to ask your brother after all. How come you know all this?

B: My brother showed me last week. And it was so easy that I remembered right away.

A: Right! Thanks for your help. Bye!
