Device dairies: Tales of Joy, frustration and connection

in Ladies of Hive8 days ago

Well, my present mobile device is one of my numerous blessings. Yes! When I think of the intricacies behind it and how I got it, I can’t help but be grateful.

Well, a little back story here so you would understand what I am talking about. Four years ago, I didn’t have a smart phone due to some incidents that happened which I would save us the details cos it’s long story. I was using a small torchlight phone given to me by a friend and believe me it was quite frustrating.

From using a smart phone back to using non. I felt the world has left me behind. After about seven months of being offline, a friend gave me a small android phone to use. I was grateful for it even though it wasn’t the kind of phone I wanted.

Along the line the phone screen got broken which I later fixed and after sometimes, I fell victim to some thiefs and they took the phone from me and I was back to another non smart phone.

All these were happening in a period of two years. They were two frustrating years and one day, I called my elder brother and cried to him that I needed a smart phone. That was in the month of February. He promised he was going to give me a phone and I was very expectant but it also lingered for another four months.

For another six months, I was battling with the same phone and it wasn’t funny at all, then one day I got a glorious call and was told that he was sending me a phone. My joy knew no bounds. I was over whelmed with Joy and it was even more joyous when the phone arrived and it was an iPhone 11promax.

Woow. I was glad to be back online. I was back to my online content creation which I had abandoned for over two years. I was glad I got a good phone and it was worth the wait because it served just the purpose I needed it for and the picture quality was superb. I also loved the three camera vibe.

I went back to work again and started making some money for myself. I was happy I could get a good phone that would serve its purpose. Over time, I had another problem. The phone memory of the phone was only 64gig and it wasn’t serving me again.

I had to always delete pictures and videos and to always delete and delete, it was very tiring. Hence I needed another device. I wanted to buy an iCloud space but it wasn’t even possible because they had ban Us from buying a space. It was really frustrating. So after two years of using this my iPhone, I needed another phone with a higher memory.

I complained to my brother again and again about the space issues with my phone. Then just two months ago, a good news happened. Well, he bought a new iPhone for his wife and he took his wife phone and then he wanted to give his phone out.

I told him I needed a new phone. He said his wife told him to give the phone to her sister. He said if he told her he wanted to give me the phone that it would cause an issue between him and his wife. So he came up with a plan.

My phone was iPhone 11promaxe 64gig and the phone he wanted to give out was iPhone 11promax 256 gig. Both of them have the same color. So he asked me to swap my phone with the one he had. I transferred all my stuffs out of the phone into the new one with the higher memory while he took mine and gave to his wife’s sister.

Just so that peace would reign. No one knew the phones were swapped except both of us. So that was how I got my new phone with a higher memory and it’s been the best thing that ever happened to me lately.

I am so excited and no more stories of no memory and all. I have the comfort to get as many pictures and videos I need for my content creation without having to worry about phone space. Such a great relief.

iPhones are my favorite brand of phone for now until I use something better. I just started using this one and right now, I don’t have plans to change it or repair it because it’s good and serving me well.

Am grateful for how I went from having no phones to using a very good phone brand which is just perfect for my type of job. Am grateful to my elder brother for all his help and support so far. Families are always the best indeed.

That's near miss to a crime, baby girl! You and your Bro swapping the phone 😅 I'm even sure his wife's sister wouldn't need the one with more spaces as much as you needed it.
