66 and on my 2nd iPhone, my 2nd iPad and my first MacBook Pro. My husband who is 73 has my old iPhone 4s and my old iPad.

My first smart anything was a Palm pilot, then I got a Blackberry.

Im 22. Got an iPhone since the iPhone 3G. I don't even know how it feels to have a Samsung.
 
I'm 68, and have an iPhone 5.

Of course, as is frequently pointed out by many poster regarding old people and electronics...I have no idea how to use it.

I like to look at the pretty pictures on it, and the new pretty colors on it now...while carefully drooling out of the side of my face so as no to get the drool on the pretty phone.

Soon, I will hire a young person to come and show me how to turn it off, and do the battery filling up thing...and maybe make a call. I'm not sure that I can handle all those other things the pretty pictures on it do...:p


:rolleyes: ;) :D
best reply ever!

Agreed. As a 61-year-old geezer, I feel like Satan when I show younger people a jailbroken iPhone or show them how to access Settings, how to do a hard reboot, how to enter DFU mode, etc. I just don't feel right. :D

I bet they had also an empty look?

25 and I would sell iPhone SE if there would be no jailbreak :) Close system with many limitations and stupid things (no stock LTE /2G switch, no screen timeout block trigger in stock control center, no Bluetooth file sending between Android and iOS). But there is no better small phone on the market and with jailbreak it's way better than any Android phone I owned.
 
24. Started with the iPhone 4s. Then got the iPhone 5s when it came out. Ended up on android for a while but now I'm back on iPhone with a 6s. I'm glad I'm back and hopefully I never have to go back.
 
almost 70 and have been an Apple person since the Apple II. Since I've been a technical guy in computers all my life I don't consider myself and old geyser. I have an iPhone, iPad and MPB.

I had a Laser128, which was an Apple IIc clone, back in the '80s.

Well I am 79 years old. I've had the original iPad, then the iPad 3. I've also got the iPhone 5S, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 7. I've got two iMacs a 2007 and a 2012. Recently bought the iPad pro 12.9 inch and the smaller iPad pro for the wife. The only problem that I have is keeping up with all the updates on each device. I've only been using computers since 1996.
