Should I buy a laptop or an iPhone?
So I've been wanting an iphone for a long time now. The phone I have right now is just a basic phone and I dropped it a lot so it doesn't work right anymore.
Today my dad asked if I wanted him to buy me a used laptop for school with the money he made at work today. He was like "i know you want a phone but you could use this for school" so I was like "okay." And its true I could use it for school cuz we do have alot of stuff online we have to do. But e have a family computer we could use at home or my moms laptop which she shares witht he whole family or at school i could always use the library computers.
plus next year our school is going "1 to 1" so every student is going to be required to have a certain device that the school chooses. So I could manage without having a laptop.btw i'm a sophomore in high school.
So now my dads giving me the choice between an iphone and the used laptop. The iphone i want is also $200. I think I'm going to get the iphone. But i don't know what do you guys think?
