My Media Timeline

Keypad phone is a type of mobile phone that utilizes a physical keypad, typically with number and letter keys, for input instead of a touchscreen. Way back 2015, keypad phone was the only thing to keep in touch with my father while he was grinding for work to provide a better life for us. I still remember that there was a time when we had to go to the beach to find signal and reach out to my father.

Television (TV) is a telecommunication medium for transmitting moving images and sound. Additionally, the term can refer to a physical television set rather than the medium of transmission. Television is a mass medium for advertising, entertainment, news, and sports. When I was a kid, I remember that my mother and my father brought us a TV.

Is a technology that uses radio waves to transmit and receive audio signals, commonly for broadcasting news, music, and other programs. It's a form of wireless communication that relies on electromagnetic waves to carry sound from a transmitter to a receiver. Radio can also be used for various other applications like radar, navigation, and remote control. In 2017 I remember when I woke up early in the morning I immediately listened to the radio.

A tablet is a portable, handheld computing device with a touchscreen interface. It's smaller than a laptop but larger than a smartphone, offering a balance of portability and functionality for tasks like browsing the internet, watching videos, and using apps. Way back when I was a kid, my father brought me a tablet when he returned home from Manila.

A laptop is a portable personal computer designed for convenient use in various locations. It integrates essential components like a screen, keyboard, touchpad, and processing unit into a single, foldable unit, typically powered by a rechargeable battery. When I was in 8th grade, I used to borrow a laptop from my niece for school purposes. It made my school days more bearable and easier.

A touchscreen cellphone is a mobile phone where the display screen also functions as an input device. Instead of using physical buttons or a keyboard, users interact with the phone by touching the screen to navigate menus, open apps, type messages, and more. On March 16, 2021, it was my birthday, and my mother surprised me with a mobile phone.
