When I turned 13, I got my first computer, a laptop (a gaming computer, originally running Windows 10, ran Windows 11 for a very short time when it came out and it's been Linux ever since), although I'd had use of my family's desktop for a few years previously (10 year old very slow computer, running Windows). I was given a dumb phone at 11 (some Nokia), got my first smartphone at 14 (an iPhone), and the first smartphone I actually owned at 16 (a Motorola).
