George, you are suggested to complete the description of information in the overview / introduction part in your essay. It is unfortunate that you created only two sentences that can be considered as a weak paragraph. Compressing the information into the two sentences can possible drag your band score down. Format your opening statement into at least three sentences this way:
- The graph reveals... (1st sentence)
- Overall, the mobile phones.. (2nd sentence)
- Meanwhile,... (3rd sentence)
You need to remember that 3 sentences should be written in each paragraph before it can even be considered acceptable by the examiner. The thing is, it would make you present a complete understanding about all the aspects of the chart that you presented. The major criteria in assessing IELTS in terms of Coherence and Cohesion would relate to this issue. Therefore, I suggest you to not doing the same mistake in the next IELTS practice.
