An informal letter to Pippa, who is going to bake a chocolate cake.
Dear Pippa,
I was so glad to get your letter again. Your news was so interesting to me.
Well, my smartphone is quite usual. I don’t understand why people spend so much money on brandy things. It does enough things for me. I downloaded whatsup for sending messages for free. I almost don’t play games with my mobile. There are only a few apps for workout and some helpful apps for learning. Of course, I have apps for social networks and three game apps. That’s all I need from my smartphone.
Let’s talk about you. Why did you choose this recipe? What ingredients do you need for your recipe? Where did you get it?
I have to go now and I hope to hear from you soon.
Love,
Dasha

Hi Darya
Is Pippa a pen pal or a really close friend? I know letters aren't really that common anymore, but traditionally they would be very revealing and personal. You have the tone nailed down beautifully, but I would go into a little more depth. Very nice work :)

Dear Pippa,
I was so glad when I got your letter again. Your news are so interesting for me.
Well, my smartphone is quite simple. I don’t understand why people spend so much money on brandy things. It does enough things for me. I downloaded whatsapp to send messages for free. I usually don’t play games with my mobile. There are only a few apps for workout and some helpful apps for learning. Of course, I have apps to connect social networks and I have three game apps. That’s all I need from my smartphone.

Hey Darya! I disagree with this man's corrections. My corrections aim to make your letter more colloquial, as to how I (as an American English-speaker), would express these ideas.
Dear Pippa,
I was so glad to get your letter again. Your news was so interesting to me. <- this should be two sentences. You cannot separate them with only a comma, so good work there.
Well, my smartphone is pretty normal. I don’t understand why people spend so much money on brand-name things. It does enough things for me. I downloaded whatsapp for sending messages for free. I don’t play many games with my mobile. I just use a few apps for workouts and some helpful apps for learning. Of course, I have apps for social networking and three game apps. That’s all I need from my smartphone.
