i felt cold vs i got cold

Both phrases are correct, but they convey slightly different meanings. 'I felt cold' indicates a sensation of coldness, but 'I got cold' suggests that you caught a cold or became ill due to your exposure to cold weather. The phrases are not directly comparable as they serve different purposes.
