I had a dumb phone until around 2011 and I really miss not staring at my phone all of the time. The only thing that gives me pause is my family sending links via text. I’ve tried other ways to limit screen time but if it’s there I’m gonna use it.

I’m considering getting one but for different reasons. I want to eventually bike to work rather than drive and it would be a good thing to have a phone for emergency purposes, however I’m not allowed to bring my personal phone into my workplace for security reasons. I was looking into dumb phones that could be less expensive and handle the heat and cold of the weather in my area if left in a bike seat storage. I don’t trust my current phone to hold up in those temperatures. The options were pretty limited and not as inexpensive as I was hoping, but one day I’ll figure something out. Maybe a light colored storage bag for the spring and summer and a darker bag for the fall so I wouldn’t need as temperature tolerant a phone.
