I got off of the iPhone and got a Light Phone a while back and managed to use it for a little over a year. No internet, no camera, no email… Just talk, text, and an alarm.

I don’t know how long I’ve been back on the smart phone for, but I have hit my limit. I don’t like it. I find myself endlessly surfing youtube to the point that I am wasting time. I find myself pulling my phone out over and over again to see if I’ve gotten an email or an Etsy sale. I find myself knowing that and yet pulling my phone out over and over again to check the time. I just bought a wrist watch that tells time and yet my phone still comes out of the pocket. I just don’t need it.  

There are a few things that the smart phone has that the light phone doesn’t have for me. It is way easier to text on the smart phone than on the light phone. The key pad on the light phone is too small and there is no auto correct or spell check. My only other complaint is that the light phone ringer is pretty quiet. I’ve missed calls before because I couldn’t hear the phone. Aside from that, I am going back to it.

It’s a great choice for people like me. People that aren’t all that interested in the internet. And, those like me who are epileptic. The matted screen is healthier to look at than a smart phone.
