It is a tool. Make sure to use it rather than allow it to use you. For my next phone I wish I could get a dumbphone but the need to have something like Google Maps is too strong. I’ll definitely just get a cheapie though, or perhaps a Fairphone.
I just got a fairphone, and so far i have no complaints. I have also made a concerted effort to stay off corporate social media too. Kinda bored with my phone in a good way, but can still call an uber if i want to.
I switched from a pixel 6, and i haven’t really noticed anything tangibly worse. Read a lot of complaints about the camera, and i have noticed it is slightly worse, but nothing really bad at all.
The circle to select is disabled. It doesn’t have wireless charging. Feel like the battery is a bit worse than the pixel, but its not bad. There’s probably something else im forgetting…
All in all, very minor complaints, and i’m overall very happy with it.

These badboys exist - tempted to get the hotspot and navigation version.
Flip phone
Wow and even those have touch screens (most of them:-).

That somewhat sounds like perfection actually:-).
Is the touchscreen experience less smooth than a traditional smartphone?
Touchscreen is fine

Oh that’s awesome! I barely use my camera as it is, so that is perfectly fine for me:-). Everything I hear about it sounds so good:-).
