At the start of the new year i vegan using an iPhone 5s as a ‘dumbphone‘ in place of my normal iPhone 15. dumb phone life is so much more worth living to me. no doomscrolling to be don. i was sleeping better and more present in daily life. unfortunately the service on the 5s was not reliable enough (boooo american companies 4 shutting down 3g towers) phone for me to drive across the country with but i will be switching my sim card back to it ASAP. (it’s just an annoying process as my 15 has an esim and I gotta go to the store and all that.) attaching a mirror selfie w my benjamin franklin case in all its glory:
I’ve only owned four smartphones in my life so far. An iPhone 4s (which I swapped for another 4s two years in so I could switch carriers), an iPhone SE, and a 12 Pro. I’ll replace the battery midway if it starts impacting performance. I’m still extremely happy with the 12 Pro. This is technically my upgrade year but it still does everything I want so I may just pop in a new battery and keep trucking.
Really considering going to a blackberry or a foreign flip phone that has app capabilities here and there!!
If anyone has an experience with going thru with it, what do y'all think and would u recommend it to others to buy a phone as their daily phone :)
