For a plane that's negligible.
Tbh, I don't want to sit on a 12hr flight watching a phone screen. I have to hold it on my hand, have nowhere to put it while eating, I have to plug it in to a charger as well (and it's never guaranteed there'll be a plug) + what the OP said about having to download more stuff to my phone I don't want or I might not have space for.
- mech4bg 5y agoFWIW I've noticed on a lot of airlines removing the screens have phone holders in their place and always have a USB charger. It's a moderate weight saving, there are some details in this article: https://www.fastcompany.com/3034196/airlines-are-tossing-seat-back-screens-here-is-why-thats-a-great-design-mo https://www.fastcompany.com/3034196/airlines-are-tossing-sea...
