A half-measure I've considered is dropping my iPhone in favor of (only) a cellular Apple Watch. This would allow me to call Uber, check my email, and do most of the other things expected by modern society, but harder to loose hours to the device.

I only have messages, phone calls (rare events anymore), informational things (weather, maps, and such), some audiobooks and music, and tracking things (for sports and athletics). When I leave the phone behind, I'm still reachable but find myself much more engaged with wherever I am than when I have the phone. Even better if you leave the headphones behind (which I don't always during exercises and such, but do the rest of the time).
