I'm not going to argue with the creed or the idea. I'm just going to note that replacing your phone, as per their page, replaces one brick of glass with:
- Pen & Paper
- Flashlight
- MP3 Player
- Camera
- Watch
- Paper / Laminated Maps (arguably, a boring GPS could replace this)
Not listed, but they also replace:
- Audio Recorder
- Radio (news, weather, emergency alerts)
- Magnifying glass/binoculars
- Compass (To go with the maps, especially if you don't use a standalone GPS device)
- Calculator (arguably not necessary, agreed)
- Measuring tape
- Fidget Toy
It's always fascinating to me how much a smartphone phone saves us from carrying.
EDIT: If your goal is to reduce how much your phone can interrupt you or demand your attention, might I suggest turning off all (ALL all) notifications. It's a lot easier to be intentional about your phone use when it can't make a grab for your attention.
