I dont think I have left my house without my phone in 5+ years.
- jama211 1y agoI think it’s been 15+ years for me
- ethbr1 1y agoDo you folks not go camping?
- encrypted_bird 1y agoSpeaking for myself, that costs money and time, neither of which I have.
- JoshTriplett 1y agoMany people take their phone with them when camping. Even if there's some desire to "disconnect" (which not everyone has), people still want 1) a device for emergency calls, 2) a camera, and 3) a map.
- prawn 1y agoYes, far more than the average person - vehicle, car camping, backcountry, kayak, etc. I take my phone as a camera (still/video), for an extra map option with GPS, and for reading e-books or editing photos at night in the tent.
- seany 1y agoI try and do some kind of camping once a month and always have my phone. Typically it's in airplane mode and gets used for photos, maps, ebooks.
- cm2012 1y agoI want my phone more when camping.
- jama211 1y agoYou don’t take your phone when you’re camping???
- ethbr1 1y agoYes. And it stays in the tent. InReach mini comes with. Being connected to the internet or digital media is the last fucking thing I want when I'm in the woods.
- dakiol 1y agoI used to take my phone with me all the time (I used to have an iphone mini). The current models are too big. They are nice when i’m on the sofa surfing the web, but a hassle to take then in my pocket
- ipince 1y agoI agree the current models are all too big. I'm still using a Pixel 4 mainly because I don't want a bigger phone (oh, and free Google Photos storage of course).
- runjake 1y agoI'll often leave my phone at home if I'm going somewhere with my wife and kids. If they're with me, they have their phones and I'll instantly know if something happens to them, so no need to carry my phone. It's basically a self-psyop to break the dependency. I spent the first 25-ish years of my life without a cell phone, after all.
