Dumbphone 2 update!
I want to start off by saying simply, i fuckin love this thing. its the perfect companion device and im sure just as well as a standalone one.
list of things i love:
-d-pad cursor
-apple music & podcasts
-uber lite
-incredibly easy setup
-simple to use predictive text
-quacks
-battery life
-2fa
-snake (important stuff ik)
things i dont love:
-whatsapp doesnt work all that great
-call quality isnt terrible but isnt great either
-no emojis (this is fine i just feel a need to express myself in such a way)
-no voice notes (imessage), not even a notification for them
-navigation sucks
-no notes app
I still use my iPhone for work, public transit, and banking but whenever im home or out and about my iphone stays in my purse. I do still use my apple watch as a pedometer and sometimes gps but otherwise the dumbphone is my main phone.
shipping took 5 days from DC to SC and set up took all of 30 minutes. it was incredibly easy and so far i have not needed any tech help from dumb.co but i have heard good things about customer service!
as for how im doing without my smartphone, well. im okay… i do reach for it at night to watch tiktok still but one habit at a time, eh?
