The 2026 dumbphone revival brings us to quiet-tools #5: Light Phone III. It handles calls, texts, turn-by-turn navigation, music and podcasts on a 3.9-inch OLED—without a browser, email, social feeds or an app store.

The snag: no autocorrect turns fast typing into a typo field, which makes it hard to recommend as most people’s only phone. Still, as a physical boundary around your attention, it’s unusually convincing. What would you miss?

It's my #age? It seems, that I was able to activate #flightMode on my #AGMM11 #dumbphone at some point. But I forgot about it and couldn't find the setting anymore. #FactoryReset was my way to deactivate it.

If someone happens to remember how to (de-) activatate #airplaneMode, please advise! Thanks!

Schaut mal, wen ich mit einem neuen Akku zu neuem Leben erweckt habe!

Verbindung mit Kopfhörern funzt.
Jetzt nur noch neue Musik draufladen, dann kann das 6300, das älter ist als neine Teenager, sein zweites Leben als MP3 Player beginnen.

Es war sogar in den Notizen noch ein 14 Jahre alter Einkaufszettel gespeichert. 😆

Interesting device. My teenage daughter is actively looking for a flip phone, this is certainly interesting although the price is a bit too serious, however, you‘d probably end up spending a similarish sum on a used iPhone….

Welcome to the Internot

Smartphones? Too smart.
Dumbphones? Too dumb.

We built the phone in between.
Does everything you want, nothing you don’t.

It’s the not dumb dumbphone.

Commodore made a social media-banishing flip phone

I just want an updated Kyocera Digno 3 903kc with the step counter but it runs more modern degoogled android and has a little more ram and storage.

TIL that the #Taxis app on #KaiOS (the #dumbPhone #OS) does #Uber rides

This means, #flipPhones can get Uber rides.

I know this sounds contradictory, but is there such a thing as a #dumbphone that runs a privacy respecting version of #android, similar to /e/OS? I'm planning to buy a phone for a kid, and I was originally looking at a #Nokia3210 or something similar. No apps or internet access. But then I wondered if a compromise existed. Specifically, it would be nice to be able to setup #owntracks on the phone, for location sharing, and maybe a few other useful apps, like #comaps. Does such a device exist? 🤔

Like a lot of people over the last few years, I've been getting really into the idea of regressing to a simpler phone that's just a phone, and demoting my touchscreen to being a pocket tablet. I've posted a few times on the #DumbPhone tag (#HatTip to @Mastodon for the feature that allows me to filter posts with a tag from a particular account). The first time in 2023, asking for device recommendations;

@HGU ja, genau. Sonst kannst Du nicht mehr Bahnfahren, Onlinebanking machen usw. Was ich an dem #Dumbphone-Trend nicht so toll finde ist, dass man sich dann zusätzlich ein weiteres Gerät kauft, obwohl auch das Smartphone, das man schon hat, ein Dumbphone sein könnte.
Wie wäre es denn stattdessen damit (für #Android): zusätzlichen Nutzer "Dumbphone" anlegen, nicht mit #GoogleKonto verbinden, nur Phone-, #sms und Kontakte App auf den Homescreen. Fertig. 😊

Alright, Apple, I give up. I've ordered a Sunbeam F1 Pro Juniper.

#carddav access and #wifi #HotSpot .
I will buy any "#dumbphone" with this 2 essential features.
Do current #Nokia #featurephone have them?

While I'm aware of the various de-googled versions of Android, and various other Linux-based non-Android platforms, I'm afraid I can't offer any recommendations, because I have no experience with any of them - or of Android or IOS, either. I don't have a smartphone. Or a dumbphone.

The others contributing in this thread have mentioned some I wasn't familiar with. Anecdotally, running any non-mainstream phone OS means putting up with a lot of quirks, but perhaps they have had better experiences.

Looking for a #dumbphone with @signalapp support. The Punkt MP02 is the only one I've found so far. Still for sale, beautiful design, but unfortunately: "5th August 2021 - Android and Vendor Platform security updates are no longer provided."

Any other suggestions?

While there was recently a correction in the "watch markets" which can largely be attributed to the state of the post-pandemic economy, I think the interest in #watches is going to gro. Why? Personally I think it's linked to the #dumbphone movement, which originated with some Japanese youths moving away from smartphones in order to detox from social media. Personally I think the idea of having a #Keitai (feature phone) with a #wristwatch makes a lot of sense.
