Young people are skipping smartphone upgrades: flip phone sales among 18-24s jumped 148% since 2021. It’s a “dopamine diet” from notifications, boosting in-person connection. 📱 #DigitalMinimalism #GenZ #FlipPhone

Some positive progress made it a good day; which in turn made it a good start to the week.
The dumb phone experiment will have to wait a little longer. While the phone arrived today, the battery it came with was a little spicy pillow.
I ain't risking an exploding battery so I just have to patiently wait until I source another one. Will check out some local stores tomorrow but I'm not holding much hope.

Motorola just expanded the Razr family with THREE new flip devices, each bringing its own unique combo of power, style, and flexibility! 🤩 The clamshell is back and it means serious business.

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.

The new battery pack came in the mail and it looks like it will be more conducive than the old one. It still hangs off of the bottom, but it doesn’t hang off as much.

🚨 Just what the world needed: a chronicle of a 10-year-old Samsung phone and its epic #odyssey with a SIM swap. 🙄 The harrowing tale of a family surviving on a single flip phone—truly, the #heroism is overwhelming. 📱✨

📱 Flip vs Fold Smartphones in 2026 — are foldables really the future?
After years of using both formats, I realized something: I don’t actually use the big unfolded screen the way companies expect.
Here’s my real-world perspective on where mobile tech is heading.

I felt a little bit weird about having the new cell phone just loose in my pocket, so this is my solution. It works pretty damn well. There is even a layer of felt on the inside to keep the case itself from scratching the phone.

Samsung launches Galaxy Z Flip7 with a bigger cover screen along with cheaper Galaxy Z Flip7 FE
Samsung is expanding its Galaxy Z Flip line of phones with foldable screens with two new models launching this month.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 is a new premium model with a larger cover display and faster processor than the previous-gen Flip6. And the company is also introducing its first FE (Fan Edition) model with a lower price tag. But the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 FE doesn’t seem […]

Now in College, #LudditeTeens Still Don’t Want Your Likes
Three years after starting a club meant to fight #SocialMedia’s grip on young people, many original members are holding firm and gaining new converts.
By Alex Vadukul
Jan. 30, 2025"Biruk Watling, a college sophomore wearing a baggy coat and purple fingerless gloves, walked the chilly campus of Temple University in #Philadelphia on a recent afternoon to recruit new members to her club.
She taped a flier to a pole: '#JoinTheLudditeClub For #MeaningfulConnections.' Down the block, she posted another one: 'Do You Desire a Healthier Relationship With Technology, Especially Social Media? The Luddite Club Welcomes You and Your Ideas.'"When a student approached, Ms. Watling dove into her pitch.
"'Our club promotes #ConsciousConsumption of #technology,' she said. 'We’re for #HumanConnection. I’m one of the first members of the original Luddite Club in #Brooklyn. Now I’m trying to start it in #Philly.
"She pulled out a #FlipPhone, mystifying her recruit.
"'We use these,' she said. 'This has been the most freeing experience of my life.'
If Ms. Watling had a missionary’s zeal, it was because she wasn’t just promoting a student club, but an approach to modern life that profoundly changed her two years ago, when she helped form the Luddite Club as a high school student in New York."But that was then, back when things were simpler, before she had embarked on the more independent life of a college student and found herself having to navigate QR codes, two-factor-identification logins, dating apps and other digital staples of campus life.
"The #LudditeClub was the subject of an article I wrote in 2022 — a story that, ironically, went viral. It told of how a group of teenage tech skeptics from Edward R. Murrow High School in Brooklyn and a few other schools in the city gathered on weekends in Prospect Park to enjoy some time together away from the machine."They #sketched and #painted side by side. They read quietly, favoring works by #Dostoyevsky, #Kerouac and #Vonnegut. They sat on logs and groused about how #TikTok was dumbing down their generation. Their flip phones were decorated with stickers and nail polish.
"Readers inspired by their message responded in hundreds of emails and comments. Reporters from Germany, Brazil, Japan and elsewhere flooded my inbox, asking me how to reach these students who were so hard to track down online. Snarky Reddit threads and think pieces sprouted. #RalphNader endorsed the club in an opinion essay, writing: 'This is a rebellion that needs support and diffusion.'"

The Boring Phone is a modern cellphone that’s designed to do less than most. You can use it to make calls and maybe send text messages if you remember how to do T9 texting. But this 4G flip phone doesn’t support mobile data and doesn’t run apps or games (except for Snake). It’s designed to offer a distraction-free way to […]
