Modern man, the most indispensable product must be a mobile phone! You go to bed at 10 o'clock every day, and at 12 o'clock still browse Facebook and Linkedin. Anytime, anywhere, even dating rare even once in a century is still staring at the screen.
To save the human being kidnapped by mobile phones, the design team from New York launched a Light Phone 2 that keeps you away from your mobile phone. This simple appearance looks different from the colorful mobile phones outside. Black and white, squarely.
The Light Phone 2 is a simple, 4G LTE phone with a beautiful black & white matte E-ink display.
By allowing you to leave behind your smartphone, it encourages you to spend quality time doing the things you love the most, free of distraction. We call this 'going light'.
The Light Phone 2 brings a few essential tools, like messaging and an alarm clock, so it's even easier to ditch your smartphone more often, or for good. It’s a phone that actually respects you.
I say sure, yes, of course. Light Phone 2 only retains these most basic features. Only one purpose, keep you away from mobile phones! As for the screen, a touchable E-Ink screen is used. Reduced radiation, not afraid of reflection. The most important thing is that the power consumption of the ink screen is small, ensuring the battery life of only 500mAh battery. Compact body, almost the same with bank cards, put into the wallet is not a problem.
In fact, the first generation of Light Phone is more "anti-human." There is no screen, the only function is to call.
Nevertheless, it could be to enjoy a morning jog, a meal with an old friend, a night on the town, some fun with your kids (or without them!), waking up with a coffee and a good book, a day trip to the beach, a long walk with your camera, listening to your favorite record, a nap in a hammock, or just plain space away from your Instagram & email to get something done for once. It can be as simple as running an errand or not sleeping with your smartphone. Having shared our original Light Phone with 10,000 users, the power of going light is one that we believe in now more than ever before.
Disconnecting is profound in a time when we have become so accustom to our existence only through hyper-connectivity.
