Minimalist phone puts a stop to social media addiction

简约风手机助你戒除手机瘾

A startup* has built an anti-smartphone for people who no longer want to be obsessed* with their gadgets.

Called “Light Phone 2,” the device is an ultra-minimalist and elegant “dumb phone” that can send text messages, make phone calls and serve as an alarm clock. Like its predecessor, Light Phone 2 doesn’t connect to social media or websites.

Its creators say: “It encourages you to spend quality time doing the things you love the most. We call this ‘going light.’”

The original Light Phone, which could only make phone calls, launched on Kickstarter in 2015. It was purchased by about 10,000 people, according to the company. Light has set up a crowdfunding* campaign for backers of the Light Phone 2. The Light Phone 2 is designed to be easy on the eyes, with a matte finish that comes in either black or white. The matte finish* makes it easier to view the Light Phone 2’s screen while outdoors. It uses an E-ink display, similar to Amazon’s Kindle.

The Light Phone 2 takes a page* from Apple’s iPhone when it comes to some design aspects. Like the iPhone, the Light Phone 2 has a power button on the top of the device and a microphone near the top of the display. On the bottom side, it has a headphone jack, a USB-C charging port and another microphone.(SD-Agencies)
