Not sure we agree. We've always talked about adding these utilitarian features since our initial launch. We don't see the Calendar tool we've built as a potential distraction. We draw the line with social media, news, email, shopping, discovery, internet browser or infinite feeds

@deebovv That's the reality of the cost of making a phone at our scale, custom hardware and software, with ongoing updates, including privately offering features like directions. We also don't plan to upsell you a new model, and with a replaceable battery hopefully it can last many years.

"Critics say the Light Phone isn’t worth the price because it doesn’t have the same number of features as a budget smartphone. To them, I ask: what is the price of your happiness? I don’t know what mine is, but it’s definitely worth way more than $339."

People want 'dumbphones'. Will companies make them?

Self-labelled neo-Luddites and the tech-stressed are searching for phones with fewer features. Industry experts cite precarious profit margins and a wobbly market around this need.
