Pick up a phone that will keep you connected, not attached
The excellent Iris Flip phone has all the basic features you need in a modern phone — calls and texts, obviously, but its KaiOS platform can also run essentials such as Google Maps and WhatsApp. With a 2" external screen and a 3.2" internal display, you have enough real estate to stay on top of notifications, not enough to be tempted to doom-scroll the web for the latest meaningless trend.
The phone is praised for its speech control capabilities — open apps or dictate messages with a pretty accurate speech-to-text, which alleviates the issue of not having a huge virtual keyboard to type on. Then again, this phone is not about spending lots of time in your chats — hopefully, you will flip it closed and chat up your friends at the table.
It's an excellent phone to pick up if you want to try "digital detoxing" or to have as a regular backup. Maybe for hiking, for doing social weekends, or just in case.
And now, it's even easier to try — use code FLIP and you can pick up the Iris Flip for 50% off!
