I just started entertaining the idea of getting a more basic phone. I love my phone, but i love it too much. KZitem and reddit are the banes of my productivity and growth, even though i initially used them both for productivity and growth. I realize i need to set limits on what I allow as entertainment, so I downloaded apps related to things Ive always wanted to learn, or things that exercise my mind. Duolingo (Surprisingly great- Ive had it a week and I dislike myself for not trying it sooner), Mr Wolf (learn chess), grasshopper (learn coding), MapMyWalk, Coursera, 2048, and YouNeedABudget & Mint (budgeting apps).

I first got an iPhone a couple of years ago. Before that I only had two cheap smartphones I got second hand from family (android and windows phone RIP). I finally decided to get one after inconveniently having to carry around three different devices (especially on trips): a shitty smartphone for messaging and maps, an iPad for other apps and internet browsing, and a point-and-shoot camera. In the current state of the world I mostly use my phone for banking, books, language learning apps, music and podcasts. Haven't got a single social media app. I didn't have a data plan until recently so when I was still active on social media I was rarely on them outside of my house.

Then mama bought me Lenovo, and when i got a job i bought a used Xiaomi (but it was decent) and I gave my Lenovo to dad then he gave it to my niece (she broke it into pieces urgh..). I sold my last phone Xiaomi 4a to my sister's husband, he already broke it (I hate when people break my phones even though i sold it to them). Now I use Xiaomi note 8 - purchased this one on AliExpress for ~150$. I want to buy in the future some recent iPhone by that time or Samsung.
