I'm still using the Light Phone 2.
|
|
|
|
They got rid of the percent button on the calculator,
|
|
which was bonkers and didn't work like any other calculator's percent button.
|
|
I know how to multiply by 1.20, so I wasn't using it anyway.
|
|
|
|
My wife has one coming in a few days.
|
|
She got us both these Lemur leather cases,
|
|
which hold a few cards.
|
|
I put my driver license,
|
|
a printout of my medical insurance card,
|
|
the Tesla key (which is an RFID card),
|
|
and a credit card in mine;
|
|
I no longer carry a wallet.
|
|
|
|
It crashes sometimes: I reboot it.
|
|
One time the voicemail icon was stuck on
|
|
until I had someone else leave me a voicemail:
|
|
once I deleted that, the indicator went away.
|
|
|
|
Mostly it's just a low-drama thing I carry around to get phone calls
|
|
and calendar alerts.
|
|
I also use it to listen to podcasts on my bluetooth earbuds
|
|
when I'm walking the dog home from dropping
|
|
my wife off at work.
|
|
But mainly, I don't think about it at all,
|
|
which is nice.

Jr has given up on the Nokia, I think.
|
|
It would get stuck trying to receive text messages once in a while,
|
|
and need the SIM card put into an Android phone to get everything moving again.
|
|
|
|
The fact that no Nokia 2780 reviews mention this makes me think the reviewers use the phone for a couple days,
|
|
write the review,
|
|
and then stop using it.
|
|
That's a shame.
