I had a flip phone throughout my high school years before getting my first smartphone after high school I still have my cd player walkman from middle school, I still listen music via iPod touch

Excellent poetry! Love it

Hey, i want to switch too. Did you lose all your Whatsapp Chats when u switched to the Flip Phone?

about music, you can download music (legally or sailing the internet seas) and load it on a sd memory card, it may take more steps than spotify but at least you're sure none of your songs are going to dissapear on a random day because the artist/music label took it down.

I hate to brag but I’ve gone 76 years without a smart phone. If I win a valuable prize I just hope it’s not a Smartphone! Cheers!

When you say delete social media, do you mean the accounts or the apps?

ahhh CDs are amazing

I am currently using a Nokia 3210 that was released this year 2024

How is the message system/SMS? On my old siemens, If I first got an SMS from my dad, then mom, then dad again, the inbox looked like this: Dad Mom Dad So I had to delete messages all the time because it used all the space on the phone. I would rather have like it’s om IPhone; each contact have their own «page» with all the messages

I brought my flip phone today 🖤 excited and nervous

The Nokia predictive text used to be pretty damn good back in the day, is that not still a thing?

Interesting

The way you end your sentence is awful and unattractive. Stop copying rich people

2 year update??

How to reach out to you 😊

This was best decision, i also switched to flip phone, Cat flip 22

If you could again do a room tour, please with fewer details

You and other creators are slowly, but surely convincing me to make the switch..

Porque ya no hace videos

I make videos , mainly about wildlife and nature .It's put me in touch with visually every country of the word , where I connect with those living there .A positive genre , no trolls and posting is once a week or twice a week..British , Living in German one must speak fluent German but do enjoy the multi lingual nature .Finally, at times you can find the answer to a problem and that Ella is a plus for YT .Thanks again . All the best to you, Helena

CD's ❤✌️

All you need to do now Ella is stop using "like" every second word.

I'm so glad you are still around as have sent a vip message to your Nokia video 2years back .All I use is YT .Mainly because I do nature , wildlife videos .Plus living in Berlin provides architecture and the worlds best behaved dogs. .Nice to have come across you ..Best wishes from Berlin :-)

Thanks for this.Have seen several postings re this phone and am interested .No wish for a smart phone and the Sony Ericsson I have is ready for retirement .Been round the world with me and worked in Japan and America .++++ .You say the what's ap is no go .Would not use much as have Skype but have friends who do and they don't use Skype .Have read this has a camera .Fact or fiction ? .I see you posted this 2years back but hope this finds you .Thanks Ella and greetings from Berlin :🤗

Hi Ella, was this job entry level or did you need experience to obtain the position?

Love your videos and mindset!

For scrolling, you could get a figet toy that has that feature on it. Or rolling a ball across the table or something similar.

Hows it going now?

i still don't understand why anyone would use social media.

I been wanting to do this so badly, I get so disgusted with myself doom scrolling waiting time, I removed social media but still just find myself constantly distracted. iPhones are amazing tools but can also be your downfall. I like how you mentioned just using social media on a laptop etc. might try n dumb my iPhone done more until im ready to commit to a flip phone

I have a Doro candybar phone which is sort of wearing out (I dropped it in a washbasin on a train journey which didn't help). I can see that this phone would give others limited access to me, which is just as I like it. It is small enough to slip into a pocket unlike a big clunky smartphone... Nearly eveyone I know with smartphones have cracked screen glass.

I’m a teenager and I’ve had my smart phone for about 2 years now. I was so excited to get one as my family would always be on theirs as I am the youngest. I promised I would never be addicted and make sure I stayed happy and energetic. People and friends at school all have their phones glued into their faces before and after school. You just want to talk to them but they prioritise whatever is so important on their little screen. I feel I am the only one who realises this danger that will affect you for life. My daily screen time has crept up to around 5hrs daily, and no matter how many times I say I will push it down it creeps up. I am looking into getting a 2720 as I have watched countless positive reviews, but fear of being the odd one out in my friend group. Thank you for your videos about this as it really has helped me to make this hard decision

A 10 feet house? That's tiny!

Wow you’re really beautiful…strava date??😂

I would love to use a flip "dumb" phone. But there a some issues I have with it. I work in IT. So my standards on IT Security are pretty high, meaning, encrypted communication, which is not gonna happen on these, having my passwords on it, most of them around 21-64 chars, or passkeys. Since there is no device for my special use case, I have to stick with a smartphone.

girl use T9, it's a lifesaver

can't you just uninstall the apps you use too much?

In India that Nokia phone can do SMS Transactions so online Transactions isn't a problem

Shifting to analog life is very strange at first but slowly you get used to it and realize how peaceful it is.

I only use my smart phone 15 hours a week when I'm delivering for Uber eats.. after that I'm using this flip phone .. music ? My iPod touch lol .. my life is so much better now.

I watched KZfaq the past 13 years. I enjoyed it a lot. Never felt like a problem. But in the last 2 years the content got worse and the algorithm aswell. Now it feels like a problem, but KZfaq is such a great part of my life. This is so hard to quit, because there is no alternative. TikTok or Instagram are even worse. Netflix and Co are also getting worse with nothing to watch. If there would be an alternative quitting would be easy,..

I really wasn't expecting you to pull out a CD collection. 😄

Honestly since most of my communication and how people reach me is discord. If a flip phone could access it easily, I’d have no hesitation of ditching my iPhone completely

🔥 don’t be a sheep. 👏

I have a question. When I buy things online it sometimes need to verify the payment with my banking app on my phone.. is there a way around this?

Do you use it in 2024?

B7t doesn't it have like wifi and also you can install apps

Just use a gps device for car navigation.

Your point about Netflix and Live TV is something I have noticed as of late. Ever since I started getting back into DVD collection, I've noticed consuming TV shows individually rather than the assembly line of "content" produced by Netflix makes the viewing experience much better for me personally.
