So, I preordered the Light Phone 3? I considered the 2 for a while but it is just to clunky with its eink screen, texting would be a nightmare.
What are y’all’s thoughts on the new design? Do you think minimalist phones are worth it?

If that’s what you want go for it. Screen addiction is definitely a thing.
Swappable battery is nice, though you might not need it. Battery is small but the chip and screen aren’t really doing a lot of heavy lifting.
Reparability is still TBC
That link doesn’t seem to talk about privacy, it does say it is based on Android 8.1 though.
There are some things I don’t understand about this phone. Why does it need 6 GB of ram? Why a modern chip set? Albeit low end. It seems odd. I have an iPhone 5s that I use everyday for reading online, checking the weather, etc. 1 GB and an 11 year old chip work fine, and it has more functions than this phone. Maybe it is because of 5g and NFC?
Anyway, give us an update when you get it.
Don’t know yet - there’s a lot they haven’t fully released. So I’ll keep watching it - if I change my mind, I’ll get money back :)
