Maybe we should carry our phones around less often.

I carry a media player, like an iPod. 500GB sd card, balanced and unbalanced headphone outs, and actual physical buttons and knobs for control.

Phones can do everything, but there are too many compromises. Ebook readers, and media players do one thing very well.

You also get a lot of peace when you disconnect from apps, scrolling and notifications and just enjoy your music out in the world.
