敢不敢抛弃智能手机 Digitally weary users switch to dumb phone

一些用户为了有意识地试图与现代数字世界隔绝，而购买上网功能有限或者没有上网功能的手机。Light Phone创始人乔攠利耶(Joe Hollier)就是其中的一员。这位25岁的前滑板运动员开发了一款信用卡大小的手机，除接打电话外，没有数据连接或其他额外功能。他形容，移除查看邮件或更新状态功能带来一种巨大的放松感觉。

Analysts say that there is a growing number of “second phoneys” who use an expensive smartphone or “phablet” during the day, but turn to cheaper, pocket-sized devices when they go out in the evening.

分析师们表示，越来越多的人使用两部手机：白天使用昂贵智能手机或平板手机，晚上外出时则换成较为廉价的袖珍手机。

The Light Phone functions as a compnion device to a smartphone but Mr Hollier hopes it will also encourage people to unplug from the modern internet world.

Light Phone就像是智能手机的伴侣，但奥利耶希望它还会鼓励人们时不时暂别现代互联网世界。

There are also practical reasons why some are turning their backs on smartphones. The short battery life of devices is a source of constant complaint and many travellers are still attracted to the reliability and long battery life of older phones.
