Self-labelled neo-Luddites and the tech-stressed are searching for phones with fewer features. Industry experts cite precarious profit margins and a wobbly market around this need.

I’m pretty sure that dumb phones, aka feature phones, are still a thing.

It’s just that nobody talks about that stuff.

Sometimes they’re marketed as a “senior phone”… Because you know old people. I guess?
