Technology

It's not that deep mate, it's an expensive phone. Lot of buck for not much bang.

This is nothing to do with the interests of Big Tech, this guy has used old Big Tech design to sell a nice looking product, for a premium price. People in general don't like to part with that much money for something that is described as a "secondary device" that limits their capabilities in a way that they should be able to do themselves. Most smartphones already have digital wellbeing and parental controls on them. There are also tons of guides and apps on how to limit or restrict things on your smartphone that you can buy for a fraction of the price.

His pricing is all wrong, no doubt he will sell a few at that price to collectors, enthusiasts and some people that think it's worth it. But at the end of the day, at this pricepoint, the phone will surely fall by the wayside.

There are plenty of other phones trying with the same idea, but similarly, the high prices put people off, and many of those have premium features (ghost phone, light phone) The ghost phone also offers cheaper alternatives. For a retro look you have the Punkt phone or many others.

Tritt mal einen Schritt zurück und hol tief Luft mein Freund. Dann lies nochmal alles durch. Jemand bemängelt dass das gerät teuer ist und vage technische Spezifikationen hat, du nimmst das extrem persönlich nachdem deine deflektion dass man sich ja andere billigere Geräte holen kann, nicht wirklich landet. Das ist keine big tech propaganda, nur ein etwas dubioses Produkt.

Did you bring enough of whatever you’re smoking to share with everyone else? I’m almost out.
