So the Nokia 3310 has been my minimalist / dumb / brick (whatever you want to call it) phone for the last couple of years. Hopefully I can keep this streak up.

T9 was a skill we all achieved it 😅
Where are you?
Us a gps for maps.
i got a new dumb phone recently and have been texting on it like no tomorrow lol, just like back when i was in highschool , took a few minutes to get my typing speed back up but muscle memory never disappeared
I personally found it liberating and I'm now able to literally think more clearly. My smart phone was literally sucking the juice out of my eyeballs! There's a dumb flip phone from the "Sonim" company that was so tough it was used as a hockey puck for a round of street hockey. After the game was over, it still worked fine! A simple phone is all you need. Trust me, I grew up before cell phones and we entertained ourselves by beating the crap out of each other. Aaaah the good old days!
You are awesome ❤❤
You are so so so positive I swear I first saw you and I was affected by positive energy
my iphone just broke today and I already had a dumb phone backup, so I'm just not gonna get another phone. just gonna stick with this dumb phone and see how long i stick with it for. i know living without maps is going to be difficult but i am moving to chicago soon and i know my way around chicago pretty well. at least to and from the places i need to get to. and of course I can always write down the instructions in advance
I had one of those original ones…omg i wanted to buy that but they shutdown 3g last year I read so bummer
I love how he chose a dumb phone over a budget android phone 😂😂😂
I thought Arabic was the hardest language for English speakers and Chinese was second hardest
Это хорошо. Сейчас слишком много ненужной информации.
Where is he now? Why he hasn't posted in a year?
Você fala igualzinho o meu amigo Gabriel
Still using it?
I bought a basic flip phone because all of my smart phone are in pawn. It broke me but i don't have any other choice but to pawned it.
i love this idea i kinda wanna go and join but at the same time wouldnt it be just as good if just treat my smart phone like a dumb phone 🤔 like i might have all the possibility and all those app but im not really interested in scrolling on instagram and tbh if im gonna waste time i can waste it on my laptop too
I liked your contents. Is this channel no more active?
I smiled when you took a photo
This guy is sooo cute
The Nokia 3310 3G has Java so you can download some pretty sweet games transferred via bluetooth install files. It works great.
Bro I just want to say, I think you have potential to be a really good CZcamsr, I know consistency is hard though, it takes a while to build up a following to make it worth while. But your video ideas and execution are cool and you have the personality for it. Also I'm learning Chinese at the moment because of my girlfriend, and this video has helped me learn some new phrases, really inspiring to see how much your Chinese has improved since the first video 😅
I agree with all that you've said except one. Texting is not that difficult in 3310. In the span of 2 years, you could have learned to compose SMS sans T9 with ease. It's a skill you just refused to learn IMO.
i recently got a flip phone & i just gotta say 1000% worth it !!!! let’s normalize dumb phones !!!!
I feel like I'm watching a video recorded by someone in 1998 not in terms of the video quality but the energy you present. I think these types of phones have a positive effect on people
I WANT YOU AS MY FRIEND, seriously you get me. My friends think I'm weird for wanting a dumbphone. They just can't get why I would give up the convenience of new technology for an older model. You are the only person I have found that explains exactly what I'm thinking 😅
It’s been a while since you came out with a video; hope u’re doing great on ur side of thw world, Jack 🙂.
pro:s more effective cons: breaks after 100 slams😂 Point proven
Why do I love how goofy it looks
My biggest thing is maps. I want to switch to a dumb phone so bad but I literally use google maps on a daily basis to get to new places I have never been to before. I know you said you just memorized it but like I live in an extremely big and busy city so there is just no way I can memorize a route like what you mentioned.

I'm switching to a dumb phone today. Bought a Trac phone. Turned off my s22 ultra today for 4 hours. It was like going through drug withdrawal. They made it this way, so we spend all day and night on it. We were not spent to live this way. Take the red pill.
I'm a programmer and a tech savvy and one think of my job is always being connected to social media and job apps. It got to the point that I was coding from my Iphone 14 pro at 2am and checking all of my social media at the same time. I decided to pull the plug one day when my wife and I where sitting down in the living room and we where both in our smart-phones meanwhile our 3 year old daughter was playing alone enjoying every single moment and us loosing out on her happiness, I felt disgusted knowing that I was missing out from my daughter's most valuable moments and I said enough is enough! Every since I have been using a dumb phone Nokia 6300 and have only been working from my laptop going to 4 months and I feel great with no worries, no stress, no headaches and the most important I get more sleep in and quality time to spend with my family. Reply
You are awesome 😎
headaches and all were fine but losing quality time with family is a serious crime , well done sir.
Excellent decision. I am planning to do the same.
Guys. Those are no dumbphones back in the times their name was keypad or candy-bar
texting with t9 is not really bad.
Nice review bro. Do you still use it? It's kinda inconvenient when using today
I use a Kyocera dumb phone. I can’t believe how freeing it is. Dumb phones are the wisest thing anyone can do. You are absolutely right about everything ,”disconnecting is leveling up to better connections”(read that again). Wonderful video!
suddenly remembered this channel… the videos here are brilliant
1 year in and reading more 😊
Just found this video. I am learning Chinese and have been for 5 months now. I am taking my time with it due to being a student and working. I am also learning Spanish. Chinese is much harder though.
Hows it going now? your chinese?
I learned spanish in school, and in college im learning chinese or arabic
did reading all these book make you read faster
u look cute hehe
I took about ten days to do this but I purposely took long rest periods between each study session, so my subconscious mind had more time to build pathways. And I'd always go through the entire list right before bedtime. I estimate that I spent about eight hours total studying over that ten-day period. I had the advantage that I could recognize all the countries and each one's capital city before I spent ten days learning the list in alphabetical order.
Hi! What laptop do u use?
Hey man learning Chinese for 4 straight days I understand everything you’ve said idk if it’s because I’m just learning to speak it not write it? But if you watch videos learn basic Chinese conversation fundamentals and then watch shows and try to talk to others who speak Chinese you learn super quick! To have a friend teach you like that would be so awesome
That dumb phone looks smarter than you..lol
Switched from a OnePlusNord2 to a Samsung guru 1200 ( DUMB PHONE ) yesterday. Gonna try and stick to it for the next 2 and a half years. Essentially, i was wasting too much time on my phone so yea..gonna use my laptop for Instagram and CZcams now
im a text ninja ,,, no t9 no prediction just thumbs faster than light
Just wanted to say that I fucking love the way you exist I wish i could be as cool as you😎
Where are you in Oz? Thanks for inspiring me to chuck out my smartphone
"You won't text anyone on this" Dude, you just need some T9 training lol
Wow, great idea to write on a piece of each characters. Could I just imitate the same way. And i started from chinese series better. i Q I Y I
