    Do you ever go smartphone-free for extended periods of time? What's your experience?

    I'd miss:

    - Camera
    - Maps/navigation
    - Music streaming/podcasts
    - Calendar & reminders

    But maybe I wouldn't miss much else.

    Form groups of four, discuss

    Sorry for double vid post, but relevant ↓
