Summary
While dumb phones may be falling out of fashion globally, there is a growing trend in the US of young people reverting back to minimalist phones. Companies like HMD Global, Punkt, and Light are catering to this trend, selling devices geared towards those who want to spend less time on their phones and social media. While the market for dumb phones in North America is currently flatlined, some experts predict a potential 5% increase in the next five years due to public health concerns.
