Much more than just a product spec comparison.

If you're already a fan of Jose's, it's definitely worth a listen.

If you're new to the subect, it's still worth listening too, but Digital Minimalism by Cal Newport might be a better place to start.

Simple and Clear Reasons and Results

First off, José does a great job reading aloud his own book. The pace is very digestible. I appreciated his knowledge of how our brains are affected by digitalization, coupled with practical personal experience. This really is a book with the basic reasons how we are affected by the modern digital age and his own testimony, encouraging us to unplug as much as possible and overcome the challenges that will results as we lead a low tech life.

Setting Boundaries With Technology

I love Jose’s mission. This is a great book on ideas to strike a balance between living an intentional and present life while exploring ways to maintain the convenience of digital devices.

Anyone looking to live a greater, more rewarding life of discipline in the digital age should read this book!

Not what I was expecting

This is so bad… I thought it was going to be a thought-provoking book on the rationale behind disengaging from an overly phone-connected world. Instead it's a freaking product specification comparison log from an overly nerdy person deciding which dumb phone to buy. Super disappointing.
