"…phones are connectivity tools rather than attention-consuming blackholes, and people actually talk to each other."

“While everyone in Sunny seems to carry around a phone, for instance, they’re a lot different from modern smartphones. Inspired by the design of Japanese lighters from the 1960s, the devices are curvy rectangles that can flip open to reveal a screen. But hardly anyone on the show uses them that way. Instead, they pop an AirPods-style headphone in one ear (the phone doubles as an earbud case) and do almost everything via voice.”

I’ve watched the first three episodes and the different vision for communication is striking.
