Why people are split

The "try it" side wants their attention back and likes the idea of a phone that's boring on purpose. The "no way" side needs maps, banking, group chats and sign-in codes, and doesn't want to carry two devices.

How people voted

The live split shows on the card as soon as you vote. The vote count appears here once 50 people have voted.

A fun poll that anyone can vote in, once per device. It's not a scientific survey.
