🤖 Building a phone that is Enough!
🧑💻 tech
Recently, I discovered the Enough Phone Project. As you may be aware, I have used the iPhone 13 Mini as my full-time device for almost two months (only recently going back to my Pixel Fold). The iPhone 13 Mini is a fantastic form factor. Despite meaning performance improvements on iOS27 beta, the iPhone 13 Mini lacks that I rely on. This includes:
- always on display
- display more than 60hz
- decent camera
- lack of USB C port.
- UWB
- More RAM
Despite the above limitations, I still use the iPhone 13 mini every day. The size is just right.
A couple of young guys have come together to make a phone that is just enough. You can read about that here:

It comforts me that these folks come with experience: Dumbwireless and SLEKE
However, information about this phone remains limited aside from:
We're making a phone that:
- is comfortable to use with one hand
- Roughly @ 5.3” diagonal screen length, 5.2” height, 2.5” width
- built with premium components
- has good battery life
- takes great photos
- doesn't cost a gazillion dollars

I also want any phone that I buy to include MagSafe and it should be light 🪶
Despite the above limitations, I still use the iPhone 13 mini every day. The size is just right. For this reason, I am looking forward to how this project develops. A Kickstarter is launching soon.
