Helping you live present, not plugged in.


David Dumfone

Hey friends,
If you’ve been watching this channel for a while, you know it’s gone through a few evolutions—from camera gear reviews to some deep dives into mobile tech, and now, something a little different. I wanted to take a moment to share what’s behind this new chapter and where I’m heading next.


Over the past few years, I’ve realized how much digital noise can creep into everyday life. As a dad, I want to be more than just present—I want to be attentive, patient, and warm for my kids, to give them my best, not just whatever time’s left after scrolling or checking notifications.

My discipline with technology shapes the time and energy I have with my family—for me, that means setting boundaries, practicing intentional phone use, and sometimes choosing devices that make those boundaries easier to keep, like dumbphones or minimalist phones.


It’s not just about quitting smartphones; it’s about being deliberate so I can focus on what matters most. Digital minimalism isn’t anti-technology—it’s pro-attention, pro-family, and pro-living a life that aligns with my deeper values. My hope is to share that journey, the philosophy, and the practical steps with all of you.


So if you’re curious about how small changes in tech use can lead to a bigger change in life—more presence with those you love, more discipline day to day, and maybe even a bit more happiness—stick around. This is the journey I’m on and the stories I want to share.


Thanks for being part of this, no matter how you found the channel or when you joined.

I got sick of reviewing crap I would never use. Moving forward I will make thoughtful videos, not frequent videos. I hope you enjoy and if you want to talk more, consider following me on X.com
