Dear MEL Topic Readers,

The people deciding to ditch their smartphones

How long do you spend looking at your smartphone a day? How many times do you check messages or tweets every day? Many of those who have smartphones are glued to the tiny screen. One study found that the average person spends nearly five hours a day on their phone. When you check SNS, watch videos, and play games, you can easily spend hours gazing at the rectangular display. Indeed, smartphones are an essential tool for daily lives, public services, and social connections. It is much easier and faster by reading a QR coke than inputting or searching information. However, you may be missing the time and chance to think, feel, and learn things. While your phone is being turned on, your brain, senses, and mind are switched off. Some people realized that they had missed precious time and opportunities too much while using their phones and decided to abandon them. They now spend more time on other activities like reading, watching TV, or talking with friends and family members. What do you think? The best way to find the impact of using your smartphone is to turn it off or leave it somewhere so that you can spend your smartphone-free time. What do you think you will be doing then?

Imagine yourself on your deathbed. Will you be still checking or tweeting messages?

Enjoy reading the article and think about the influence of the smartphone on your life.
