The US Start-up Lite launched its third cell phone: Like two predecessors, Light Phone 3 presents itself as an ascetic smartphone option that users do not continuously distract with social media apps and should also be durable and thus environmentally friendly.

Equipment instead of apps
Light phone 3 A manufacturer’s own operating system runs with lights. You cannot download apps for this. Instead, you select a series of tools that are displayed on the home screen of the device. This includes basic functions of mobile phones, such as calling, seeing calendar and pouring alarm watches.
Light has still integrated some additional features – for example a podcast player and card navigation. These applications are displayed on a pure black and white screen. The preceding was still an energy-saving e-Ek display, which is now the manufacturer Prakash saddle for an AMOLED screen. It is 3.92 inches in size and its resolution is 1080 × 1240 pixels.
First time with camera

The light deliberately screws its expectations: the purpose of the cell phone is not intended to shoot the most beautiful snapshot. Instead, you should be able to scan the QR code with the camera.
