I don't see the attraction of the Mudita Pure (other than a very nice aesthetic). It just seems like a (hugely) overpriced Nokia feature phone.

The Yota phone from 2013 had a regular LCD screen on the front, and an e-Ink screen on the back. I think there was even a Yota 2, but in terms of general adoption, it flopped hard.

Hmmm. I'm also looking at it as a way of supporting a startup that's trying to do something different. I'm annoyed with BIG TECH at the moment.
