I carry this combo everywhere I go. Way less friction than taking out my phone, unlocking, and suffering the horrible experience of typing something on a virtual keyboard.

I do enjoy the looks I get from friends and family sometimes, as they all expect me to be high tech everywhere in my life but I'm probably one of the most low-tech people outside of work.

The only productivity I do from my phone is reminder alerts.

Interestingly enough, this just shows how different people like and hate different things. I personally can’t stand writing with a pen, and am very fluent and fast with a virtual keyboard and would never describe the experience as horrible. I’m writing this on one right now, and it’s great.

I also don’t want to carry an extra thing in my pocket when I already have a phone.

But I’m glad what works for you works for you!
