An E-ink dumb phone

What we did

The mobile phone has become a place of endless scrolling, relentless notifications and day-stealing screen time. Lofone flips the narrative on the mobile phone by offering only the basics; no social media, no distractions,just calls, texts, and the essentials. Blending stripped back functionality with a techy-rugged aesthetic we partnered with Lofone to design a phone that provides users with everything they need and nothing they don’t.

The Impact

Minimalist tech with a clear display

Lofone’s color E-Ink screen delivers essential functions with easy readability, helping users cut digital noise and stay focused on what matters.

Leading digital detox

Built for those seeking balance, the Lofone supports healthier tech habits and taps into the rising trend of mindful, distraction-free connectivity.

Rugged by design

Lofone wanted a design that looked like no phone anyone had seen before, a way to set them apart in such a competitive landscape. The final design direction places emphasis on durability and ruggedness. The interchangeable polycarbonate shell and replaceable rubberised tactile buttons result in a phone that is built to last without compromising on aesthetics.

Sustainable by default

Featuring a low power E-Ink display, replaceable parts and battery; Lofone was designed from the ground up with sustainability in mind. A phone that is not only good for your well-being, but also for the planet.

Tested in-hand

Using our in house prototyping facilities, we were able to produce numerous 1:1 scale prototypes for Lofone, allowing them to test shape, size, button placement and general ergonomics. This allowed us to rapidly refine the design and ultimately produce a looks-like model for general testing

Client words
