Those who don’t identify as a fella also welcome to answer!
I’m getting tired of my wallet and I’m hoping to get some new ideas. Current EDC is my phone, wallet, and keys on a lanyard. Whatchu got?
Edit: I ought to be a little more specific with my EDC, since most people are kindly taking the time to do so.
Phone: Pixel 8 Pro Wallet: bulky leather wallet, I don’t even remember the brand, I’ve had it so long. Keys: a stylized lanyard with various house keys, car key fob, and a keychain that reads “I hope your day is as good as my butt” from my wife. I have to keep that, you understand.
Misc: Burt’s Bees chapstick, Listerine breath strips, and occasionally a utility knife depending on my destination.
Right pocket: Sunbeam F1 flip phone, space pen, moleskin notebook
Left pocket: rotates between Arduboy, Moaan eReader, Flipper Zero, or Rabbit R1
Rear right: wallet (containing car keycard)
Attached to belt: Ricoh GRIII camera
If you don’t mind me asking, do you get any mileage out of the Rabbit R1?
Only picked it up a few days ago.
I went the dumb phone route in March of 2023 because I was constantly scrolling or getting distracted while I was out with my wife. (Still use my iPhone on WiFi at home). Found that it worked well for me, but there would be the occasional question I’d have and have no way to look it up besides asking to borrow my wife’s phone.
She got annoyed, so I got the Rabbit used on eBay for $130. Got a $5/mo sim for it. I think it’s made a lot of improvement since initial launch comparing my experience to reviews. Battery life is well over a day for me, and I haven’t had it glitch out too terribly. Even the scroll wheel isn’t as bad as they say.
You just have to assume that 20% of the time, it’s entirely wrong. Like Diane Keaton wasn’t in 1989’s Parenthood, it was Diane Wiess.
I bought it under the assumption that the company would fold in a year or so, but there’s already a community rooting them and installing base Android. For $130, it’s worth whatever I can get out of it.
Edit: also aware of the glaring security hole, so no personal questions to the R1
