Quick Pitch:

Overview

The Light Phone II is phone for human, providing utility and peace of mind we’ve become accustom to with our smartphones, while eliminating the distractions and stress of social media, news, or email. It can be use as a replacement to your smartphone, a "second phone" to take a break during weekend or vacation, or your kid’s first phone. The experience is a combination of the world's thinnest cell phone built in partnership with Foxconn and our proprietary cloud software. Light makes beautiful objects that respectfully use technology to encourage and empower us. The Light Phone is our first step in making this vision a reality. Light is our movement.
