1. Address book: Still keep it. Phone stores phone numbers.

2. I have a GPS, AND an atlas of Michigan, AND a compass in the car. Funny thing about the atlas is, it always works.

3. Clock. Still have a clock radio. It wakes me up to weather and local road conditions.

4. I don’t have a proper photo album, but neither does the phone have it. Most are triply backed up, on a hard drive/computer.

5. Camera. A good camera beats a phone.

6. Irrelevant. To m3.

7. The only timer I use is the one on the stove, typically for baking. Why would I use my phone for that?

8. I don’t really use calculators. I do most math I need to do in my head. If I’m dealing with larger numbers, I’m probably doing it on the computer, and the computer will do it for me.

9. I can drop my flashlight on the ground, and it doesn’t care.

Disclosure: I’m 33. I’m a millennial. An old one, but one nonetheless.

Actually I’ve ruined more than one good flashlight in my time by dropping it. I’ve dropped my phone a number of times and it never broke. Probably because I encase it in rubber.

I have an alarm bladder.

It never fails me!

Good point. A well made LED flashlight is dang near indestructible by "ordinary" abuse.
