Design Philosophy

Light creates technology designed to be used as little as possible. Born as an alternative to the tech monopolies fighting for our attention, Light Phone embodies digital minimalism - every feature has a clear endpoint, no infinite feeds, no ads. The LightOS is built around intentionality and privacy, offering only essential tools that serve the user rather than extract their attention. Their products represent a philosophical stance: your phone should respect your time, not consume it.

Framework

🇺🇸 US · $849-$2,499

Framework rejects the disposability of consumer electronics, building modular, repairable, and upgradeable products designed to last. Their philosophy treats computers like durable goods—bicycles and automobiles—where the expectation is long usage lifetimes and designed-in serviceability. Every component is accessible with a standard Phillips screwdriver, challenging the industry assumption that repairability requires sacrificing aesthetics.

Nothing

🇬🇧 GB · $99-$799

Nothing celebrates the beauty of raw technology through radical transparency, revealing internal components as visual elements rather than hiding them. Founded by Carl Pei in partnership with Teenage Engineering, the brand removes barriers between people and technology by stripping away the superficial and focusing on what adds true value. Their Glyph Interface and transparent designs challenge fundamental assumptions about premium product aesthetics.
