I agree it's not a necessity but it's certainly convenient (maps, gps, looking something up on google). It doesn't have to be one extreme or another. I certainly don't spend 4.7 hours per day on my phone (I don't believe that could possibly be an accurate stat), or spend $1000 on it. Buy a cheap phone and plan, turn off all notifications except calls and you get the best of both worlds.
