Formidable Wireless Featured in CTV News
Formidable Wireless was featured in a CTV News report exploring why some young Canadians are replacing smartphones with simpler flip phones to reduce screen time, social media use and digital distractions.
In the article, Formidable Wireless owner Jerry Edeh shared what the Calgary-based business has observed firsthand: flip phones are no longer purchased mainly by seniors. A growing number of younger customers and parents are choosing them as practical alternatives to smartphones.
Jerry also explained that some parents purchase flip phones for their children so they can make calls and send text messages without having unrestricted access to social media.
