The ultimate calm phone technology for me was the simple LED indicator on my original Android phone, a nice soft green that would blink when you had a new message. No BING or RING, just a simple indicator that something needs your attention when you want to get around to it. Ahhh I miss that little LED. Now I have to put my device into do not disturb which is TOO quiet and I forget for hours to check it.
