Can modern people live without mobile phones?

In the year of SARS, I spent two months' salary to buy a Siemens 3508. The function can only make phone calls and send text messages, and the communication fee is still two-way. The caller id is the same as it is now. The difference is that most mobile phones were used as pagers at that time, and IC card phones on city streets were very cheap. You see, it can't be found on the street now, and it has been eliminated by society like a pager.

With the popularity of smart phones, traffic is more important than phone bills, and it is not enough every month. I remember watching a drama "The Man" two years ago, in which there was a line saying that' mobile phones have become the dependence of modern people'. I didn't believe the true meaning of this sentence until today. After work, I play mobile phones, play games, follow plays, listen to music, read novels and brush my circle of friends. One of my colleagues, he has fallen asleep and his cell phone is still on. Sometimes I wonder how good it would be to use my mobile phone for studying or making money. Learn English, stock market, do WeChat business ... instead of killing time with it.

As far as mobile phones are concerned, there are few calls and text messages. Should I cancel my mobile phone number? As long as there is traffic, change it to email, QQ, WeChat. I don't know if it's ok. You can try it, so you can save some mobile phone number to buy traffic, isn't it better? I forgot that WeChat is a mobile phone application, so we don't need micro-signals. I really want to put down my cell phone. This may take some time. If I can't let it go, I can only make it really useful to myself.
