I am in love with this.

The home screen design is so obvious it hurts -- flip phone UX for a smartphone. "Open and dial".

What's the story with the display? Do you have an actual proof of concept where you have a black and white mode that largely decreases battery life? Is there anything special about it, or does it just play into how OLED displays are locally lit?

yes we initially used OLED and our phones after testing managed to use on average around 65% of the energy with our ui. We're dropping it unfortunately as its a supply-chain nightmare.. (for now). Black and white mainly increases your focus sharply, but u can always disable it to colours.

Your website plays up the greyscale reducing battery consumption. If that's not currently the case you really should to remove that info.
