Oh, thanks!

The more I think about it, the more it does appeal to me. ABout the only surfing I do on my phone is Reddit, otherwise I just use it for texting, music, navigation, and weather.

Sounds like it would be great for reddit but you would miss out a bit on the video content

Theres a specific high refresh mode that you can enable at anytime to use apps that require scrolling like maps and video.

You should be able to mimic this on your phone now (at least the B&W part). Free new year's resolution.

Android:
Settings>Accessibility>Display>Color and motion>Color correction, toggle Use color correction on, select Grayscale

iOS:
Settings>General>Accessibility>Display Accommodations>Color filters, toggle Color Filters On on, select Grayscale
