Sunbeam Wireless makes safe and simple flip phones.

Basic, Inc (dba Sunbeam Wireless) was started in 2018 by co-founders Sterling Martin and Nelson Hoover. We saw a continuing trend by most cellphone manufacturers towards more and more features, which meant fewer options for those of us who might not want smartphones with all their notifications, and near-constant internet access on our phones. To meet this need, we decided to manufacture devices that are both practical and useful, but without the distractions and influence of social media and web browsing. The result has been a line of safe and simple kosher flip phones appropriate for all ages and lifestyles.

Simple kosher flip phones increase online safety.

Here at Sunbeam Wireless, we are continually working to develop products and solutions for those of us who wish to use technology in mindful and intentional ways – as a tool to accomplish necessary tasks while minimizing the unwanted side-effects. There are many reasons why we prefer intentionally limiting our internet exposure. Our reasons are increasingly common and will likely resonate with you as well. Some of these include:

Safety

Safe and simple flip phones for us and our children.

Focus

Helping focus our time and attention on the important things in life with less distraction and peer pressure.

Tools

Helping provide the tools for us to make a clean break away from our jobs during personal time with our friends and families, but yet not be completely unreachable.

Privacy

Or maybe even those of us who are privacy-conscious individuals wanting to reduce our digital footprint.
