Where exactly are you accounting for wasted time? On navigation? On posting about not having a smartphone? The amount of time saved not having a smartphone (interacting with the internet using a computer [keyboards, adblockers, multiple screens, user vs owner dynamics]) outweighs any extra costs in my opinion. Navigating around town becomes second nature once you stop receiving turn by turn directions from Google-et-al. The only argument I've ever heard of that rings true is not having access to ride shares (ironicly named to boot).

(I haven't investigated eg Windows phones.) > Navigating around town becomes second nature once you stop receiving turn by turn directions from Google-et-al. Depends on how big your town is and how frequently you go around in it. I typically don't receive turn-by-turn instructions where I live; I guess they only really make sense for someone who uses a car? That's not very common here.
