Instead of going watch-only, I went tablet-only for a while. That also discouraged doomscrolling as you’d have to dig the tablet from a bag instead of just grabbing a phone from a pocket.

Sadly most tablets are not waterproof, and are quite awkward as cameras. Otherwise I’d probably still go without a phone (I have zero need for telephone calls or SMS)

Watches are waterproof, but the camera is a bit of an issue when you're outdoors. Having an apple watch with a camera would make you feel like James Bond.
I think the original samsung watch had a camera. A little pointless. The apple watch has a remote control for your phone camera which makes more sense
