Mudita is not the first company to build a phone with an E Ink screen, but its Kompakt isn’t only about bringing the benefits of e-paper to smartphones. The company describes the Kompakt as a “minimalist E Ink phone” that’s designed to reduce distractions with a limited collection of bundled apps. The Kompakt is being made available to consumers through a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign . The earliest backers can pre-order one for around $325 with shipping expected as early as April 2025.
