Ed Sheeran Reveals: ‘I’ve Not Had a Phone Since 2015

In a recent podcast chat, he shared that he ditched his phone due to the constant pressure to reply to messages and the loss of real-life interactions.

Grammy-winning British singer/songwriter, Ed Sheeran has revealed that since 2015, he has not had a mobile phone.

In a recent podcast chat, he shared that he ditched his phone due to the constant pressure to reply to messages and the loss of real-life interactions.

Instead, he uses an iPad and prefers email, which allows him to respond at his own pace.

Ed Sheeran admitted that having a phone made him feel obligated to respond instantly, leading to stress and rudeness when he ignored messages.

Now, he enjoys uninterrupted face-to-face conversations and a more peaceful life.

Despite his busy schedule, including upcoming performances at Lucca Summer Festival, Hurricane Festival, and Rock in Rio, Sheeran is committed to his phone-free lifestyle.
