Being that this is a companion phone that is meant to get rid of extraneous distractions, there is something called Life Mode. When Life Mode is turned on, not only do notifications get silenced, but all of the wireless radios are also turned off as well. The phone is also put into Low Battery mode to conserve power (it only has a 800 mAh battery after all). The theory is that you can actually experience "life" when everything is basically turned off.

So, then, why not just turn the phone regular-off? What's the advantage of leaving it on, but non-functional?

I don’t see this taking off.

This is the equivalent of a $350 extra battery for those that don't have a rechargeable battery. There's probably a small market for it. Very small.
