See what he's replaced it with
Ed Sheeran, a Grammy award-winning artist, shared on Instagram that he has ditched his iPad and now uses a camera to capture memories like it's 1997. During his concert in Bhutan, he was seen living in the moment with his handheld camera, marking the first time an international artist performed in the country. Sheeran revealed that he got rid of his phone in 2015 to avoid losing real-life interactions and now only uses his iPad sparingly for work-related purposes. With numerous award nominations and wins, Sheeran was named the most-played artist in the UK for the seventh time in 2024. He expressed his preference for staying connected with people without being constantly attached to a device during a podcast with Ted Danson.
