I've told the more important people (family, friends, NOT work) that they need to call twice within 5 minutes to really reach me during the night if there's an emergency.
Besides, even if I have a smartphone, I absolutely hate using it to go online and whatnot.

All these smartphones look fairly interesting but phones in general are still annoying as fuck, I think the only reason to get one for me would be so I could go on the internet or play some games while I'm waiting for something to happen and have nothing better to do.

I like to keep it on because it takes me a while to get to sleep and I'm always writing stuff down on the notepad feature, or sometimes I like to quickly check stuff online. I don't have a problem with it and it doesn't impact me negatively.
