Many Poskim say you shouldn't have a smartphone because of its addictiveness unless you need it for business. If you have a smartphone to learn Torah, do Kiruv, do some business, communicate with friends and family, how do you learn Torah from books despite its unbelievable addictiveness? A computer is already addicting. A mini computer in your pocket with constant notifications? Can destroy your Torah learning.
