Good dumb phones?

I wasn't sure where to put this, but here I am!

Title is pretty self explanatory, but basically I'm wondering. Does anyone here have any dumb phones? And perhaps know which ones are good?

I really wanna break myself from my smart phone and get a dumb phone (I don't think I still have any of my old ones </3). But I'd need one that can share internet, as I'll still need to bring my smart phone to work so I can sign into my email there (2fa bby).

Any recommendations? :D Flip woulc kick ass but not a necessity.

If you'd like to share your experience with dumb phones to others while yuo're here, feel free! :)

Thank you both!! The Nokia 2780 Flip doesn't look too bad! I doubt there's many cuter ones nowadays since that era is over, but a sturdy not too ugly phone sounds nice :D Maybe if dumb phones become more popular there will be more cute ones.. o.o

I'll have a look at DankPods' reviews before I decide on one, thanks again! ♡

if your country still supports gsm and 3g? get any old nokia brick, the new ones suck

better yet? just limit the distractions on your smart phone, only keep the necessarily stuff and make a healthy schedule

If only you knew how many times I've tried limiting my smartphone </3 It's too easy to remove those limitations and reinstall social media T-T

I originally wanted to find one of my old phones from when I was a kid, but we got rid of them all </3

I thought I'd let you know I ended up getting a Nokia 2660 flip and I LOVE it!! The 2780 didn't have the correct frequencies, but they're pretty similar apparently.

Living my best life rn, do recommend getting a dumb phone <3
