For me it's maps and WhatsApp sadly. If I could get out of those, I would go to a dumb phone fairly quickly
Quite a few of the dumb phones have WhatsApp. Although the maps experience would suck.
Personally, since they already have WhatsApp, having a good camera and 5G tether are my two wishlist items. 4G tether is probably fine for the most part but the good camera would be missed.
That with an iPad mini, so that I can still use banking apps and maps but I'd have it in a bag so that it's not simple to access and I could leave it at home would be my ideal.
Do you happen to know a few of these? We don't have these in the US
You mean like this? Nokia 6300, has WhatsApp, apparently has Google Maps, 4G for tethering. Shitty camera is the drawback for me, otherwise it hits all the spots.

Loos like that one is no longer sold in the US, but I see this one is Nokia 2780 Flip | Unlocked | Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile | Blue https://a.co/d/2gPbkB8
That's a shame as the 2780 doesn't have WhatsApp.
It doesn't? I thought on the pics it did. Dam
No, unfortunately only on the model I shared. There are comments about WhatsApp being removed from this model so it gets a lower rating.
Dam, that sucks. Guess they can't do any data mining off a dumb phone so no point in maintain it 🤷♂️
