To get a solid browser with a decent experience though you're going to pretty much need most of a smart phone's performance anyways and most of the power drain because you'll probably want a good screen and decent performance on the browser so a good processor too. Dumb phones lasted so long because they had really low power processors and beyond texting and calls there was no reason to constantly interact with them so they could be in a really low power state 90% of the time.
