Do you want it to do something besides calls? I've got 2 phones that have lasted 10+ years: Nokia 1100 and Nokia 5110 (the 5125 variant).

I actually had to stop using the 5110 because the technology wasn't supported anymore (the frequencies were re-purposed for something else), and that's probably what will happen to your 10+ year phone.

You can still purchase a Nokia 1100. It's the world's best-selling handset because you can do all you mentioned.

I still have both in a drawer, and they boot when charged.
