The cat s22 isn't exactly a dumb phone but it is a flip with a numpad and a very small touch screen which makes it much less addictive. You can still hotspot with it and have access to apps when needed. I love mine so far

How long does the battery on something like that last?

I'm thinking of something like that and an iPad mini to tether when I need to actually use a screen, the mini would be too big to just keep in my pocket and pull out so I'll only use it for banking, maps, etc.

i dont use it much and get 2-2.5 days.

I have kept my smartphone and use that for maps (as gps still works) and music (predownloaded) in the car and occasionally around the house, but treat it more like my laptop now.
