I have an fairly underpowered phone (Samsung Galaxy M01 Core). I got it mostly because it's the size that I like.

I also use most sites in browser as opposed to app.

It turns out a lot of these sites and services are a lot less addictive when they're slow and the animations are lagging out, and I don't get sucked in any more.

Also ends up increasing battery life due to lack of use.

I also have access to the main apps that I do need - whatsapp, gpay, maps etc.

Highly recommend.
