If you were forced to step back and rank the features on your phone you found most important, ones you couldn't live without, not mere conveniences, you would find it's only a few main things. Securing those things can be achieved with simple, free, auditable, reproduceable, off the shelf tools, they just lack the conveniences that we get from the corporate apps with masses of random developer add-ons.

I am currently looking for a real for really real dumb phone that can do VoWifi basically SIP over ipsec because my LTE coverage is awful. I do not consider anything related to wireless to be secure as it is closed source and the carriers care not about their customers. source: I worked for one and helped build out their network They can't even kick China back out of the FBI lawful intercept API's, even to this day.
