It's hard to even find a good feature phone these days.

At least I'm looking for one now because my Nokia E5-03 died yesterday so now I have to figure out what to get.

I want something small, that I can stick in my pocket and not worry about the screen, with days of standby battery life, and where I don't have to read and "agree" to pages of legalese.

In the heyday of feature phones, I could pick one up for $20. Nowadays, those phones are designed for old people, and are more expensive than a cheap smart phone.

I heard KaiOS phones are good, including the "Bananaphone" (aka Nokia 8110 4G) that can be had for very reasonable amounts.

I just ordered a Cat B40 - https://www.catphones.com/en-gb/cat-b40/ . It uses KaiOS. :)

Frustratingly, it doesn't seem to have predictive text/auto-correct. :(
