I used the light phone for a while, it was great, but then I needed e-mail for work. So I’ve opted for an IPhone SE now…

My requirements for a minimal phone were touch sreeen and QWERTY keyboard. Which put the light phone up front. My spouse still uses theirs.

My pinnacle minimal phone would be a little larger light phone (think original iPhone size) that also had an e-mail app.

Thanks for your comment. Was the eink screen refresh lag a trouble on daily use?

It was definitely noticeable when coming from a smart phone, but it didn’t really get in the way. And after using it for a little bit you get used to it.
