mention fingerprint reader as a plus
Mar 27, 2018 at 15:59 comment added user1691 @Gilles Thanks for the explanation. Sorry for sounding condescending, its a good question but too many always come off as "here's what I want, you do the work" and I like to see what the asker has discovered on their own because it can help sift out an answer that isn't wanted.
Mar 27, 2018 at 14:41 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @SiXandSeven8ths Must be a generation gap. I guess basic phones are disappearing. I've added an explanation. Regarding research, well, I've looked at phone comparison sites which give me thousands of models and no useful them to filter them. I've also given some idea of what I know won't work. “This reads like a list of what you want” — well, yes, that's the point of this site after all. Please take a minute to read the question quality guidelines.

explain "basic phone"
Mar 27, 2018 at 13:28 comment added user1691 I don't understand what you mean by basic phone. And what research have you done on this? This reads like a list of what you want but don't want to do any of the work yourself.

Mar 26, 2018 at 22:02 comment added Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' @William Uh? I don't understand your comment at all. I'm asking for something that is stock Android or close. What are you calling a “normal phone”? A basic phone (is that what you call a “flip phone”?) is too small. I've never seen Android phones that small.
Mar 26, 2018 at 21:42 comment added William Could you please state what is wrong with stock Android. There are plenty of stock Android phones. In terms of updates nothing really official by the OEM updates 2+ years except Google & Samsung. I'm sure there are exceptions. Removable batteries have gone the way of the dodo and don't exist in typically. Also you said a normal phone is to small. Hmm you mean flip phone? My carrier no longer sells these in stories but that is my assumption.
