Featurephone with a touch screen.

Hey folks

 

As per title, looking for a phone for my mum, historically she has always had peoples hand-me-downs, she likes flip phones, recently she has been lumped with family members ancient iPhones. I bought her one of the new release Nokia 3310s when they first came out, but she said she just couldn't get used to number pad texting again, but other than that the phone was perfect for her. Just wondering if anyone knows of anything decent on the market with feature phone simplicity, but a touch screen for the keyboard. She doesn't use apps, she doesn't have a 3G connection, nor does she even bother connecting her iPhones to wifi. I have toyed with picking her up a Nokia 1 or other Android Go based phone, but to be honest, would rather aim for something even simpler than that if available as she really doesn't use any apps.

 

Any suggestions welcome

Get a cheap android go / android one device and have a granny launchers.

Those are themes with big button that you can customize.

A samsung Rex I guess ? I don't see any problem with her needs. This will satisfy it. But there are few downsides, it's not even 3G. Works on java. Let me just research a bit. I need to dig out my Rex 90.
