I really like the idea of ditching my smartphone for a dumbphone, but giving up Google Maps would be rough. Knowing the fastest way to get from point A to point B (including public transportation!) is genuinely really useful.

The Light Phone 2 comes to mind: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/light-phone-2 https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/light-phone-2. It's not available yet, and I've heard some complaints that it has too many features. But, it aims to be a middle ground between a smart phone and a completely dumb phone.
