I guess from the description that it does have some internet capabilities, but I would assume they can be disabled. Another option if you're just trying to get away from Google/Apple would be an Android phone with Lineage OS and no Google services. You loose access to the usual Play store apps, but still have a lot more capabilities than a flip phone. https://www.lineageos.org/ https://www.lineageos.org/

You don't really lose access to the Play Store, you can access it indirectly using the free Aurora app instead. There is also microG, a free reimplementation of Google Play Services, which would allow you to even use apps that depend on that (for instance, for push notifications). Of course what I actually recommend is doing neither of those and only using apps from F-Droid instead. But it is an option.
