I haven’t used a flip phones since 2007. Is there a model I can look up to see what the UX is like today, if it’s not just Android? From the flip phones of old

From the flip phones of old, the iPhone (first gen) was a massive upgrade in terms of UX, imo. A lot of people avoided smart phones, because they thought they’d be too hard to use, but I think they were actually much easier for the basics. That may be less true today than it once was, as they’ve added a lot of complexity over the last 18 years.

Most functionality can be reached by ~3 button presses, which is from the finger movement equivalent to a single swipe. Also I can type and call without looking. My perspective is that there aren't really any new apps, just new companies in place of the old apps, so that my phone doesn't really have less features besides performance due to Moore's law.
