I recently replaced my smartphone with a more basic Nokia model - not totally basic (it has stripped down versions of some common apps - whatsapp and the like) in an attempt to put some barriers between me and the internet and encourage me to read novels and whatnot - it seems to be working pretty well, but in the decade or so since I last had a Nokia they seem to have gone to shit and the phone is horrible - it looks like something from 1995, it turns off randomly and the battery runs out after a day. So I'm going to send it back, but I want to continue with having a more basic phone.
Looking around, most of the things on the market seem to be aimed at old people, drug dealers or children, and are often brands of dubious provenance which I've never heard of - does anyone have any recommendations? Necessary spec are:
Cost isn't particularly important, happy to pay more for one that's decent - I'm planning on it being my main phone for the forseeable
Cheers!

- no touchscreen, limited apps
- has whatsapp
- looks nice
- decent build quality / reliable
