Get a smart phone. You'll be glad you did. Even if you're a boomer who mostly uses his phone as a phone, like me. Texting, camera, access to internet, email, banking, weather, alarm clock, is all handy.
Look at the iPhone SE2020 or SE2022. Small enough to carry in a pocket. Works great for what I do. Cheap, relatively speaking.
If the results don't match the theory, change the theory.
