Dumbphone finder Need real dumbphone phone recommendations

Howdy folks,

I've tried looking online but really can't find good info. I also looked through the links from the auto mod, but without finding what I want. Here's what I need

-Talk and text. Querty would be nice, but by no means a dealbreaker. (I miss blackberry style phones)

-No internet connectivity whatsoever (Maybe this doesn't exist, but if it does I want it.)

-Lasts more than a year without buttons glitching out.

-Ideally cheap (Used is ok, but I'd like it under $100)

I use a lively flip phone. just talk and text along with a so-so camera. does connect to Amazon Alexa. cost of phone at best buy is $75 but is often on sale 50% off. monthly bill for unlimited talk and text is approximately $28 per month. I have been using mine for almost 4 years with no issues with either the service or phone. you can also call customer support to get a lyft ride and the cost is added to the monthly bill.

Is it unlocked? I currently pay $8/month for talk and text with US Mobile.
