I have one of those - “builder phones” as some call them - for outdoor activities.

Cheap, fucking indestructible, and you could probably bludgeon someone to death with it in a pinch.

It also has a thermal imaging camera which is surprisingly handy for stuff like “finding where in the garden my cat is hiding at night” or “figuring out what’s overheating” or monitoring the state of my compost bin.
