I am looking for advice, on a thought I had. I wanted to combine a fairly simple phone (preferably non gogole) with a tablet for my daily use. I am ok with the tablet running Android, as I more or less am required to have it (or apple), for safe log in, in my country
The idea is, to not spend all the time death scrolling on the phone, and only bring up the tablet up when I need to use features that are not available on the phone. What I still was hopping for, was a phone with basic functions, like calling, SMS, mail and calendar. Also it should have a good camera, and some sort of privacy orientated navigation app. It should also have hotspot, so that I can connect the tablet to the internet through it. I wouldn’t mind an e-ink display, but I am not sure how that works with a camera or if they even do come with quality cameras.
Do you think that you get more value for the money with a tablet, than a phone? Should I spend the equivalent to a flagship phone on a tablet, or would i be getting more value, by simply buying a phone, and dropping my plan on having a semi-dumb phone?

No non-standard device will have a good camera.
There are those small android devices. Word is that those discourage constant attention because it’s not as pleasant to use. But you can still get basic stuff when you need it.
If you went with something like that or e-ink you’d probably want to get a decent pocketable point and shoot.
