If you're thinking about giving a phone as a gift for a young person (elementary or middle school), consider the Light Phone II. It was fantastic for us. Gave the kiddo access to us and friends, but didn't have any of the attention grabbing nonsense of a "real" phone. Plus, many carriers let you register it as a smartwatch, which is cheaper than a full plan!
