My old phone was practically a rock, but it turns out running it through the wash will still kill it. So I'm looking to finally enter the modern age and get some sort of smartphone.

Country/Provider: California/ Verizon
Current contract status: Family Plan, upgrade available
Budget (phone/plan): Looking to pay 0-200$ for the phone itself after subsidy, don't know what data is available or needed since I am new to this, but probably don't want to pay more than $40/month more than I already am.
Features I know I want:
I'm not great with touchscreen keyboards, so a phone with a QWERTY keyboard would be cool, unless there is a phone with a really good touchscreen someone can recommend for someone who has sausage fingers. Long battery life would also be a key feature. I'll be using it mostly for maps/gps and web browsing.

Hey thread, I'm looking for a replacement phone since my galaxy S9+ is getting bunch of weird errors and slowing down. I'm looking at the S20, Galaxy Note 10+, and OnePlus 8 Pro. Wondering if there's some consensus on what the best options are. My priorities are long battery life, durability, and processing. Camera and display are not super high priorities for me. There's a distant thought that maybe I should try out the iPhone 11. With verizon if that matters and budget 900$ +/- 200
