[Question] Being frugal + Smartphone, how do you do it?

I am a weirdo I guess. I am in my 30's and never owned a smartphone. I used my iPod touch for 5 years with an magicjack app, and utilized that. Now it's slowing down, and I realize I need to find something.1) What brand lasts the longest against the planned obsolescence of tech stuff? 2) What apps do you use to utilize WiFi phone? 3) Do you just purchase an unlocked smartphone and use WiFi off it?
