Suggestions for a new cell phone

My iPhone SE got the horrible update last week. Now, a week later I'm ready to use it for target practice. I've spent the last few days searching online for a new phone that fits the way I live, and I'm having no luck. I don't need a bunch of useless high-tech crap, but I need exactly what I need..........not close enough.

so, here's what I'm looking for in a new smart phone...........Waterproof to at least 10 feet, impact resistant to 20 feet (padded case with screen protector), good camera and of course it needs internet access for email, banking and shopping. Now here's the kicker, UNDER 6 inches. 5 to 5 1/2 inches would be ideal. It has to fit in a shirt pocket.

I've tried flip phones, they're too fragile. I went through 3 in a month. I'm so pissed with Apple I won't get another iPhone. Pixel's are too big, same with Samsung. Any ideas?

I fear you might struggle to find one that fits all your specifications!

Waterproof to >10 feet, though? Impact resistant to >20 feet? Where do you intend using it?

(I tried a smart-phone for a while. Hopeless: bulky, heavy, far too much pointless software, and so difficult to use I missed calls, lost messages and could not reply to others. It also cost far more for the contract than my actual use. Eventually I sold it and bought a basic 'phone on which speech calls are the primary function, on PAYG. My Internet access is all via a PC on a broadband service, as I need such a PC for my purposes anyway.)
