Here's an idea for a "distraction free" phone:
Any android phone.
In a work profile use a primary launcher app that only shows 3 or 4 important apps. Disable everything else.
Lock all the rest in the normal profile with a password that is a randomized 32 or longer character string that you can't possibly memorize.
Write it down in glaze on a plate, which you smash and store in a bag with some super glue.
Me, staring at password puzzle: ...i'll just hotspot my laptop this one time...
Narrator: It wasn't one time.
