You need what's called a senior phone or old person phone, which is a huge market in China, but somewhat limited in the US. Huge keypad, small black and white screen, long battery life, and few features.
I have seen two of these in Germany and was disappointed. They have all the obvious things - bigger keys, bigger numbers on the display - but none of the perfection that is expected from a mainstream smartphone these days.
Suing Samsung was Jobs' legacy. He was planning to do it himself if he lived long enough. He was incredibly petty, especially for an intellectual property thief.
I don't know what Apple stole/didn't steal. But do you remember what the number 1 selling phone was before the iPhone? According to Wikipedia it was a Nokia 1200. I had a Motorola Razr.
Jobs and Apple were a decade ahead of their competition.
