I usually buy used or inexpensive devices and I haven't seen many (any?) cheap tablets or cell phones that use USB-C. I think the first USB-C (HTC One) came out in December, 2014, so the technology is almost five years old and still not taking over the world. I think the Blackberry Storm was the first microUSB phone and it's almost exactly ten years old... so isn't it time for something more advanced than the USB-C? — (if these run on five year cycles).
You may find it very difficult to find a decent flip phone. I had a look at Sprint in June for flip phones and there was a very poor selection. I don't see the selection getting any better. Also, it may cost more to get service without data.
