Mobile phone with long battery life

Anyone recommend a basic mobile phone with long battery life? I've googled but wouldn't mind personal recommendations.

Someone i know is going into hospital for major surgery so will be in over Christmas and New Year. She's concerned that she won't have the ability to charge her existing iPhone, even though I tried to reassure her.

Just looking for a phone where the battery won't run down too quickly, even if not used much. Doesn't need to be fancy, as long as she can make calls.

Thanks

You can buy a basic nokia on a pay as you go for about £20 from carphone warehouse. The battery should last a good few days especially with little use.

Something like a basic Nokia or a poco phone. What about getting a super good portable battery pack?

I have had a ton of operations. Even in intensive care they were helpful to charge/ get access to phones. I also carried a portable battery pack as well from Amazon/ tesco.

Thanks all. I looked at several phones but of course you have to rely in the manufacturer's blurb being accurate.

I have a good battery pack she can use and will reassure her she'll be fine.

Thanks, again.
