I'm looking for an absolutely basic dirt cheap Android 9 phone that can easily be purchased in the EU (I've been stung with import duty and problems with things containing batteries before when ordering from overseas).

Can be new or used.

I'm going to be building it into a custom bedside media system and as a voice hub for home automation. So it only needs the most basic features. Camera and speakers don't matter. Battery doesn't matter as it will be mains powered.

Screen isn't really important as it's mostly going to be voice based. The screen will only show basic information like a clock.

I only really need it to be Android 9 for comparability reasons.

Is there a large chain store that sells phones (like Cellphone Warehouse in GB)? Or maybe a repair shop that has a phone on Android 9 with a bad battery, or a bad SIM port?

We do have Carphone Warehouse in the UK. But you must buy a top-up with any pay as you go phone purchase.

What sort of price do you wish to pay for this phone OP?
