Probably done before but can the knowledgeable suggest something
suitable for the following spec:-

Modest price

Define... I'm quite pleased with my Nokia 6.1 that costs around £150.

Navigation

The app you use is up to you but I guess this means it must have GPS.

Robust

The Nokia 6.1's body is machined from a solid lump of aluminium.

good battery life

The 6.1 will do several days on standby in a good signal area. At
home, poor signal, a couple of days.

mail

The app you use is up to you.

Preferably something that can withstand being dropped.

As has been said a case ups the abilty of a phone surviving being
dropped and also decreases the chances of it being dropped in the
first place. I find naked phones to be slippery little blighters.

The Nokia 6.1 is also an Android One device so doesn't come with a
load of bloatware.
