4G Dumb Phones
Now that the 3G is phased out, I need a new "dumb phone" that runs on AT&Ts 4G network. All I want to do is make calls and text. I do not want a smart phone. Any suggestions?

Thank you for mentioning the other list. I found it:
https://www.att.com/idpassets/images/support/pdf/Devices-Working-on-ATT-Network.pdf
That will keep me busy for a while; it has lots of phones - both smart and dumb. It even has an old AT&T smartphone (for some definition of "smart"), still available on Amazon, that is less expensive than the Cingular Flip IV.

Att still sells bar and flip phones.

I just discovered that the Cingular Flip IV - the only dumb phone that AT&T still offers, as far as I know - does not support tethering. My old Cingular Flip 2 died today and I replaced it with the Cingular Flip IV, assuming I would get everything I had before (and maybe some more). Instead, I got less.
So now I've got the same question as the OP. What dumb phones (other than the Cingular Flip IV) work with AT&T?

The link in my previous post leads to 4 basic phones.
It indicates it has tethering... But I can't see where or how...

That's the Cingular Flip 2. I had one of those until this morning when I ran over it with my car. :( Based on the AT&T web site I found (https://www.att.com/buy/phones/)
it's no longer available.

The link is bad. Use the one I posted a month ago.
AT&T doesn't sell the Cingular 2 anymore. If the 4 doesn't have tethering, then get a different phone. The Kyocera DuraXE Epic will last a lot longer

Why do you say the link is bad? It's a link to an official AT&T web site. It contains (I assume) all the phones available through AT&T including those on the page you linked.
Good heavens! At $270 it's edging into the low-end smartphone range. Why spend that kind of money for a dumbphone?
What about dumbphones not available from AT&T? What needs to be checked other than being unlocked, accepting the AT&T SIM card, and supporting the bands used by AT&T?

It would need to be on ATT’s list of supported phones. There are actually two lists, one specifically for unlocked phones. Sorry, I don’t have the link, perhaps someone else will post it or you can google it.

Just know you get what you pay for, and Amazon ads are often wrong
