I'm looking for a phone to make a dedicated GPS for survival/backpacking. Does anyone have an idea on what the best battery life phone with an accurate GPS would be. It wouldn't be used for a phone, only GPS, maps, and for storing some relevant ebooks. I'm trying to keep it under like $300 so I'm looking for something a bit older.

I'm not sure on the technology or what gives a phone good battery life or GPS accuracy but I'm hoping some nerd here knows. Thanks.
