With those specs I'd say go with a used samsung high end from 201x, I'm thinking S4 but there might be better options, around that time period in general. You won't find usb C ports on them though.

I think finding a phone that check all you boxes will be near impossibile

It probably won't last as long or will be very slow. I don't want to pay additional money for a charger. I don't want custom or modified systems because of possible spyware.

I don't fully agree with you but I understand, sadly I think you'll have to compromise something since you're looking for something that is low-tech and high quality, with very specific specs. Let me know what you'll end up with, I'm actually curious about it
