My N97 has compass, GPS and FM radio. Plus local maps.

It doesn't have a torch as such, but it does have LED flash for its camera and I have an app which turns that into a torch. (This is really a backup to my backup because I also carry 2 proper torches. Also, the basic screen backlight is often enough light to navigate out of a building. The darker it is, the less light you need.)

I imagine that GMRS radio and similar walkie-talkie stuff would be resisted by the networks, because it would reduce their call revenue.

TV might be nice in an emergency, although I hope the FM radio will provide the essential information. During normal times, I can watch TV on the phone over the internet (via WiFi). It comes with dedicated iPlayer apps to make this easy.

It's not a cheap phone, but then I love my gadgets.
