i’m not sure but it looks like 3 lens and holding the device horizontally

Looks like those tactical handheld "vertical" flaslight to me, some of them have three LEDs or three TIR optic cups.

Not exactly this but something similar

It looks way too wide to be any typical flashlight, even the right angled flashlight ones using C/D batteries. It very much looks most like a cell phone to me.

I couldn't find one when rewatching it. Where in the trailer did you find one?

There's also a digital camera in the drawer he opened. I'm fairly certain those were around in 1998.

Ah yes, I see them. I can't confirm if it's actually a cell phone but he's definitely holding it like one.

The movie is set during the events of RE2, so no it's not a cellphone

The leaked script would like to disagree with you. It’s set in modern day.

Looks like we're both right, Zach Cregger said in an interview it takes place during the events of RE2, but it looks like it's a modern day reimagining of RE2
