My phone’s just bitten the dust and now I need to look for a new one again.

Thought I’d test the waters and see what kinds of phones people on here are using nowadays and what for, what features set them apart if any etc

Bonus points if anyone’s managed to get mainline linux running on them either via KVM or bare metal

Edit: Thanks for everyone who talked about their choices of phone, I am now writing this on a fairphone 4 and am quite happy with it so far.

    Anything Pixel specific? No. However, stuff like Android Auto isn’t here. The Pixel features are either too gimmicky for me to care about, have suitable alternatives, or just still work.

        The default camera app on CalyxOS is quite limited. You can still download any apps from Google Play through the Aurora Store, Pixel Camera included. You won’t get your AI object removal, but, eh.
