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.

    Still holding onto my Samsung Galaxy Note9

    It has an excellent built-in stylus with a headphone jack and expandable storage to boot. Nothing that’s come out since feels like an upgrade, only various sidegrades.

      The Note 9 was the perfect phone. Hold onto it for as long as it will run! I got a Pixel 7 Pro after mine died. It was a real downgrade. Got the s24 Ultra this year, and it’s actually quite nice. Probably the closest thing to the Note 9 these days.
