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.

      100% agree, my favorite phone I’ve had was the BlackBerry Priv, the form factor was perfect for me. I had a KeyOne but a lot of apps didn’t play well with the weird resolution screen.

      I couldn’t find another phone with a physical keyboard and a full sized screen so I’m now on a OnePlus 10 Pro but if there was another phone released with a physical sliding keyboard I’d be on top it immediately.
