If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

I just picked up a Sony Xperia 1 V, and so far I'm happy with it. It's snappy as can be, and the camera is absolutely fantastic.
I recommend getting the ones popular in India for great 3rd party support (: Snapdragon Xiaomis are a safe bet if you're on a budget
It used to be.... Recently xaoimi started to delay publishing kernel source. Thus some new phones are not officially supported by lineage. Or the cuatom rom experiemce is not as good as it used to be .They started going the route of BBK.

If you like your phone, and want continued support... flash LineageOS. You can keep all your google stuff if you want to with it. OnePlus is one of the easier phones to do this with.

Im using an LG Velvet 5G. Great specs including 5G, wifi 6, sd card, and headphone jack. I know LG has discontinued making phones but it is still getting updates. Hopefully custom ROMs fill in once that expires.
Nice thing is, you can find these phones for sub $300 if you hunt around.
If you want Pixel features, flash a custom ROM based on PE.
What support do you need? Sounds like it does everything you want it to do. I dont know about that one, but for a lot of devices, "updates" are often just loading in new advertising features.
What? What about security updates?

I bought the Xiaomi 13t and I am satisfied so far. Not a huge Xiaomi fan but this is my second one. Also people dislike the MIUI but you can change it back to the usual android interface... The only thing I don't really like is the reversed bottom menu buttons. Haven't figured out if you can change it
Bought it for 620€ with a tablet included. Definitely not worth it if you only want the phone, but I also wanted a new tablet so this was a good choice.
I really wanted the Google pixel, but 128GB was just not enough for me and it was also more expensive for only a phone

Depends on your use cases and budget
I see alot of people are recommending the fairphone and I wouldn't mind getting one myself but they lack support for alot of major features do not have good price to performance whatsoever and have generally lackluster support when it comes to replacement parts ive seen people waiting absolutely ages for just a replacement usb c port on there fp4 just buy whatever will best meet all your usecases within your budget
Bought a used pixel 7 and I'm very happy with it.
