I’m not sure…maybe a 1 year old (cheaper) iPhone pro.

If it has to be android. Some AOSP small phone. But I’d probably try Apple first.

I’m planning on going with the Pixel 8 next (considering the size is closer to the 5), but if the battery life of the Pixel 8 is not at least 20%-25% better than the Pixel 5 (Pixel 5 on first month was giving me like 3 days standby with 6-7 hours of Reddit which was good for me), then I think I’ll return it in 15 days and move on.

I think the new Nothing Phone looks pretty good

I’m probably the most unloyal customer here. I bought the phone *for the OS*, not the opposite.

So probably anything that GrapheneOS supports

It’s a weird request but I’ll probably jump from a pixel 7 pro to any phone that supports usb-c video output in the future. I’ll stick with my 7 pro for another year or two and then hop probably to Samsung… but I’m open to other options. I’m hopeful the nothing phone 2 will have USB-C 3.1 and support video out.

I want to be able to watch things on my train commute without having to hold my phone up to my face in the middle of a packed train. It’s a niche use case but it’s a major selling point for me.

I’d probably prefer a Sony device of some sort but they aren’t well priced, so Motorola I guess. I had a Motorola X4 before I got into Pixels, and while I didn’t like it being slippery glass, the software was nice and not bloated. It was part of the Android One program, which might not exist anymore.
