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.

    Galaxy Fold 3, incredible phone, Dex is fantastic, brilliant for viewing things on larger screens so it’s much easier to view.

    Battery life is atrocious though, I charge it 3 times a day

      I have a Flip 5! Got it for the form factor and it just looks cool lol. I enjoy it.

      I have a Galaxy Fold 2 and it’s pretty sweet. Mine doesn’t have the battery issues you mentioned for your 3, though. I guess if I’m watching videos for a few hours, THEN I definitely need to charge it, but otherwise a single charge lasts all day.
