What smartphones are people using nowadays?
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.

I use a Fairphone 4 running Murena's e/os. The experience has been pretty good so far. I haven't needed to repair the phone yet but it's nice to know I have the option. The os doesn't have any quirks I can't live with. I like their app store, it gives every app a privacy score based on what logging it has and permissions it uses.
I have just bought myself a second hand fairphone 4. Not on eos, I might switch but Google pay contactless is important to me and I don't believe it works on custom ROMs
Can confirm, I just tried to install Google pay and it said I couldn't use it because I was running a custom ROM.
I have a Fairphone 3 and replaced the USB on it and it was amazing. Ordered the part for like €25 and it was here in a couple of days. Swapping the old one out was super easy. Everything should be so easy. ❤️
