If it's just about degoogling then you could look into phones with linux. There is at least Ubuntu Touch that supports a range of popular phones. I don't know about other distros.
I would really like a linux phone but it seems that they are not consumer-ready yet sadly...
Well, android itself is more or less a linux distribution since it's based on linux kernel. The version that ends up on normal phones just isn't FOSS.
So I would definitely count lingeageOS and other FOSS derivatives of android.
