I usually use a cheap Chinese phone around 100 bucks and swap it every 1-2 years.

Regular Galaxy S22 256Gb
Was choosing between S22, Pixels, and Nothing Phone. Ultimately, I went with the former because I happened to accumulate Tab S8 as well as Galaxy Buds 2. If not for those, probably would've saved a buck with first Nothing.
Pros: Easy cloud sync, good processor, nice materials, could be found for a very affordable price, and rest of the features that come with premium phones
Cons: No headphone jack, no SD card slot, some bloat you can't remove, battery
Would've probably still rocked my Poco F1 if it didn't get obliterated by a 0.5m drop onto a quartz floor. It never fully recovered from it.
iphone. They're solid and they get updates forever so there is no rush to upgrade. I don't miss Android and not getting updates 6 months after I buy the phone.

Pixel 5, it's fine. Used to unlock bootloader/flash a custom os but less hobbyist lately with the phone, next one I get is definitely going to have a headphone jack though.
Xiaomi 13: great for pictures, shitty OS
OnePlus 8T with LineageOS 21 on it. Thing's already a version of Android past official support, and it works great. Zero complaints, I don't see myself upgrading anytime soon. I expect to see at least another 2 years on that phone, maybe longer. Averaging 25% memory utilization, so it's got room for Android's enshittification for quite a while still.

Pixel 8 Pro/CalyxOS. Originally considered PinePhone/FairPhone, but mobile Linux just doesn't cut it for me quite yet. Originally considered installing GrapheneOS, but learned that the developer is yikes.
There are a handful of issues, but it's working pretty well overall. I don't miss iOS, except for Spotlight.

pixel 7a, calyx
Moto edge + 5g
Liking my pixel 4a but still using stock :(. Should get round to installing graphene os
Original iPhone SE. still receiving security updates, and the perfect size for my hand. I hate the trend towards phablets.
Pixel 6 pro on graphene os and an iPhone 13 pro max
Smasnug A40. It can run a browser, SSH, and play music. It has USB-C and a headphone jack.
I dread the day I have to replace it.
