      After my Nexus 5X died (twice) I had an OK run with my current BQ Aquaris X2 Pro, but... unfortunately, it seems BQ's hardware quality issues are as ever-present as always. I've spent most of this year with a dodgy touchscreen. Time for a new phone.pic.twitter.com/CXeIE8gOVX

      It's honestly kind of sad just how common build quality issues seem to be with smartphones these days. The 5X died with that thing where using the big cores crashes the phone (soldering issue?). The X2 Pro touchscreen glitches (in-screen controller connection failure).

      Also my X2 Pro's NFC died when I took it apart for unknown reasons (antenna is fine?). And its battery is unobtainium now, especially from Japan. Not worth swapping screen, battery (if I can get it at all, $$$ to reship), and whatever broke NFC. Will the Pixel 4a 5G fare better?

      At least I hope official LineageOS comes soon (there's an unofficial one already).

      But really, I used to swap phones because they got *old*, not because they *died* (other than batteries). My Nexus S still works fine. There's still a Galaxy Nexus kicking around my parents' house. Tablets too, my Nexus 10 is slow but still *works* after two battery swaps.

      For anyone wondering, my main criteria for a smartphone are: - Unlockable bootloader - LineageOS (or good chances thereof) - 3.5mm jack - No hideous notch (I've resigned myself to accepting a hole-punch camera) - Type C 3A charging or PD - Overall decent specs (midrange)

          If you add front facing stereo speakers and 1440p oled to this, you gave zero options. Zero. Phones are all shit. Nobody makes a good one. There are overpriced gimmick phones and cheap trash with nothing in between.

          I had great experiences with Sony phones. I dropped my current Xperia 10ii at least a dozen times and there's barely a scratch on it let alone broken functionality. The 10 (not 10ii) has a Lineage OS version too

          Only disadvantage would be that the camera quality suffers a bit when unlocking the bootloader, at least that was the case when I looked into it a while ago.

          Just dont go with snapdragon. Exynos is the only way for unlocked bootloader lineage 17 now is out for s20 and s10+, i would go for oneplus phone for phone jack and really good spec and usb-c charging. I have s20 and the whole punch camera sucks. S21 is out in jan.

          Except for the BQ we've had the same phones and I too am thinking of switching to a Nexus 4a because my MI A2 performance has downgraded (and their latest patch wiped my phone) Only the battery is holding me back. That and that I'm mad at the whole two year upgrade cycle.

          An Asus Zenfone 6 could be an option with these requirements. Bootloader can be unlocked with an app from Asus. They gave free Zenfones to custom rom developers, hence there was quite early a working LOS. But it is also really close to ASOP.

          I got a Redmi K30 Pro / Pocophone F2. It meets all of those requirements, and is cheap + huge battery. Runs LineageOS:https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-unofficial-lineageos-17-1-for-poco-f2-pro-redmi-k30-pro-lmi.4173763/ …

          I was using a Nexus 4 for 6 years until touchscreen started to fail. Then I replaced it with a Mi A2 (currently with LineageOS for MicroG) and after 2 years it works like the first day. Unfortunately no 3.5 jack and charge is limited to 2A, so it does not meet your requirements.
