Here's what I want, roughly in order of priority:
I currently have a Pixel 8:
A community-supported Linux phone would be awesome, since I'd get 1 and 3 by default and 2 by convention, but they don't meet my minimum needs from a phone: reliable basic feature support. Hopefully we get there by the time my Pixel dies.
My main complaint is that they don't directly support the US. There's a reseller here, but I think there are issues with some bands.
Maybe it'll be better the next time I need a phone.
I'd be fine with /e/OS I think, GrapheneOS is nice, but not a hard requirement for me.
The Fairphone is interesting, but it is also enormous unfortunately
And notably the pixel 8 is significantly smaller than the 7
