Then there's Android One, but that is an absolute disaster at this point, with unoptimized software and updates that brick phones. Google themselves haven't been doing too good on software reliability this year; just look at Android 11, especially on the Pixel 2 and 4a. Both have huge bugs and in the 2's case, they will never be fixed. And some Android 11 bugs won't be fixed until Android 12 comes out.

I'm seriously considering a switch to iOS at this point.

I really like my Android One Nokia 6.1. It was a little rough for the first 6 months with random slowdowns and stuttering after being on for more than a few days (fixed with a reboot) but since then it has been great.

Admittedly it has a rubbish camera but I don't really take pictures so that's fine with me. For a £200 phone it has been just as good for my needs as every flagship nexus/pixel I've owned asside from the crap camera.

It's got to the point that it'll be out of support soon and I'm having a hard time finding a decent replacement for anything near a comparable price.

Maybe it's time to try out LineageOS?

That makes me sad to hear. One of my favorite things about the old Nokia (especially the Lumia series) was that they cared about having good camera hardware. The low end stuff was better than most of the other brands I tried, and if you got something with PureView...

Looking at the latest lineup the cameras are probably better now, they all have the standard array of multiple cameras on the back. Personally I couldn't care less for cameras on phones so a big camera bump is kinda a downside for me!

+1 for nokia 6.1! I really like the continuous stream of updates, unlike on my old phones with samsung flavor of Android
