Hello, I am looking for the optimum phone to install Ubuntutouch on, and I particularly want optimum battery life and, of course, a great camera. Which phone would you recommend I am looking at Xiaomi Poco x3 or M3 otherwise they are big for me. I currently have a Pixel 6 and Grapheneos but I would like a Linux UT in the past I also had Xperia 10 and Sailfish os. What would you recommend for everyday use with a good camera?

I own OP6, on Ubuntu Touch it has an annoying bug with shutdown (see my other reply here).
On mobile Linux, though, it's quite close: camera is missing, GPS is a bit finicky about SIM card you use, I did not seriously test battery life yet. I plan to give it a proper try to daily drive it soon.
