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 probably phrased it wrong. There only 3 devices that can run mainline kernel and have fully functioning hardware. Yes, you can run mainline Linux on OnePlus 6 without camera and USB-OTG. I also think that there are some other minor issues. But on UBT camera in OnePlus 6 will work through Halium: https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/enchilada
