At least for the next few years, I am pretty firm on needing a jack on my device.

I am currently using an LG v60, and while nice, it's starting to show its age.

Any suggestions on where to go next?

I was looking at the ROG phone, and while it does seem very nice, I feel like it is a bit much as I don't game on my device at all.

Are there any good phones I should be looking at?

Thanks!

Sony Xperia phones?

Not sure if you can still get a Samsung A52s. That'd be a nice pick if you still can get it. It's what I use and it's one of the few with the trifecta of features I was looking for: 3.5mm jack, memory card slot, and OIS in the main camera.

I'm using Xperia 5 IV and other than the price and lack of auto camera, I really like it. The software update is quite fine I suppose - I get the 1st of month update at the end of the month (compared to 5th of month at the middle of the month on Pixel). At worse the updates are 3 months late after major version upgrade. The lack of commitment get me a bit worried, but this is my first Sony phone after using Google phones since Nexus One so I'll wait to see its EOL first. It also severely overheats in a Devilcase, while taking video I found the app shut down abruptly and in normal usage it does get hot too.
