Sony Xperia 1 III.

Bought it used a few months ago. It checks all the boxes I want in a phone (notification LED, headphone jack, no notch, expandable memory) so I'm satisfied with it, but it took some tinkering to get it to behave the way I wanted it to. Setting a specific notification color/pattern wasn't supported in settings so I had to use GravityBox to do that, same with swapping the back and recent buttons and a whole assortment of minor things. In particular, the physical Google Assistant button was useless to me and required even more of a workaround, but in the end I managed to make it a flashlight toggle instead.

Previously, I used a OnePlus 6. Loved the phone but its battery was on the way out. Before that was a ZTE Axon 7, which I wasn't overly fond of (only used it for a year and a half and I usually only buy new phones when forced to from battery issues) but bought as a stopgap after my beloved OnePlus 1 grew too dated and ran into battery issues. Before that was my first phone, a Galaxy SIII.
