Hello all, I'm looking to upgrade from my cheapo 2021 moto g stylus as its struggling to run even basic apps like the camera. I have done some research on phones in my ideal specification range, but depending on which avenue of purchase is cheaper, I'm open to a variety of suggestions.

My baseline specs I'm looking for are:

• Nano-sim card size.
• Android 13 or up.
• 8 gigs of RAM and 256 in storage (or 128 and has an internal SD card slot).
• FHD resolution and an OLED display.
• A battery life that can last at least a full day of heavy use.
• A much nicer camera ideally, I like to take photos of beautiful things I see day to day.

Also:

• A headphone jack would be a lovely bonus but I know those are hard to come by nowadays.
• Ideally the less ai and easier to de-bloat and customize the better.
• Price range is about $500 for both purchasing out of a traditional store/secondhand or for a T-Mobile deal.

If you have or had a phone like this that you loved (and lasted you a good amount of time) I'd really appreciate your feedback! Thank you so much! ^^
