• UK based
• Looking at refurbishments
• £400 with room for creep (Edit for clarification, £400 max ideally)
• Min 128GB storage, though might consider paying more for 256GB
• Good quality camera (relative to the pixel 6) though it doesn't have to be the best
• Strong battery life
• Suited for playing youtube in the background/streaming music for long periods
• No bloatware
• Would like to avoid heavily pushed A.I features if possible

Right now my gut feeling says a Pixel 8 refurb, but I'm not sure if that's just the panic speaking and desire to stick with what's familiar. I do really value a solid camera, but I've also become aware of how much battery I actually do use day to day. At the same time everything above is relative to the Pixel 6 after some years of use, so I'm hoping my standards aren't so high compared to what's become available by now.
