I am currently using a Pixel 4a, which in my opinion is the latest useable Pixel.

Since we are basically doing market research, here is my take ;)

It is kind of sorted by relevance as it is in the order in which it came to my mind.

Here is what I need from a new phone:

  - height between 145mm and 150mm
  - width between 70mm and 75mm
  - thickness up to 15mm, I honestly don't care
  - storage atleast 128GB, expandable if possible
  - 3.5mm heaphone jack
  - USB-C 3 (at least 5Gbps)
  - fingerprint (in-display, or front bezel, back is also acceptable)
  - stock Android
  - hardware security features of the Pixel Line (Secure Element, Hardware attestation, everything that would make the GrapheneOS people want that phone)
  - "enough" RAM, maybe 6-8GB
  - recent SOC but *not* a power hungry flagship, I want the efficiency king
  - battery for two days of messengers and phone calls (no games, no social media crap)
  - no glas where it doesn't need to be
  - current wifi and bluetooth

This is what is nice to have:

  - small top bezel for camera, ear piece, sensors
  - small bottom bezel to better reach the on display controls
  - fingerprint resistent, non slippery and light casing (maybe aluminium frame with tpu around)
  - easy to replace battery (doesn't need to be hot swappable, but no glue, not burried under the mainboard or next to *flimsy* ribbon cables)
  - IPXX rating
  - camera on Pixel 5 level
