I really wish one day they can reach framework level of industrial design. For a framework laptop, I would imagine it can last at least 5-8 years, all with great performance and upgradablity.
Phone on the other hand it very different. It is hard to upgrade SOC (which i believe is a OS limitation?). Although they have 5(probably 7 based on their record) years of system update, I really dont expect the phone to be usable after maybe 4 years.
At this point, I would probably go for a pixel with graphene and a case and screen protector. I really don't expect my phone to break that many times during 5 years, if it does, i will just grub thepart from ifixit and spend a afternoon to fix it. And grapheneos will provide 5 years of OS update with speedy security patch.

As long as it’s fast and the battery lasts the whole day, I’m happy

You lucky little devils. Really happy with mine so far.

Still a snapdragon 750. I don’t mind paying a premium for this phone, but I definitely don’t want a hardware downgrade

As long as it has a headphone jack...

I hope it's better than the fairphone 3. Poor performance on that completely undermines the whole "last phone you'll ever need".

I'm conflicted because it doesn't have a headphone jack
