Samtime tries out a Fairphone 6 running Ubuntu Touch and it seemed pretty fine. Noted issues were the second camera not working, GPS/Map app being a bit weird, and imo, the screen showing all the apps you have open is terrible. But with the reg app store and waydroid, I think it could be almost managable to use.

My mom is a battery life fiend though, so that part she won't let go of. What's your thoughts?

I have owned one phone without an audio jack. Never again. Don't shove that trash non logic down anybody else's throat there's no reason not to have a 3.5mm aux. USBC aux cords are the least reliable cables I've ever seen on the market and their adapters are just as shitty. U know what works? Every single time? Aux port.
