I'm still using a Samsung S10e and its starting to show signs of wear, but I honestly don't like any of the replacements I've seen that are under $1000 and I don't want to spend that much on a phone. And unfortunately it looks hard to find older versions too.
I tried looking into old version of the Asus ROG or Red Magic phones that still performed better than my S10e but even those were still so pricy.
S10e is great. It's what I've been using as well, but it doesn't get security updates anymore. Been using a custom rom which does get Android security updates, but there was a pretty serious SoC level security vulnerability which won't get fixed for the S10e.
I'll get a Pixel 8a instead. No headphone jack, slightly larger, only 1 physical sim. But can run GrapheneOS and have a long promised update period.
Yeah, that's the part I'm worried about. I have the US snapdragon S10e, which cannot be modded to extend it's lifespan. Which is a mistake I hope to fix with my next phone.
I'm still running an s10e as well, God I love this phone. It might be the best phone ever made, I'm not joking. I'm on my third battery and second back glass but otherwise it feels like new.
I did a little test with my dad, who has an iPhone from last year, where we would see how long a bunch of different apps would take to load. For all of them, my phone was within a second of load time (one or two was even faster). It hasn't slowed down at all and it works flawlessly. Only problem now is it doesn't get security updates anymore:(
