Moto G stylus 5g. I have never once used the stylus.
It's more than adequate for web browsing, listening to music, tracking runs, watching videos. Normal phone stuff. It does have too much latency for many music production apps, but sequencer based workflows work well. Termux works fine and I also use my phone to SSH into servers. Voice control is pretty standard "ok google" which means I can respond to a text or change music or navigation without taking my eyes off the road or hands off the wheel.
I used Moto phones for years and they were always in the sweet spot of value to price. They run stock android (or pretty close) and do what I need them to. At one point I "upgraded" myself to a Pixel 4, which turned out to be a poor choice. It didn't last 2 years before dying, I believe due to poor heat management. The screen just went black one day and I was told by multiple repair people it was unfixable.
Now I'm back to Moto and it's fine. I just don't want my phone to be the center of my workflow for most things. It doesn't meet my ideal phone requirements, but pretty much none of them do. Really what I dream of is a small phone with a small screen (or no screen) that can still take good pictures. Basically I dream of a flip phone with an amazing camera.
