Without a headphone jack, not sure if I'll be staying with the Pixel series.

But the A series still has a better camera than other budget phones, right?

The camera should be better. But, what midrange smartphones still provide a headphone Jack? I have all but seen it disappear alongside fading sdcard support.

Samsung midrangers like the A15 / M15 / A25 etc have both the jack as well as an sdcard slot. There's also the Motorola G34 and the G84. And finally, there's also a flagship - the ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro. And a whole bunch of Chinese phones which I won't bother mentioning.

By midrange I meant Something more like A35/A55/M55, etc. So upper midrange hardware. Moto doesn't include a jack or even expandable storage on edge 40 Neo, edge 40, edge 50 pro.

As for Chinese phones the most prominent even Xiaomi has stopped including them in some of their phones. Not that I want to buy them. My software experience has not been great with Chinese OEMs.

So, if I want good software(Oneui, NothingOS, Moto HelloUI, etc) support and quality my choices are slim to zero.

I have made my peace with wireless unfortunately I don't want to do the same with micro sdcard. But, even that's fading in so many phones...

I feel you, I've been looking for something to replace my s10+. I want wireless charging, headphone jack, sd card.its really hard to find all 3 in a récent phone.
