A used Pixel should tick all the boxes, plus it supports GrapheneOS.
No idea when they started to implant displays with such insanely high refresh rate (I cant see that) but the 8 may already be available?
I got a 6a for 160€.
Yeah I'm getting the sense that it'll be a good choice, I just think they're hideous.
Only anecdotally, but a friend of mine has been complaining about his 6a for at least 2 months now, saying the device gets sluggish and he encounters more bugs with every update. My mom reports similar things with her 7 Pro. So if GrapheneOS isn‘t important for you, I would skip Pixels for now. The Nothing 2a looks really good though.
My 6a is not sluggish on GrapheneOS. Maybe it is not an additional feature but the solution.
Are they using GrapheneOS?
