I am really happy with my Asus Zenphone 9. The best feature is the long battery life. If i wanted i could use the phone for ~72h, though I usually charge it to 80% and charge the phone every 2 days instead.
The Battery Life was my main buying point, the aux and smaller size were important though too.
It also has an actual gimble for camera stabilisation in the lense instead of the typical stabilization through a sensor, though i guess it is more of a gimmick. I myself don't take that many action shots where this could be useful, so I can't really give any info if it is better than the usual way of stabilization.
Since it is an Asus phone I think it also is pretty powerful and power efficient for mobile gaming if that interests you (I don't care about that).
End of this Month they will also reveal the Zenphone 10, so maybe this might also be a possible phone to check out. I bought mine also directly release last year since I was looking for a new phone around that time. It was bundled with a chromebook that I was able to resell so it was a nice deal in comparison to other comparable phones.

Sony Xperia phones?
Not sure if you can still get a Samsung A52s. That'd be a nice pick if you still can get it. It's what I use and it's one of the few with the trifecta of features I was looking for: 3.5mm jack, memory card slot, and OIS in the main camera.
I've actually heard really good things about this.
Just wasn't sure about if the SD865 was already feeling sluggish to me, the Samsung midrange would feel even slower.
LG v50 is my favourite. I selling one on e bay, EU only. It's totally like new.
OnePlus7Pro
They make USB-C to headphone adapters that also have a USB-C for charging in case you need both art the same time. I hated losing my headphone jack, but the adapters work.
