I asked the same thing a few months ago and got a lot of good advice. Good luck! 
Ngl all phones suck massive ass. Fairphone is ok if you want your phone to be user serviceable but they're far from being nice phones to actually use. But at least they aren't designed to be ewaste at the point of sale.
I used to have a fairphone 3 actually, that's the one that died. Liked being able to replace, almost, everything. But right now it's a bit too expensive for me. Back then I had a better paying job. Thanks for the tip though.
Ah that sucks, didn't know the mainboards cost as much at the phone it feels like thats antithetical to what they were trying to achieve. Alas capitalism finds a way to ruin everything i guess.
They don't even sell the mainboards, so I would need to solder it myself or buy a new one.
That sucks more than I ever knew. Only Nokia could save us but they were gutted and now exist in name only
What's your budget? Do you have any requirements? What do you do with your phone?
I read a lot on my phone. I guess my budget is sub 500€ preferably less. Important are dual-sim and sd-card space. Secondary are replacable battery and 3.5 mm headphone jack. Edit: My last phone came with root access unlocked, that was very nice for installing open source stuff.
Check out Poco F5 Pro, also pretty poggers will last for years due to custom roms
