OnePlus 8 Pro. The hardware is good (except for overheating when recording long videos), the software has many small issues that makes it hard to recommend. Switching apps sometimes it'll freeze and you have to press the recent button (square) then back to the app to make it respond. The phone will become laggy after 1-2 weeks without restart. The screen turns yellow whenever an HDR video is played. It also doesn't have a one-handed mode, since it's a big phone, makes reaching the corners with 1 hand almost impossible. Also VPN app gets killed randomly, so you lose connection without notice.
This phone is 8/10 hardware, but 5/10 software. Maybe when there are stable third party ROM for it that solves these issues, then it'll be worth buying.

You should be able to use Lineage OS on your 8 Pro: https://lineageosroms.com/instantnoodlep/

I might look into it. I used Lineage OS on the Essential Ph-1 and it was even slower than the stock ROM.
