    Haha, yeah… I ended up finding a cheap used OnePlus 5T in good shape and swapped the screens. There is Android 14 with LineageOS and other custom roms available, so I can keep the phone “up-to-date” and running for a while.

    I still keep an eye on the phone market and more or less following the Asus drama with GamersNexus and the threads on XDA.

    I haven’t upgraded to Android 14 yet. It’s painful to do backups and restores with 128GB storage and USB 2.0 but I will get there soon.

    Thank you everyone and thank you for the links! Based on all info, I decided to wait for Asus’s statement until the end of April. I hope my current phone will survive until then. In case of no good news, I will try to find a OnePlus Nord CE2 somewhere, or may go with a good used one. If that doesn’t work out either, then maybe an Xperia. Or Nothing 2. Or Pixel… We’ll see.
