      Good news, you (probably) can! Find a flagship phone you like from a year to three ago, and go buy a gently used one. Buying things used is almost always better for the environment than buying them new.

        So far I can’t find anything that fits me better than a CMF Nothing Phone.

        $240.

        Fairly powerful hardware for that price range.

        Apparently capable of running e/OS

        A shape that has actual flat, easily gripable edges, as opposed to seemingly everything else that is completely rounded.

        (I’ve got a serious wrist/hand injury to my dominant hand, and that makes this last one pretty important)

        Is there anything comparable for all or most of those features, in that price range, capable of being either de googled android, or running an open source and/or privacy oriented os?

        I’ve attempted to look for such a phone, and basically everything is either double or more the cost.
