Phone Recommendation for Canada (lemmy.ml)

I would love to use PostmarketOS as my daily driver but my Pinephone CE isn't really giving me the battery life I need to make it happen. I am looking at what phones I can get my hands on in Canada that would be better suited. So far the OnePlus 6T seems to be my best option. I can't get the Shift6mq or the Poco F1 shipped here. Any suggestions if battery life is my main need ? I take my phone off the charger at 11am and don't get home until close to midnight with no way to charge while at work.

If you like a headphone jack, and the 6 (no T) is also available in your region, I would go with it instead. Battery life should be fine, unless you leave battery hogging apps running all the time. My 6 definitely lasts from 7 a.m. (when I disconnect it) until the next morning when I forget to plug it back in - and that's with a Matrix account running in the background in Chats/chatty.
