Can you recommend any specific model of Sony phone? I'm thinking it'll be my next one. I have an older Sony Vaio that I loved, and it ran Linux like a charm. Need a new phone and will only buy one with a microSD slot so...

Depends how high end you want to go tbh. Of their current lineup I only have experience with the Xperia 5 series, and it was great. I believe the current gen is the Xperia 5 V (still the dumbest naming scheme I've ever heard...)

I'm not really treating it as a proper recommendation, though, because I've not seen any reviews or anything. This is based on a slightly older model I had as a work phone.

Sounds like you liked it! I currently have a Samsung Note 8 and it's getting long in the tooth. I'll take a look :)
