Motorola gang pull up!!
I'm on the Motorola G100, traded in my Samsung S20 because the battery was dying way too fast on me. And the curved screen and glass back were bound to get wrecked by me, I'm always rough with my phones. My wife gave me grief for trading down to a mid-tier phone but I'm happy with my purchase.
Camera is secondary to me, a good battery life and clean user experience are the 2 big things for me. Motorola has done a good job at both, sometimes going with a lower end chip that saves battery life without compromising (noticeable) performance, and their take on Android is minimalistic.
OnePlus is another good option but availability in USA is sketchy, their Nord line is mid tier without too much compromises.
Alternatively, pick up last years flagship phone, either almost new or brand new. Retailers will try and offload old inventory for the new S22, so you can expect some savings there.
Just note that new phones:
1) tend to use more glass (curved front, back), which are prone to shattering if you use your phone roughly
2) don't come with expandable storage, you're 128gb is going to fill up quickly, so make sure you can stick a SD card in there
3) have in-screen fingerprint readers which are never as fast as a physical one, and if you're always skating or gripping decks your fingerprint wont get recognized
4) fast charging has become the norm but a charging brick is usually sold separately, get 1 and hop aboard the USB-C lifestyle
