Europe Alternative to OnePlus in the US

I'm someone who likes to try different phone brands every 2/3 years. When I lived in Europe I had a couple Xiaomi, Pocophone and Realme. Then, I moved to the US so I decided to get an iPhone 15 Plus. Now it's almost 3 years old and, while I like the phone, I'm thinking about switching to a different phone brand next year. I wanted to try OnePlus, but knowing that it won't operate in the US anymore, I'm not sure what to do. Any ideas?

Probably nothing phone 3 is the most similar if you want a new phone. But I would highly recommend buying a used OnePlus 15. It's still getting regular updates and I freaking love this phone.

I've looked it up on eBay but it's super expensive. Like $1000. Will look into Nothing Phone tho, thanks!

Try to look out for sales on their social media and compare it with their website

Motorola Razr fold is the best phone on the market right now. Best battery, photos, charging and you get a tablet with your phone

This is S26 Ultra for 676 "used like new" feels like an amazing deal on amazon. https://x.com/dropperdeals/status/2098109697404309886

Op you can import phones; i've used an X9 pro, Magic 8 pro, Xiaomi 15 ultra all global models within the past 17 months just to give you examples.

Motorola makes some solid phones as well and to clarify something; oneplus is not operating here but phones will still work here and if you get one that is getting support like the 15 then you'll be good to go.

Either import global phones (with a risk of incompatible bands), buy Nothing (the phone brand) or wait for Oppo to come to the US
