I have a set of 18 year old Shure SE530 headphones that I still use. I simply bought an external bluetooth adapter for them. I would challenge anyone to do a double blind test with them bluetooth vs. hardwired.

Sony Xperia phones?
Not sure if you can still get a Samsung A52s. That'd be a nice pick if you still can get it. It's what I use and it's one of the few with the trifecta of features I was looking for: 3.5mm jack, memory card slot, and OIS in the main camera.

It may be on the older side, but I've been using my Pixel 4A for three years or so, no complaints. I also use the headphone whenever possible. Also using GrapheneOS.
You may want to check out the Pixel 5A (also has a headphone jack if I'm not mistaken) for a bit of a newer phone, but the one I got used seems to have a band issue in which it would forcefully shut down after some time with my SIM card.
my pixel 4a is still kicking it
I do need to back it up and factory reboot tho, I think that might help some of the typing issues that have come up recently.
The pixel 5a has some reliability issues it's predassessors did not. It is an extremely fragile device.

What is showing its age on your v60? I still use, and recommend, a Samsung Note 10 Lite. It has a headphone jack and that terrific stylus built in. It's on Android 12 and has no lagginess issues that even new phones have. There is an Android 13 update too, but I have not updated yet.
That's a Downgrade in all ways
Nokia's X series 🔥
They make USB-C to headphone adapters that also have a USB-C for charging in case you need both art the same time. I hated losing my headphone jack, but the adapters work.

LG v50 is my favourite. I selling one on e bay, EU only. It's totally like new.
Have you considered a separate PMP or cheap smartphone to use for falling asleep to podcasts? I too enjoy wired headphones, but I think that limiting myself to that scope for my daily driver smartphone will most likely result in some other compromise that I don't want to make. So I have wired headphones for the use cases where it's required, and have wireless headphones to listen to music from my phone.
