I have a BQ Aquaris FHD that I bought when canonical still was working on UT. It is a great device, I use it ever day.

Since 2017 (I had a Jolla phone before that) I've had a Nexus5 phone as my daily driver, eventually it started falling apart and then the screen cracked. Recently I started using a Xiaomi Mi A2.

With the right device UT is definitively daily driver capable, I have never cosidered android or ios since I started with UT. It also keeps improving!
