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.

A few days ago there was talk about the Asus Zenfone 10, maybe it's worth taking a look at.
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 🔥
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.
The pixel 5a has some reliability issues it's predassessors did not. It is an extremely fragile device.

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.

Can you explain more?
I have an iPhone which has a lightning connector - if I want to hook it up to the computer, I can either connect Bluetooth, or I can plug in a 3.5mm aux connector to the lightning port... which would also allow me to connect my old Sennheiser headphones.
However, for listening to podcasts at bedtime, I generally just use the computer which usually goes to sleep at bedtime - but I could adjust that.
LG v50 is my favourite. I selling one on e bay, EU only. It's totally like new.
