Personally I think the ZenPhone 9 series looked very sleek and cool - especially the in red colour choice.

Downvote me all you want but I actually liked the Surface Phones.
They were well built, I could multitask nicely, the thin bumpers were nice, it wasn't overly gimmicky. I preferred the divider between the screens.
Downsides...not a flagship in any specs. Also terminated.
I learned about them two weeks before they lost support, wanted one really bad and I'm glad I had only just bought a phone already (Pixel 7a) otherwise I would have bought it only to then look up the update cycle and see it was about to be discontinued.
That being said, reviewers noted at the time that the multitasking on Android was a bit clunky, which may have been an opening for a custom ROM to come in and improve this.
