Thoughts on a £500 budget - great camera, battery that lasts a day, and dual sim. Thinking of a refurbished S21 Ultra.

My phone screen just got smashed to bits. I'm not interested in buying the latest and greatest as I think previous 2 years has seen some great phones.

Currently at the £500 mark for refurbished I'm looking at the following.
  • Pixel 6 Pro
  • Pixel 7 (horrendous battery I heard)
  • S21 Ultra
  • Oneplus 11
And my other nice to haves are 5g, IP rated, and 256GB memory. Thoughts?
 
I have a Pixel 7 and the battery life is pretty decent. It's better than the Pixel 6 Pro that I had before.
I will add that the Pixel 7 is the best phone I've owned. It's the only one where I haven't bothered upgrading when the new version has come out.
 
Ended up buying a Pixel 7 Pro used from back market for £470 where they've guaranteed screen to be in pristine condition. I would have grabbed the S23 but having had a P30 pro in the past with an optical zoom of 5x/periscope minimum (x3 doesn't quite cut it), I can't live with a phone without that anymore - concerts, sports events, ceremonies... . And 128gb storage is small enough to annoy me as I take a lot of videos.

Thanks all for the advice
