The Pixel 3 was a great phone. If https://lineageos.org/ https://lineageos.org/ or https://calyxos.org/ https://calyxos.org/ had been able to come up with an AI assisted camera which could match the Google Camera app (The lens is trash, Google uses software to make good images) then it would have been great. Benefit of actual quality camera lenses is these open source OS can still provide good photos using a stock android camera app.

  On pixel phones I'm pretty sure you can install the camera from the Play Store with no fuss on LineaseOS. I say that using a LineaseOS Pixel 4a with Google Camera and don't remember doing anything special to install it.

I have never had an issue with the stock camera on GrapheneOS, and struggle to understand what better quality one could want... AI to fill in colors and details...potentially wrong?

  The Pixel phones are well known for having a _ton_ of postprocessing for their photos to look good. Stabilisation, color correcting a known faulty sensor, etc. Not having this is truly visible.
