used SDM845 or similar phone (Poco F1, Oneplus 6/6T, etc). it should be attainable in the $50-100 region. blazing fast, good features, you can get at the battery with some finagling and thus replace it, etc.
not only does it have support for lineageOS, practically every Linux (mobian, postmarket, ubuntu touch) supports it. get the 8 GB version. when you're done using it after a few years, it can be a great home server!
if you come up short, I'd suggest going to the lineageOS site, devices page, and filter for latest version (22.2 currently). that should give you all devices with current support. then you can see what you got available locally for cheap.
another resource to research brands and unlock options, the unlock wall of shame.
