I recently bought the "Motorola g7 power" and have been quite happy with it. The battery lasts much more than twice as long as any other smartphone I've owned. I have taken it on weekend trips without the charger, confident that it will last for two days no problem. With full charging once/day, it rarely goes below 60% of full charge. - big, but not giant. Fairly low-res (1570X720) by modern phone standards, but it looks great to me. - Bluetooth works fine for me, but specs on motorola.com say "Bluetooth® 4.2 LE, aptX", so maybe not good for you? - fingerprint reader on the back works well for me - not sure about durability, as I haven't dropped it yet. They claim water resistance, but again I haven't tested it. I like the Speck rubber cases for grip and drop protection. - does have audio jack - I'm very happy with the camera - speakers are fine for me, but I'm not picky I got it from my carrier for $240; Motorola lists it at $250. Note: Motorola sells at least 3 different g7 models with very different specs; I'm talking about the g7 power.

I have the Samsung 9+ with print reader and am very pleased. (except after an hour in the pool for the prnt reader) Unlike some others, we have and are happy with Samsung Smart TV, Samsung monitors, Samsung washer and dryer and Samsung frig. All have been problem free for close to 5 years, and the phone is now entering it's 2nd year, along with the Samsung 9 that my wife has.
