By far my most favorite use is as a notepad that I always have with me. I use the Typewise keyboard to type quickly and accurately and it’s routinely very useful.
Anything y’all like to do with your phones that you feel like most people miss out on?

You don’t need an ethernet adapter to use your phone as a cabled hotspot for a computer. Just a regular usb cabe works just fine, I’ve done it before when our home internet was down.
That’s true, but with the Ethernet connection you can tether to a router directly. When my Internet was down I was able to tether my entire home for the time I needed to get some updates finished to get my docker environment back up and running. I had no idea that was possible before that.
I had no idea! So you use the phone in tether mode and get it hooked up on a router ethernet port and it works like that? Did you have to change any settings on your router to make it work?
Nope it all just worked, it really surprised me honestly. I expected to need to do some weird tethering to a raspi or something to make it work but I didn’t need any of that. (Well, I had issues because it turned out lightning borked my router, but that was a different issue entirely.)
