The only phone that comes to mind is the fairphone but if you're in the USA then you're screwed. Headphones you can get a ton of different options. At home I have beywrdynamic dt990s and on the go I have Shure sonic 4s because they're both easily repairable and sound good. Anything with a removable cable will work here but you might as well splurge on something hifi because good audio stays good

I sold home textiles too long to pay for college 🙃

All down eventually migrates to the edges. I bought a second one and sat out in the driveway one day and removed the down from first one and stuffed it into middle channels of new one. I then sewed extra seams to middle channels to secure extra down. To this day, a decade later, that down cover is heavy and full all over. Also, as others mentioned, the duvet cover is I portent for quality and feel.
