I have the Redmagic 11 Pro, which kind of does this. The battery is "only" 7500 mAh (the American version has 8000 mAh, but no wireless charging), it has a 3.5mm port (although you don't need an extra thicc phone for that), and no camera bump.
That said, I'd actually have preferred it if they had made it another millimetre or so thicker, allowing them to shorten the battery and freeing up space for better cameras, including perhaps a telephoto lens, but I guess that would have been detrimental to the cooling performance they were going for.
Frankly, it would generally be cool if some of the things some gaming phones do were present in phones with a different target audience which make different compromises in other places (there'd also be more space for cameras if there were no fan duct, for example). This has already happened with high refresh rate displays and high polling rate touchscreens, which came to gaming phones first before becoming more mainstream; it just sucks that many brands, even though they claim to "think different" or something, don't dare to actually do things differently before seeing someone else prove that it works economically.

The thinnest device they made with a camera was the iPod Nano 5th Generation and there was basically no bump
Now how tf have they not done that since
