Wow, that’s a lot. Just install any offline music player on your phone and transfer songs to it…?

My current music collection is 399GB (mostly lossless Flacs).

I'm not buying a phone with 512GB-1TB of storage just for my music, 5G is available everywhere and my home internet connection is plenty fast. I can just stream it from home - maybe sync some locally if I'm going off grid.

And moving files manually one by one to my phone? Oof. It's not the early 2000s, we have better solutions.

Then convert it to Opus. I have a similar ~440 GB in FLAC and would never opt for such a complex solution when one of the major benefits of FLAC is that you can do proper encoding yourself.
