Recommended FLAC converter? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have a collection of music in flac format and now I want to store them on my phone. flac files get too much space and downloading all the playlist in mp3 takes as much time as finding decent and real high quality flacs (there is plenty of songs on internet which only look like 320kbps and are not really high quality). So I decided to convert my flac files into mp3 and I prefer minimum amount of quality loss; what is the best software for it?

Doesn't matter if conversion take some time if the quality would be decent.

I use FFmpeg Batch Audio Video converter, it's just a GUI FFmpeg. I use it to convert FLAC to MP3 when I was going on a trip and only had a CD Player and I use it to convert 7.1 Audio down to AC3 5.1 to fit my sound system. It has a MP3 preset but I had to add one for the 5.1 conversion.

I wrote a script for this btw if you'd rather use the CLI. Runs a whole little wizard and everything lol, even tells you to have a nice day on exit! I'm no programmer but it's honest work.

Here ya go, it'll be there for 12hr. Like I said it ain't the best, it is basically a glorified hello world that I used to learn how to bash a little, but I have used it so often lol.
