Use the right oil from Walmart or whatever and I used a fram oil filter. I used a higher end one then the standard orange box one. Never had any issues.
Pros: no issues

I use Wix oil filter with every change. Decent price and is all metal with a good filter. Does the job and has never failed on me.
Pros: decent price, good filter
I’ve always used the OEM filter and Kirkland 0W-20 oil on my 2013 Skyactiv because I remember reading on the forums that due to the high compression of the engine the Mazda filter is specialized to handle that. Not sure if it’s true but no problems yet on 7.5k OCI.
Pros: no problems yet

Mazda 2
Mileage: 7500 km
this picture is an OEM [MANN] oil filter that is 2k past due on the oil service. Again, the advantage of paper filters is that I can see every single one and determine which seems to hold up and which do not. I do not cut open the metal canister versions unless I am looking for something [aka diagnosis]. Some of the really cheap ones will break apart when you take them out of the housing. They literally break apart in your hands. This filter is not collapsed like the Wix version.
Pros: not collapsed, holds up well
people are really set on the subaru filters as opposed to fram or others, and they’re really not very expensive so i just do it.
Pros: inexpensive, good quality
Vehicle:
Subaru Impreza

Replacing the filter is a pain. I have a 2013 Traverse. But I have found a way to do it without spilling oil or making a mess.
Pros: no spilling, no mess
Cons: filter replacement is pain
Vehicle:
Chevrolet Traverse

Pros: nut for easier removal
Cons: costs more

Wal-mart typically only stocks the Fram filter (gross) for my truck. FRAM (avoid) is PH2. All of them are fine except Fram, unless you are in a pinch.
Cons: gross quality, avoid
Vehicle:
Ford
Part number: PH2
Mine was my oil filter! I used a k&n because they come with a oil change reminder sticker. Leaked like mad.
Pros: oil change reminder sticker
Cons: leaked like mad
Vehicle:
Hyundai Genesis Coupe
