Is the Sonim XP3plus the only phone with FM radio available from T-Mobile right now?

None you will have to go older than new to get one. FM has been phased out of phones for about a decade now in the states.
This is terrible (not your fault)! I'm going back to my flip phone immediately and will refuse to buy a phone or car again that doesn't come with what I deam important without a suitable alternative.
Digital radio could be a suitable alternative and I believe that's where this would end up going.
I can't see AM be useful for anything else though. A quarter wave antenna for FM (VHF 88MHz to 108MHz) is only about 2ft long (easy to shorten and still be decently efficient for mobile transmissions). But AM is too low of frequency (MF 580kHz to 1,700kHz) and a quaterwave transmitting antenna would be over 200ft long. How are you supposed to wrap that up into a portable package useful for anything other than receive-only?
Ironically when I went to reply to this a “403 error” came up, which is just one of many problems with digital send-and-receive even when there's no emergency and no pile-up.
