You have root access in pixel phone and can install custom ROMs like graphene OS.

I’m an Apple person, but for customizability you can’t beat a google pixel with an unlocked boot loader. You can literally run anything you want.
So are you saying that apple is better, or just saying proprietary mobile OSes Bad?
