If I buy the best that either company has to offer (Pixel 8 pro or S23 Ultra)

Which one, in your opinion, would be the best Android experience and why? Would love to know your thoughts.

    Controversial. I’ve owned many of the Nexus line and I own the pixel 6 pro. I also rocked an s7 for a while. Samsung definitely does a great job with their UI but I also would like to point out that these issues with pixel are not as common as news points them out to be. I know several people with pixel phones that experienced none of these issues.

    My advice is to just prioritize what you want out of your phone. The fact I will always get android updates first and probably the longest os support compared to Samsung and the ease in which I can flash custom ROMs of I wanted to is why I stick with pixel. Samsung definitely had extras I wish Google would bake into stock android though.

      I have a similar experience to the OC, I have 2 friends who returned their pixel 7s due to issues with the display or fingerprint reader. I have an S20 and my wife an S23 and only complaint is my wife’s S23 from TMobile has all the extra bloat apps, my unlocked S20 has nothing.

        Yeah, I also don’t like how every vendor is pushing you to their ecosystem. Smart things which you can’t get rid of, for example. At least that existed on the s7 😂.

        It would be good if your phone gave you the option. Everything is so fragmented in tech
