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.

    I like what other people describe as ‘bloat’ on a Samsung. But I am a powetuser who actually uses a lof these functions. Sure i dont need two calenders. But i can just not activate the samsung one and hide it in the launcher. Also i would say that samsung has a better ecosystem. I am also using a samsung tablet which is superb and some samsung smart tags. If you get a pixel you dont really have an option to use any working smart tag.

    All the nerds like to recommend the Pixel since it’s “pure” and a device for tinkering. But ignore the fact that all google products are unfinished, and this is true for the pixel line. If you are OK with beta testing for google and doing workarounds for bugs, then this is fine. But not everyone has time and nerves for that.

    Yeah, samsung has bloat(most can be removed, disabled etc.) but I’ve never had OS bugs like when I had a Nexus or a Pixel.

    Samsung is using by far the worst OEM Rom, Pixel has by far the best. Go for the Pixel
