I admittedly have no personal experience with Pixel; I have observed that people who get Pixels either love them or they’re total shit & they hate them. No inbetweens, love or hate. My BIL got a shit one, but I see lots of happy Pixel owners.
I currently have an Oukitel Titan. It’s a little quirky sometimes but it’s also a beast of a phone, which makes up for any mishaps.
I recently switched from Motorola to a Pixel 9 and I’m very happy! Absolutely hated the 5 minutes that the Pixel was running stock Android tho (they remapped the Off button to an AI button and I couldn’t figure out how to power down the phone), but once that crap was gone and GrapheneOS was installed I stayed 100% content. I’m not even a particularly security focused person, but Graphene’s dedication to keeping bloatware and unnecessary dumb shit off the OS has been very appreciated
