Samsung
- Bloatware vs no bloatware
- Slow/irregular OTA’s vs timely/monthly OTA’s
- Difficult to unlock bootloader (depending on CPU, impossible depending if issued by VZW) vs easy to unlock bootloader (impossible if issued by VZW)
- Custom skinned ui that slows shit down and eats additional memory/storage capacity vs stock UI that doesn’t eat additional memory/storage and doesn’t slow anything down
- Smaller bezels, supports 120hz, faster wireless charging
- Supports ultrasonic fingerprint on the flagships which cant be spoofed by photos
- Local notes app if u care about privacy
- Pop up view for apps which also allow u multitask to in a landscape app
-
Pixel
- No bloatware, stock Android superiority, updates on time that aren’t missing cherry picked patches, and Google goodies like call screening and other little helpful things throughout the ui
- Pixel 7s are the only phones dat can run 64 bit apps so its more secure and should run more smoothly
- From reviews, the pixel 7s seem to be the only android that doesn’t lag when switching between the lens
- Car crash detection
- Cheaper, does the same thing
- Navigating felt easier
- No bloatware
