Agree I have a Samsung phone and hate the damn intrusive Samsung bloatware. I'm just going to buy a Google phone next time to get Android unadulterated. Though people still have their complaints with those Pixel phones and they're more expensive. Well at least maybe then I can tolerate my phone instead of downright loathe it.
That's my biggest problem with my s22u. Samsung is always launching a new app to annoy me.
No, I don't want Bixby, no I don't want your tips, just give me a nice android experience.
I tried switching to Pixel 7 Pro last fall, and I'm ready to go back to Samsung or try an iPhone next. The stupid thing loses GPS accuracy to outside of a block radius every other day. Also, every once in a while the app switcher just breaks because a Pixel service gets stuck. And the phone tends to crash every week or so if I don't reboot it.
I've been meaning to try graphene os, but haven't found the time to make that switch yet.
Thanks for the feedback. Those Pixel phones are on the expensive side. Unlike most I'm not willing to drop big money on a phone. I was looking at the Motorola line-up after someone mentioned they use a fairly bloatware free installation of Android. Their phones are inexpensive.
Haven't looked into Graphene OS, seen it mentioned. When you say open source it usually means you have to dive into the nuts and bolts of things, not sure I want to do that. I should probably look into it more. Really don't have any positive feeling toward either Android or iOS, giant douche or turd sandwich as the old South Park episode goes.
Motorola makes unbloated android phones with stock android and their gestures are really good. But they lack in the updating department.
If its stock android, how do they add gestures??
Hey thanks for that. Did some reading and even Pixel uses a "skin" so it's not a perfectly stock Android system. But the main thing is I want to avoid third party bloatware. Looks like Motorola does pretty well there, also inexpensive.
I am very happy with them, they are not without issues as I said they lack A LOT in the update department but I can't live without their gestures anymore, I know they are apps now but I have been using Motorola since the Moto X Play, and I buy Motorola for my family,
Also they have one of the smaller smartphones with the Motorola Edge 30 Neo and I really appreciate it.
Also awesome battery
HMD Nokia's are also pretty unbloated and work just fine, except mine got a shitty usb-c port that had to be replaced by warranty.
On the other hand, so did my 2 other previous phones, and they were Samsung.
Pixels are actually quite worth it, they work like a clockwork, soft and hardware are good and the cameras are up to standard. Its worth the money (don't buy on release)
Samsung pissed me off massively by having a pre installed Facebook app that cant be removed...
