No such thing. Ask away!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

A lot of people won't like this answer, but I would not recommend anything from Samsung. Yes, the hardware on paper is typically excellent. However, everything else that comes with the experience is a complete joke to me.
And that's just software. It doesn't stop there. On my Note 10, the glass back completely peeled off, because of internal heat, and the only thing holding it together is the case. Keep in mind that this is from just regular usage. I don't play games on my phone, or do anything else that would warrant this kind of output
Interesting... I switched away from Samsung and actually hated stock Android!
Don't get me wrong, it's not perfect, but the issues I had with Samsung were solvable (e.g. uninstalling bloat is a one-time thing) while the annoyances I've had with a Pixel aren't solvable (quick settings, no third camera).
It all comes down to personal preferences and experiences, so I'm glad you had a good time
I've only used Samsung for a long time, starting with the Note 3, 5, 8, and now S22 Ultra. I've not experienced any of these problems. And you can just use a different launcher than OneUI (I'm currently using Total Launcher after years of using Nova).
None of the issues I've described have any relationship with the launcher
I agree completely. I LOVED the first 3-5 Galaxy S phones, but they just kept adding more bloat.
I'm on year 5 with my Pixel 3, and when it finally craps out, I'm going with another Pixel.
I loved my pixel 2, but hate my pixel 6. I'm switching away from pixel as soon as this one dies
Why is that if I may ask? I've gone from the nexus 4 - nexus 6p - pixel 2 - galaxy s10(fuck samsung, never again) - pixel 6. I'm happy enough with my pixel 6, it's not amazing but I don't really have any complaints about it either. I'm planning to use it until it either gets to slow for my liking or the battery goes to shit, whichever comes first.
I broke my One Plus 7 Pro and now have a Galaxy S21 Ultra, and while I don't hate it, I don't think I'll be getting another samsung
However, I will say, Samsung keyboard is legitimately the best Andorid keyboard overal. I'll probably be installing it onto my next phone. But, like, it's sad that that's the only nice thing I can say about it.
It's not a bad phone, and I bought it used, but Samsung is just so bloaty. I'd much rather a stock experience than their software
Wow. I absolutely detest the Samsung keyboard. It's absolutely retarded on terms of prediction and button accuracy.
Gboard, while not great, seems to be the best/most accurate. I don't like Gboard, don't get me wrong, but it's way more accurate than Samsung
I just like the ability to manually set the sizes of each key, because gboard I'm always hitting n when I want to hit soccer or y when I want to or u.
It's also the most customizable overall, not just the themeing but layout.
And it actually has a functional clipboard that doesn't last only a limited time.
