  1. I bought the Google Pixel 7a before this one. Software design was terrible and loaded with unnecessary "features". Returned it.
  2. I agree it's silly to spend that much on a phone. But the S23 was just under 800€ and I got a free pair of Galaxy Buds 2 Pro from a promotion.

Did you buy the Pixel 7a second hand or something, or through a carrier? The whole point of the Pixel phones is they're stock Android with zero unnecessary apps pre installed. Your shitty Samsung also has Android, but Samsung puts their own slow, bloated as hell interface over it. Not to mention all of the bloatware pre installed. Stop lying lmao.

It seems that you get so enraged by someone daring to like a different product than you that you lose your reading comprehension. I said the software design was terrible (i.e. how the menus were styled). I never said anything about bloatware. Also we already established that you have no idea what those phones actually cost and just throw around some made up numbers. Who's the liar now?
