    I get it, I have a similar situation, except since I came back to Android I have been nothing but happy.

    I used to be into running custom stuff on Android before my switch to an iPhone. And I, too, have found it frustrating to be forced to respect Apple’s rules.

    Now, however, I have a Pixel 7 and it’s been a perfect experience so far. Running the stock OS non-rooted, it finally feels like my phone.

      I have the Pixel 7 Pro currently.

      It’d be a nice phone if shit worked, but the fingerprint scanner is literally worse than useless, various apps and functions lock up all the time, gestures don’t always work like they should, the Bluetooth connection with my car is wonky, it frequently gets in “moods” where I don’t get notifications, or texts come in on like a 5-15 minute delay, and sometimes it loses signal and won’t pick it up again until I restart it.

      The fingerprint scanner is the big one though. The backside scanner on the Pixel 3 was flawless. This one is so bad that I’d rather just not have one, and have the thing designed around not using one. It’s fantastically, wildly, comically bad.

        It should be the same fingerprint reader across the whole lineup, so I dont know what’s happened to yours. Mine works fine, not as fast as some ultrasonic counterparts, but I have no issue with that coming from iPhone Xs.
