This is me. As I write to you from my Graphene Pixel 9. My first non Samsung phone since the S3. The S22 unwanted ads were just too much. (and apparently it's all worse now) You could disable them, but you had to re disable after every update. The second I found a good deal on a pixel I jumped.
I had a Note 20. A week ago I got an Xperia 5 II for 70€ and installed LineageOS and it's so much faster than the Samsung. Decent Pixels are a quite expensive here so no Graphene for me
