So why do you have a Pixel? (lemmy.ml)

Since there's no self posts here yet, I thought I'd bring up a question for those that decided to settle into Lemmy. Welcome to those here so far!

There's a ton of reasons to choose the a Pixel, but what's one or two major points that keep you hooked?

For me, I'm in love with the speed of the UI, and of course the ability to sideload apps if I want. Being in control of a device you spend a lot of money on makes a lot of sense.

Pixel 7 pro here, got it about a month ago. I got it for a few reasons:

The speed and ease of use of the UI.
The camera and photo editing options are awesome.
It can do everything the S23 Ultra can do, for a fraction of the price.
Came with really no bloat-ware (I think there was like 10 apps built into the phone when i turned it on. They were all Google apps and a couple from my service provider that i would've dl on my own anyway).
First dibs at all new Android features.

I've always been a Samsung guy, but so far I'm really loving this phone. My only real complaint is that not all of the functions of my Galaxy Watch 4 work on a non-samsung phone (stupid Samsung proprietary apps).
