I've been using China/Xiaomi Phones for the longest time and hated the installed Android Version because all of the clutter, bloat and privacy concerns. Now I am about to buy a Google Pixel 7 Pro.

What do you guys think, is a Custom ROM needed or should I just stick to the Default with Adguard and Disable some Google Apps to get a similar Experience?

Just hoping to get some Opinions. :)

I wouldn't use any Android device with the stock ROM if you have the option. Custom ROMS will give you more control over your device, less bloat, and often longer software support.

Last time I tried custom ROM my bank account app wouldn't work

Interesting. I've been rooted and running custom ROMs for a decade at this point and have never had an issue with banking apps.
