Interesting, I read so much negative feedback about the Pixel 6 and 7 hardware that it really stuck with me. Also I'm not in the US so I wouldn't benefit from a lot of Pixel unique features.
By the way, is it true you can't remove the search bar from the Pixel launcher?

And yes, I know that buying Samsung indirectly supports Google, but it seems like a potential better deal to get a slightly better phone.
I have the 7 and have never had a complaint. Got it because I accidentally ruined my last one.
Can't move the search bar. I'll be honest the thought had never occurred to me until you asked
It's worse then that there is so much bloatware on a pixel, I'm surprised there isn't more complaining. You can "remove" it with ADB but it doesn't actually remove it.
