If I buy the best that either company has to offer (Pixel 8 pro or S23 Ultra)
Which one, in your opinion, would be the best Android experience and why? Would love to know your thoughts.

If it weren’t for Samsung crap like pre-installed Facebook and other bloat, unremovable Samsung apps etc. I’d go for one because I really like Dex, the fact that they put latest hardware available in their flagship etc. But considering things as they are, I’d choose the Pixel.
Even their keyboard wants to connect online and access to your contacts. Kinda creepy. If you get Samsung there’s a ton of stuff you need to disable privacy-wise. But yeah their hardware is amazing.
You can uninstall everything with this easily: https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater
Apps that you can not uninstall natively will not be uninstalled but “disabled” at boot. You can only remove bloatware if you have root access.
That’s fine. While it still takes space, it does not run in the background or at all. You can literally disable everything and softbrick the phone.
It’s not fine. While you may not care, many don’t accept software that they don’t want taking up space on their phone.
I guess you’re right.
I admit I haven’t thought about storage space on my phone for many years now, but that’s just my personal experience.

Not all Samsungs come with Facebook
There are options for debloating (like uninstalling via adb) but the thing I read about camera no longer working after flashing a custom rom made this piece of crap I am writing from my first and last Samsung. Good luck with your Pixel
