I wish I knew the drawbacks of the Pixel UI before getting a Pixel 9
Too many quirks and drawbacks.
If you're looking for a top-tier Android smartphone, you may be considering a phone from the Samsung Galaxy S25 series or the Google Pixel 9 lineup. While Samsung's smartphones are excellent, you may be tempted to opt for Google's offerings if you're an Android purist. I picked up a Google Pixel 9 because I wanted a compact smartphone with good cameras and smooth software. While it delivers on those fronts, I regret not knowing a few things about the phone before buying it.
