Pixels are just bad hardware. 3 models got software updates that destroy battery life and more issues. No DAC ever worked properly on my 6a. They did gave me $100 for replacing the battery but I bought an s25. The Samsung has great hardware, software is less good than the pixel.
Don’t buy any Samsung devices, got it.
But what options are there for non tech savvy people. Apple isn’t any better.

OnePlus, Pixel, Sony, Sharp.
Fairphone or a Google Pixle (optional GraphenOS, ive had non-tech people install it with no issues)
I’ve got a Motorola, it probably still has spyware but at least it’s cheap, durable, and has a decent battery.
