Can’t agree on Samsung at all, unless it’s an old model that you plan to put LineageOS on to wipe all the crap away. Samsung’s flavor of Android is one of the most extensively modified of manufacturer variants and they push their own stuff over Google’s or AOSP’s hard.
+1, every Samsung device that I’ve owned has been super in my face with apps and ads and services that I couldn’t give less of a shit about. Their hardware is fine but oh man OneUI is a hot mess until you freeze or disable a bunch of stuff.
Google doesn’t put out enough products to be on this list and almost all their phones seem to have at least one fatal flaw. Some might be fixable via software, but not always.
Google’s phones have had screen issues. There was also some kind of phantom power draw issue in the previous version. Turning a blind eye to quality problems doesn’t make them go away.

Google hardware has limited worldwide availability which pretty much makes them non-mainstream.

Apple, then Samsung.
