I have the Pixel 7 Pro and there's no ad forcing. Some apps can push ads, but just block them or don't use those apps. I'm using the Nova Launcher though. Idk if that matters.
The Pixel 7 pro is ๐. No ads. Are there preinstalled 3rd-party apps like Facebook or Spotify?
It's ๐ that tester1121 isn't focused on Pixel and considers other phones. But if his Pixel 6 pro is still ๐, I suggest using it for minimum 2 more years. If he needs to replace it now, I suggest the Pixel 8. USD 641 on Amazon.
Mine didn't come with anything pre-installed. I bought it directly from Google though. Idk if that changes things.
