Are there really no good options besides Galaxy and Pixel?

I can upgrade and I've had galaxy phones forever, I'll be going from an S24+ right now. I know the S26 line would be a step up, but I keep seeing people complain about the poor battery life, and the small updates. So maybe I get the 26 ultra? Even if I pay a little bit, seems like my best bet. My only other option seems to be a pixel pro which looks good too, but then I see reviews saying it's really underpowered. Is there really no other choice besides these two? I know there are things like oneplus and the nothing phone, but are they really worth exploring?

Android 16 and iPhone AirDrop

I don’t know if you guys already know this already, but here’s something I tried today.

I have a Pixel 10 Pro running Android 16 and a MacBook Pro M1 with the latest macOS (26.x.x). I took a great photo and wanted to set it as my desktop wallpaper, but I couldn’t figure out an easy way to transfer the image to my Mac.

At first, I tried Bluetooth, but then I noticed an option to send it via AirDrop. Surprisingly, it worked — my MacBook showed up in the Pixel Files app, and I was able to transfer files between my Android phone and MacBook without using any third-party app.

I was honestly really happy to discover that. And here’s how my wallpaper looks now.
