Does that Xiaomi model come without ads? The fact that I even have to ask that is an indicator on its own.

> What sucks about [...] Pixel 6A for instance?

But what's better? The price is pretty much the same.

Yes, there are no ads in Xiaomi phones, nobody force you to use preinstalled Xiaomi apps and there are no ads if you pay attention during setup and don't just click Next but read what's shown on screen.

Brand new iPhone cost 380EUR without any plan same as 6A? Provide please link, I will make tons of money reselling them, thank you.

Yeah, because Apple apps don't have ads. Enough said.
