Neither?
I moved from Samsung to Sony. I gave the Pixel a try, but it's basically the same arbitrarily cut down hardware. Sony is making the last remaining flagship with a headphone jack and expandable storage.
I miss having Dex from Samsung, I miss having a more effective software for point and shoot picture processing. Other than that, I'm not looking back.
Why would you need expandable storage? Everything should be backed up via the cloud. Either a paid cloud, or your own (or both).
People walking around with a ton of data on their phone is crazy. It can be dropped, broken, stolen, etc at any time.
If my phone broke or was stolen I'd lose nothing. Everything is backed up immediately to my unraid server.
Expandable storage is pretty useful for someone who has a large library of music (especially a library in lossless formats).
