I have a Pixel 5 and recently bought a previously owned Mi A2 Lite because it was an "Android One" device. Never could imagine the system would be so terrible, full of small but very annoying bugs (such as "settings suggest" never leaving the settings menu). I tried everything to solve them, including a full flash of the OEM ROM. In the end, I opted to go for a custom ROM (Havoc) which is lighter and with no bugs. This experience showed me how difficult is for a AOSP functional ROM to exist outside the Pixel devices. It's a shame, but for me Android One was terrible.
