Swollen battery - looking for an upgrade

I've had a Pixel 6 since May 2022. It has been a pretty solid device aside from, lately, a poor battery and now the swelling. I spoke with support and they only gave me a 20% off code for a new device. Since it's out of warranty I'm not getting any luck with a free battery replacement or device at this point.

Since updates are ending anyway, and the Pixel 10 series is on sale, it seems like it's time for me to upgrade. I really wish that I could hold out until the 11, but that doesn't seem like a possibility.

For folks who have upgraded to the 10 series, how do you feel about it? I only have a Pixel phone but no other accessories, so I have considered switching over to the iPhone 17 as well. I really enjoy the Pixel software, and I don't do any intensive gaming on my phone so performance isn't a huge priority, but I do appreciate longevity.
