This depends on one’s scale of preference as I myself prefer to use the google messages because of the skin material and the interface compared to Samsung messages which looks dull to me.

As for delivery report, I love how Google messages show it’s delivery report compared to Samsung messages delivery report which looks poor to me. Asking is it better to use Samsung messages or Google messages goes down to your choice as I have seen quite number of samsung users that prefers the Samsung messages to Google messages app.
So it is better to use the two messages app, compare them and make your decision or choice.
