It's a bit of a forum cliche but the best sounding and feeling strat I've played for me is the Silver Sky the body shape feels a bit different and more compact or something, and the pickups didn't seem as hollow or thin sounding as your typical Fender.
I think strats are like playing digital synthesisers. Efficient, cost effective, versatile. The go to...
A telecaster is like the moog/juno/jupiter/303 fat analog synths.
A gibson les paul custom is like the church organ. The royal big bertha to rule them all.
Prefer a Tele first and foremost but closely followed by a Strat. Never played an SG I don't think. Les Pauls sound great but just don't feel as good to me. PRS somewhere inbetween.
Yes, Strats are nice.

Lowering my expectations has succeeded beyond my wildest dreams.
The neck sound especially is just sublime.
Here's mine through a clean amp running flat out, it's just a phone video unfortunately but in the room it sounded huge.
I'm at five guitars - a Les Paul Standard and four Strats!
Loved that - great rendition of Purple Haze, great tone & playing, and your Strat really sung! I think the girls vocals could have come up in the mix though as I couldn't hear her!
The stratocaster is such a remarkably well thought out piece of engineering from 1954, that hasn't really changed that much since then.
I found it amazing that one of the reasons Leo sold to CBS, was because he felt all had been done with the electric guitar. That and he was anxious about solid state amplifiers.

since then i have a lot of love for single coils, teles, jazzmasters, jaguar guitars etc.
currently i have 1 guitar a newly bought cort g300 glam hh that i really like.
at some point i would def like to try another strat (most likely a squier of some sort).
