โ‰  not able to.

Therefore, no monopoly.

Thats not how that works. When the largest established player in an industry sector pays off or buys all the competition then thats a monopoly. Thats what Google has been doing for years and thats why they are getting sued.

Ofc playstore will come preinstalled on android phones

But they have also pushed other android phone manufacturers not to create their own app stores. Another anticompetitive thing that shows up in lawsuits.

Anyways its weird that you think you have a better idea of what constitutes a monopoly, when they are, at this moment, in the process of being sued for being exactly that.
