DuckDuckGo works fine for me, it checks most of your boxes. Not sure about the ad blocker, but I run a pi-hole on my home network so I don’t see most of them anyway.

Choose the one you’re using on the desktop. Under the hood they’re all Safari but at least this way you can sync everything to your desktop.
Aren't they all Safari anyway?
On iOS the web rendering engine is the same one used in Safari, yeah.
But everything built on top of that is custom.
This is accurate. Additionally, the WebKit rendering engine that they have to use is open source, so not too bad imo
Orion is my favorite

This is exciting I didn't know it was free, or that you could install ublock origin through it.
It has a built in ad blocker, so you don’t need ublock, even though it would work too.

First I’ve heard of it seems like a good choice so far
Orion is the only other choice. And to be fair, Safari with content blockers works fine too; but obviously it’s not an in-built adblocker that you are specifically asking.
Not an expert but Duck Duck Go browser is decent afaik. Happy to be corrected though. Brave browser is one I use a lot too but I think it has some AI stuff now, though I believe you can turn it off
Brave works really well for blocking on iOS. At least is has for me for quite some time. And Orion is another solid option. If I could get Floccus extension to work properly with Orion I'd probably switch completely.
