I ordered my Pixel 6 on Halloween and getting it next week. Was so impressed with it that I’m switching from my iPhone 12. It’s amazing how much they were able to upgrade the Pixel in 1 year. I definitely think alot of iPhone users will switch eventually. All iPhone had was super performance and longer support over android. Now the playing field is more even with the new Tensor chip improving both performance and allowing the Pixel 6 and 6 pro longer support. Then again, I don’t care about which OS I use as long as it’s working well and lasts longer. I do like more customization though and that’s why I decided to switch after being an iPhone user mostly the last 5-6 years

[@DawidDgk]

This is the way!

[@efiu12]

You care about which lasts longer, yet you've upgraded from a phone that was a year old? Maybe I understood it wrong, but it fails to make sense

[@crazyfun5150]

@@efiu12 well it makes more sense when the iPhone 12 has hit or miss call quality and at times I’ve had Wi-Fi connection issues. So yeah I may be giving up an extra year maybe two of support. But if iPhone can’t get the basics right and it’s $130 more for the iPhone 12 than the Pixel 6, it made all the sense in the world to switch. Updates is just one important area, but if my phone can’t be reliable as a calling phone then it isn’t worth keeping in my opinion.

[@efiu12]

@@crazyfun5150 That sounds bad. I wasn't expecting that kind of quality from Apple. When the so-called support ends, the phone doesn't just expire. It is still usable. For example, I use a Nexus 5x that's reaching 6 years of age (3-4 years without OS updates) and it works just fine. There are days when I am away from the computer and have to do most tasks from the phone. My issue is that we are churning trash at a high pace. Everybody wants a new phone every 2-3 years and it is unsustainable. But I guess talking about this doesn't work. We just have to reach the end of the line to realize it

[@crazyfun5150]

@@efiu12 yeah I’ve had my iPhone 12 a month and so disappointed with some of the issues and that’s why I switched to the Pixel 6. I’ve known for years that just because a phone doesn’t get OS updates it’s still usable. It simply means you don’t get the latest android features or most current app updates. I had heard good things about the Nexus line of phones. I’ve been so impressed with the Pixel 6 that switching to it from the iPhone 12 wasn’t a hard decision. 5 years is more than enough support for me if the phone holds up well.

[@AndySimpson1969]

Totally agree, had mine for just over a week after upgrading from the Pixel 4xl, any issues are more Android 12 than with the phone...and we know it's only going to get better over time.

Being a Google Fi customer, my wife & I each got the 6 with 2 years interest free financing and free pairs of Pixel buds. We both had Pixel 3 XL's which we liked but the 6 is on another level. The battery is also on another level. I'm getting two days. I don't need ultra fast charging so the charger from the Pixel 3 is adequate. The finger print sensor is a bit of a downgrade from the 3 but it's a small price to pay.

I would say that spec-wise the OnePlus 9 still is a good value here. You can get it right now at $599 too. Specially with it including the charger and the warp speed is awesome! That's an underrated feature! It includes face unlock and better fingerprint scanner. Pixel 6 wins on software and support though!

A balanced review - I’ve subscribed

[@t0astface]

Came from an S10+, got a 6 Pro and honestly very underwhelmed and even disappointed in many respects. Fingerprint scanner sucks. Touch to wake is unreliable. Launcher is very limiting (changed to Nova, which is fine but not ideal to have to do). Recent apps + multi window is slightly less user friendly (e.g not being able to switch multi-window apps to top/bottom easily). Adaptive theme seems like a gimmick (can't actually tell what the functional purpose is meant to be). Charging / battery life below par. Absence of good lock for Samsung devices has been noticeable for me. Screenshots are a two hand process (double tap on rear of phone helps, but slightly unreliable too). Lack of ability to switch audio outputs is very annoying for me as I do this often. Honestly, I could go on for a while. There at least a dozen more points where I feel this phone has been a downgrade for me. Camera is fun to use though, that's probably the only improvement for me so far. Not hating, just a genuine recount of my experience. Hope it improves. Do agree that this is the best value for money Android phone on the market, but is it the best? Far from it as of today.

[@andyH_England]

The better battery life on the Pixel 6 is no doubt down to the lower resolution display, which will make a circa 12% saving compared to the Pixel 6 Pro QHD. That 12% will likely be less due to forced 90Hz, though kept at 60Hz that 12% will remain. My fav part of the Pixel 6 Pro is the 4X zoom camera and that is a big loss by downgrading to the Pixel 6.

[@eddiehoang7066]

For a difference of $300 , I can live without the 4x zoom camera. That price to performance on the Pixel 6 is outstanding.

[@LOUISVILLECARDINALS]

Pixel 6 is just as good as the pro model in performance that extra 300 is not worth it

[@Its-Just-Zip]

Having a lot of fun with my Pixel 6, the design of this phone is probably what the pro should have been in my personal opinion. The screen is good (great even for the price), the camera is as good as ever (the larger form factor on the sensor is my favorite thing about that new camera), the fingerprint sensor is temperamental to say the least and I would have liked what ever Samsung is using or even the old reliable capacitive one. My only major annoyances are from Android 12 and the early adopter tax associated with using the new OS. The battery has been a dream for me (turned off what's playing) and it's been a day and a half at least.

I am with TMobile and it did freeze up while I was in the store the rep has the pixel 6 to and he only had an app crash problem. Next no headphone jack. Would be nice. Also power brick. Lastly why do we here in the u.s. have to wait so long if we want the pro version. Is that to sell the regular pixel 6 first then the pro later. Yes I know back up time for waiting is not good so most people say or opt for the pixel 6 and pass on the pro because of waiting. Also speaking of the pixel pro. Even the reps have not seen a pixel pro in hand. None to display in store. Wow TMobile. Anyway the pixel is a great product and very good and fast. Hopefully battery life gets better. I know it will my old v60 had an adaptive battery based on use and yes the adaptive battery got better over time. So on the pixel it will just be patient.

I care more about emulation than I do about cameras in which the improvements from photos are very tiny. With emulation, the GPU you choose is going to matter a lot in a few short years. Tensor has a GPU on par to SD855.

Dude quit complaining the battery life is fine and the viewing angles are fine you don't look at your phone from different angles just use the phone. Also the Bezzles are fine they're not big, have you seen the iPhone the bezzles are huge so no the Bezzles are fine you're just coming up with things to complain about as if a perfect phone exists

[@gcg8187]

It's the $600, it's amazing for the money. How about we be thankful for all the amazing shit in our lives

With adaptive battery it should get better over time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I've had a Google phone for the last 8 years (Nexus 5, Nexus 5X, Pixel 2 XL and currently a Pixel 5). By far the biggest let down of any feature Google has ever released in "adaptive battery". It doesn't learn shit. Turn in off, turn it on, give it time to "learn" your usage or don't. It doesn't matter. Either way no difference. Most overrated "feature" ever. 🤣🤣🤣

I don't know what music you are playing in the background of your video, but the barely audible female singer in it is very distracting with headphones on.

I agree with you but Android 12 needs a little love. And what I mean by that is fix a few little things and this would be the best phone on the market hands down

[@netcalibur]

Love it. But can't to not hate its fingerprint scanner, it pisses me off every single time

[@jjakkad]

Would choose P6 Pro if didn't had that annoying curved screen.

[@RetroKids29]

My 6 pro on the way 🥶🥶

My concerns with Pixel 6: * Major: a slow in-display optical fingerprint sensor is a big step backward. Pixel phones should either stick with practical and reliable fingerprint sensor at the back, or switch to ultrasonic scanner. * Major: adding a glass back is not practical for day to day use. Pixel phones should use Aluminium back like Pixel5, or use high quality plastic. * Medium: Avoid camera bumps, or make the bumps smooth. It hurts the fingers. * Medium: Release Pixel non-pro in the smaller size, between 5.8-inch and 6.1-inch. You're competing with non-Pro iPhones. * Minor: Bring back the free photo storage with Google Photos for Pixel fans? I hope Pixel6a or Pixel7 fulfills some requests from this wishlist.

Tensor 2 if based on Exynos again should be amazing since Samsung is teaming up with AMD. Tensor is too weak. No wonder Google priced the 6 at $599. Tensor is not a 2021 flagship SoC. Don't be fooled. Wait for Tensor 2.

[@andyH_England]

The Tensor 1 is based on the 2020 Exynos and Google added an extra performance core to keep it up with 2021 phones. They used a near two year old chip to save money to get to the price point. The Tensor 2 is likely based on the current Exynos, not next year's, though Google could still use the xAMD GPU if allowed by AMD. However, that is doubtful, so likely Tensor 2 will be a way behind in pure performance but with the Google magic maybe not so much for day to day stuff.

[@kyleb3293]

Erm, can ya kiss Google's butt anymore? Some of those shortcomings would be deal breakers on other devices but the pixel? No big deal... 🤣

[@kwelitysoul]

And to think I ALMOST got a 13 mini lol

[@parthdoshi5076]

same here lol

[@Venom198518]

I hate when reviewers sugar coat sh!t so they can continue to get free review units. Say the Charging speed for the pixel 6 is garbage when compared to the 1+. Simple. You wanna say shower to comparable phones. Grow some balls

[@rayvionjohnson2126]

I really like my pixel 6 sorta seafoam 😏

[@abrealgaming5649]

Anyone else getting a consistent crash on KZbin?

[@abrealgaming5649]

I absolutely adore this phone but the constant KZbin crash as well as that awful garbage fingerprint sensor damn near make me want to return it

[@JonSuejoj]

Uninstall the update for the KZbin app

[@arun1775]

Damn battery performance is erratic af w.r.t other reviewers 😑

[@Pak1947KHI]

I'll pass
