The battery in that device sets the standard, but apart from that, I would take my personal P6 Pro over the iPhone any day of the week and twice on Sunday. The OS is smooth, the cameras are pretty damn good.....and will likely improve over time with software updates. The Pixel is definitely worth picking up.

I know a lot of people have criticized the Pixel 6 series. Having had mine since 26th October, the pros outweigh the cons. However, I have discovered the cameras Achilles' heel - nightscape mode with flashing LED lights during a visit to a winter light trail event. What I can only describe are black bands that appeared during the live preview and actual images and videos. It reminded me of taking slow motion videos in poor light. My missus took pictures and videos on her Note 9 and had none of these problems. I had my GoPro 8 with me and that had no problems either.

Would love it if you could include a test on your android reviews of what the notification delays are like. Most android phones unfortunately suffer from it since Android 10, especially when on WiFi and the phone has entered deep sleep. Put the phone down for 10 minutes while on wifi and then send an email to yourself from another device and see how long it takes gmail to pop up a notification, for instance. Haven't found any reviewers doing this even though it's such an issue on so many phone models.

8:32 Flashing Pixel Experience Rom with Android 12 on my $130 phone brought me awesome results... And those differences from Android 11 to 12 are seriously big... Especially, app opening, installing and the massive upgrade, the boot time... Google has definately done a great job with Android 12 in terms of optimising their software further. It brought down system CPU and RAM usage too... So a big plus in terms of performance... 6:37 Agree with you on that... Some of the Android 12 features look a little bigger and as you said, "in your face"... Not a big fan... But Material You compensates for that, atleast for the most part... P.S.

Haptics are the first thing I turn off yet on the Pixel I love them. My biggest gripes are the At A Glance which is redundant and uses way to much space. I'm a minimalist and keep no app icons on my homescreen. Only the ones in the bar and a clock app so the At A Glance really bugs me

Hey man, let me start saying that I do really like your channel and most of your videos. While I've never used the Pixel 6pro nor the iPhone 13pro, this video felt too much like you comparing the Pixel to the iPhone, instead of being a "review" of the PIxel after XX amount of time, and while I understand you feel like comparing the two, you should also mention that, the iPhone 13 pro costs $XXX more than the Pixel, because that puts things to perspective. I feel it would have been better or "fair" to compare the Pixel to other Galaxy or OnePlus phones that do cost about the same ($100+ or -$100 than the Pixel) to put things into perspective. That's just my 2 cents, I mean no harm and hope you continue bringing such great content to your community. Cheers from Bolivia

Also the stripped down version of Android is so bare bones I have no idea how they get away with calling this flagship.
