Let me start by saying that I love Google pixel & Google Products. This phone is Beautifully Like most High end Phones in this day in age. The screen is large and Beautiful But Not Bright enough. So I THINK? I speak for most of us when I say we love Pixel for two things Cameras and Software Android purity with special Google assistant Features exclusively for the pixel. And was I ever excited For my pixel 6 pro. Decent price bigger Cameras Battery and new assistant features Due to Google own First of it kind processing power. Well as it turns out I was in for a rude awakening! First Software Was glitchey nothing but crashes stuttering Random Reboots and force closed apps. Battery life was horrific with only giving me about a half a day with battery-saving features ... MoreLet me start by saying that I love Google pixel & Google Products. This phone is Beautifully Like most High end Phones in this day in age. The screen is large and Beautiful But Not Bright enough. So I THINK? I speak for most of us when I say we love Pixel for two things Cameras and Software Android purity with special Google assistant Features exclusively for the pixel. And was I ever excited For my pixel 6 pro. Decent price bigger Cameras Battery and new assistant features Due to Google own First of it kind processing power. Well as it turns out I was in for a rude awakening! First Software Was glitchey nothing but crashes stuttering Random Reboots and force closed apps. Battery life was horrific with only giving me about a half a day with battery-saving features on. The screen full of glitches not responding to touch horrific fingerprint sensor and for some reason Google decided to give us no type face unlock. Cameras oh the cameras? What happened with the cameras washed out awful-looking photos. Once they go through processing & google algorithm edited them. it would help a bit but I can't figure out how these new sensors can even come close to their old quarter of the size sensors? The phone itself looks nice but feels cheap it actually feels Hollow of course I know it's not but when you tap on the screen it's like tapping on a hollow piece of plastic. Next this phone actually called the police 4 times on its own sitting on my counter decides to call the police. This phone is literally just glitch after glitch in for a company that literally build operating systems this is unacceptable how you get it through time we can get software updates in it might get better however I was not willing to take the risk and this is the first phone I have actually ever returned. Another thing that just astounded me was the lack of quality audio this device puts out through Bluetooth literally I can connect this to one of my speakers and it sounds atrocious I can disconnect it connect my Samsung S21 Ultra and it sounds amazing. The worst part is a phone should be able to make calls and do it well 90% of a time I could not even get a signal from my provider I live in a big city where I typically get amazing signal through Verizon this phone spent most of its time with one bar if that never 5G. Over a two-week span of time I kept trying to talk myself into liking this phone I kept telling myself it's a pixel it's amazing it's got great cameras it's got cool features through the Google Assistant but I realized I was just lying to myself this phone was not ready to be released and should be recalled and fixed Google's processor is garbage and I believe this phone will not make it through a year because that processor will not hold up. Truly first year of anything is typically not good in the end anyway but I was expecting more. I actually review technology for a living planned on doing a YouTube video on this phone the phone was so bad I didn't even bother here's another thing I wanted to point out we always talk about the camera of a pixel and how great photos are but what about the video quality this thing is awful it just doesn't even come close to the S21 Ultra when it comes to recording video I know that there's no 8K on this like the S21 Ultra and I can live with that but the wide-angle lens is a joke and the quality just is not what it should be. Anyway I can go on and on but do yourself a favor pass on this phone do not let the fact that they're hard to get because of stock issue trick you into thinking you want this phone trust me when I say you don't and I truly believe most people are doing what I did telling themselves it's good when they're having nothing but problems their self.

I upgraded from a Pixel Pro 2 to the Pixel Pro 6. While most of the specifications were an upgrade, there are a number of user experience issues that cause a significant dip in quality of life. Despite its failing battery, I often find myself wishing to return to the Pixel Pro 2, even 18 months later, which is not a ringing endorsement of the Pixel Pro 6.I've long been a fan of the stock Android experience as offered by Google. However the Pixel 6 Pro continues an unfortunate trend in Google's inability to provide a satisfying hardware experience. I'm uncertain if my next phone will be a Pixel.The Good:- Tensor seems to be a solid chip.- The camera, as per the usual on a Pixel, is really good. The telephoto in particular is a great feature. Plus Google's ... MoreI upgraded from a Pixel Pro 2 to the Pixel Pro 6.

However the Pixel 6 Pro continues an unfortunate trend in Google's inability to provide a satisfying hardware experience. I'm uncertain if my next phone will be a Pixel.The Good:- Tensor seems to be a solid chip.- The camera, as per the usual on a Pixel, is really good. The telephoto in particular is a great feature. Plus Google's software does a great job in post.- Nice screen.The Bad:- The battery life could be better. Started out decent and quickly lost capacity. Might be less of an issue if it charged quicker.- Performance isn't always great, and when it's not great, it's very distracting.- Occasionally, during a call while on speaker or Bluetooth, the proximity sensor will not allow the user to use the screen as it turns off the display before your finger can make contact.- Strange performance issues pop up intermittently and randomly, such as the keyboard's inability to accept input.The Ugly:- The in-screen fingerprint sensor isn't just a big step back from previous ultrasonic sensors, despite Google's attempts to patch, it's bad design. The rear-mounted fingerprint scanner on the Pixel 2 was in a better, more ergonomic position, and not only worked, but worked quickly and almost always on the first try. The Pixel 6's optical in-screen sensor doesn't work most of the time.

Phone has very speedy software as any phone in the past few years should have. Has excellent cameras, that easily still compete with the best camera phones of 2022 (as there were minimal improvements). Also, pixel specific features such as Spam call filter, and some photo app features are quite useful. Screen is of very good quality and easily gets bright enough for daytime use.Unfortunately, the one downfall of this phone are the network issues: my unit is a Verizon phone that I got on a payment plan for the high trade in, which is terrible because I'm basically stuck with it until it's paid off over 2 years or I will lose a good amount of the trade in credits.

As many have pointed out, the phone's connection to network is inconsistent and i regularly will see my signal drop to like 1 bar and suddenly have good signal again (supposedly). Also, in my work area (where verizon's coverage is spotty) I regularly struggle to get any signal at all and speeds are very slow in most of the parking area..I compared this to an older oneplus 7 pro which had significantly stronger signal everywhere and faster speeds. Google seems hesitant to offer any help other than "it may be a software issue," pretty disappointed overall that they aren't just accepting their mistake with the outdated modem and offering a better solution for many people. May just end going to a new brand soon, we'll see..
