Writing this on ma new Pixel 6 Pro. Phone is awesome and fluid. Fingerprint sensor is great as well. I prefer the screen location as opposed to the rear position. Thanks Pixel Team (HTC squad) for an awesome product. Love the phone and design. Looks even better in person. The pictures are awesome from this 6Pro as well. Thanks for giving do many options for customizations as well. The voice functions are great as well. Just a few tweaks: let's add face unlock, make the phone use more of it's hardware (camera sensors) rather than software, take video up a notch to be king in photo and video, add some climatic focus. Even without those this P6P is a beast of a phone. Adding the suggested features would put it in another realm.
I'm not a professional. I moved up from a Pixel 3XL, which I loved, to this phone which of course has the same Android operating system, but is a little bigger and, in my opinion, easier to handle. I love the screen that curves to the sides, and that it's not quite as round on the sides as the 3XL. I like the new square iPhone, it seems easier to hang on to (friends have them), and this is more like that than the 3XL. The camera for me has a little bit of a learning curve. I've taken some blurry photos, but the ones that are crisp are really beautiful. I'm really happy with this phone!
I have had the phone for a week and I am so glad I bought it. I love photography and this phone is a game changer for me. Sad but my old SLR was a great companion for many years but now I have all tricks of the trade in a much lighter and smaller container. At 83 I am no longer saying " now in the old days bla bla, bla but instead wow I have a darkroom, a SLR and a huge telephoto in a little tiny cigarette size package? that's not just great. It's Epic.
It's been barely a week, and I would say the phone has been working as advertised. It's a very user friendly device easy to use. This phone is not just smart, it's very smart.
I'm not a techy so this won't be too in-depth. I miss the fingerprint on the back of the phone. It helped with 1 hand use, makes certain cases/screen protectors more effective since most need a hole punched on them to accommodate the on-screen fingerprint scanner and did seem to work much easier. Otherwise, it is what you would expect. I haven't dove into all of the camera features yet but is a big reason why I chose pixel (and am anti-apple) I do miss a home button too. I find myself swiping up on some apps 3 or 4 times before it will close the app, and I am still not sure if all my apps are open in the background (thereby wasting the battery) or closed once I am able to swipe up successfully. Kinda wish the camera part was flush with the phone as well; too many opps to catch on something and drop it though it's not as much of an issue once in a case vs no case. Otherwise it is as expected, much like any other pixel I have owned and similar to Samsung as well. Not perfect but its good
So much like an iPhone that I returned it. No home button, awkward navigation. Phone is too long. Mouth Mike is too far from mouth or speaker too far from ear. Would be fine on speaker but not for normal conversation. I've had several pixels I bought this one due to brand loyalty. Sorry yall lost me to Samsung s21.
