I have always been an Android guy(except when my job got me an iPhone for 2 years). Every Android has been a Samsung and loved them. When it was time to upgrade this year, I found that the Samsung I wanted was on "Forever Backorder". So I said... Lets try the Pixel! Very refreshing change. Love the Pixel 6 Pro! Is it perfect? No! Is it worth the Money? Absolutely! A refreshing change for sure!
The negative reviews were overblown. I'm very happy with this phone. I'm coming from Nokia, Samsung, Apple, and the pixel 4... In that order. And I would buy it again.
I've truly enjoyed using my Pixel 6 Pro over the past week- all of my apps and settings easily migrated to my new device. The size of the pro is perfect for my hands, and the quality of the camera (along with having night sight) is phenomenal. The phone is super top-heavy, making it easy to tip over if upright in your hands. The second day I had it, the phone tipped over onto tile (about a 4 inch drop) and cracked the top-left corner of the phone. It didn't help that the case I ordered hadn't been delivered yet. Now that I have a case, at least it covers the crack, I suppose.
Screen vulnerable, faulty design, or weak. Case, no drop... Crack. Battery doesn't last very long, similar to an old 4a5G (my pervious). Battery takes forever to charge, requires my highest wattage charger to get to 100% before eternity. I don't recommend.. YET. A fan of Pixels, I'm sure software issues will get mitigated. The screen, on the other hand....
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
