I am absolutely loving my Pixel 6 Pro. 6-8 hrs SOT, amazing screen quality, 5G service is awesome, and the voice typing is really nice. There are a lot of features I'm still getting used to, but the phone is simply breathtaking.
So many issues. FFC is the worst I've ever used out of any smartphone in the last 5 years. Fingerprint sensor is dodgy, though software updates have improved it a bit. Tensor is crap. The phone is snappy, don't get me wrong, but they are using AI to compensate for crap hardware like the cameras. For a flagship phone, this is a joke. My Pixel XL gen 1 took better pictures.
There is a whole lot to love. The pure Android experience, the crazy telephoto, the talk-to-text that types faster than I can speak, the audio sounds like it's coming from inside my head. Then there's the "almosts"The fingerprint sensor didn't really need to be in the screen, the screen didn't need to be curved on the sides. The charging is inexcusable, an adaptive charging setting with a warning message when turned off would suffice (think Tesla Ludacris mode) it's hard to keep this phone aliveI'm still left wondering if the pixel 2xl format will be topped. This will do for now.
Fingerprint scanner ... meh. Usually takes 2 or 3 times to open the lock screen. Work apps such as Outlook take several tries as well. The rear scanner on my 2xl worked flawlessly. I'm not convinced by the optical scanner. Layout of Android 12 again it's ok but I'm not in love with the "Material You" design.That said, having a 2xl, and 4xl previously, I won't be giving my p6p anytime soon. Battery life is great. Screen beautiful. Plenty of memory for all my apps and very responsive. I have an iPhone for work and I would never consider that as my daily driver.
The phone is very buggy. Phone doesn't display the correct batter life on the notification bar it always showing the battery as empty l and I have to check in the settings for the correct batter %.2.Screenshots in dark mode are just dark sceen. 3.While on call sometime the sceen is dark and can't open any other apps. 4.Charging is very slow and battery life is very bad 5. Sometimes the apps force closes
Despite stock and logistics issues with the Pro, I am fortunate to have received my device and have thoroughly enjoyed it so far.The performance is amazing and the hardware is truly premium. Knocked this one out of the park, Google. Best Pixel so far!
