Best pixel yet, but not perfect

I really think this is the best pixel to date.... I have 2 issues with the pro. 1- the fingerprint reader is really finicky. I have a trouble getting it to read my right thumb. All other programmed fingers work great. Even after most recent update and turning on extra touch sensitivity. 2- battery life. Battery life is ok... Way better than my pixel 4xl. Maybe it will get better with time and adaptive battery... We shall see.
The phone makes calls but the Bluetooth doesn't always connect and often disconnects for no reason leaving you wondering where your music or call went to. It's especially frustrating since I wear hearing aids. Hoping that a software patch is coming to fix it soon. Video records with such horrible sound that it's basically useless. I wish I had kept my pixel 3xl. I loved that phone!
Overall the phone is great except the battery life and how fast it drains. I had my Pixel 4XL for 2 years use the same way same apps at work for 10 hours and still go home with 60 - 70% battery left. On the new Pixel 6 pro I am going home with 35 -40 % battery. Especially when you compare 3800 mAh to 5003 mAh. I have tried to go from 5g to 4g LTE for a day to see the difference, it gained 10% battery life. Maybe its multiple things like 5G plus Android 12 combo with larger screen. Not sure but I hate to change my phone every night.
Great looking phone but phone calls are chopping always cutting in and out even with 5G. It's suppose to have gorilla class but got a bad scratch in the screen from being in my pocket and all i do is teach. My last issue would have to be the screen it's flexes inward a lot doesn't feel sturdy or solid pressing on it with a small force feels like it's going to break
Overall good phone. I have a few issues. Battery performance is really underwhelming. Screen needs to be little brighter. Android 12 has bugs. Some Applications crashes. Hopefully it will be fixed in future updates. Fingerprint sensor is good. Not as bad as portrayed by other reviews. One feature that I miss is to be able to duplicate apps for multiple accounts. For example Samsung has secure folder. Why not google? I have a two different banking accounts and I want to install two different applications.
