Great phone with fatal flaws

6 Pro here. Great phone with fatal flaws. Best Android experience available, hindered by slow charging, abysmal battery life, abysmal RF reception. Must turn off 5g radio not to lose signal everywhere that I previously had signal with my 5g OnePlus 8t. I really wanted to love this phone but it's going back.
Fail to see the hype around this device. It’s a decent device with terrific battery life. Don’t see anything better than the device I upgraded (Samsung Note). The daily deluge of messages, notifications and ads is overwhelming. Is it a top of the line device equal to Samsung
Excellent experience with the phone. The begging the battery drained a little quickly , but i think the adaptive battery got use to my usage and increased battery life. Never really had a problem with the finger sensor. The material theming is only for the primary apps and not third party apps which creates a disjointed look. Just let people download third party theming apps to fix that or material theme everything. The phone screen is great and and responsive. I've had no real issues with the charging being too long. A few times it might taken longer than expected, just observationally. Still getting use to the camera. I think I get in the way of the AI. But overall it takes excellent pictures. I really do enjoy the phone. My prior phone was a Samsung S20 fe which is a good solid phone (minus the screen flashing) but this experience with the 6 pro is so much better.
I have been using the phone for about two weeks. It is huge and I use it with a case. I plan on adding a screen protector but I am not sure how well it will work with the under-display fingerprint reader. The battery drains quickly and the fingerprint reader is very slow at times to read. I captured my two thumbs and twice each to help speed up unlocking. Overall the pictures are great, however, Google stopped giving pixel owners free photo Backup. It is heavy though.
The phone has been fantastic for me. I have no complaints and have run into no bugs/issues so far. I like this phone as much as I loved my Nexus 5X and Pixel 2XL and that's saying a lot because those phones were great.
Had to send the device back because it constantly rebooted. I spent approximately 6 hours to get an RMA. Worst experience I've ever had buying any device. That being said when it worked it was awesome.
