I really like the phone. Coming from a pixel 3a, it's pretty familiar. The biggest drawback is the fingerprint reader. Didn't have near the issues with the 3a reader that I do with the 6. Seems it doesn't pick it up as well being under the screen instead of a dedicated reader on the back. Other than that, I really like the phone.
So far it is a great phone. I have loved the Pixel line, but let's face it, not all of them have been phone of the year contenders. I get all day battery life. It has been more than quick enough for all my games, and other tasks. I don't have to worry about any shortage of memory leading to app crashes, or closed background tasks. The camera's, and the camera software is truly top notch. And the build quality feels, and looks as good as the phones costing hundreds more. My only issue isn't really it's fault. It's that it's just too large for my preferences. If there was a phone in this lineup with the size of the Pixel 4a, or 5, it'd be everything I could want.
Like the phone, hard to get use to from previous phone, but getting there. Gave it a 4 because of no facial recognition. Good, but not great, battery life. Feels good in hand with a case, but slippery without case. Have only had this phone for 2 weeks, so might feel different later.
