Google knocked this one out of the park. Construction is high quality, the phone feels heavy, but in a good way. I want to rock it without a case, but it is quite slippery.. In fact, It slipped off the table and onto the floor one time.Android 12 is very fluid and intuitive, with nice new features and implementation. The voice recognition is incredible.The camera is excellent as always, even better than my Pixel 4 XL. I like the addition of the wide-angle lens, But do wish it had a better zoom lens, like a 5X or something.Screen is clear and bright. Its a smooth 90hz but has a feature that slows it down when that speed is not needed to save battery.Battery life has been great. Easily lasting all day. I usually end with about 25%. My usage is medium to heavy. One downside of the phone is the fingerprint sensor. I like that it's embedded behind the display, but it's pretty slow and fails about 30% of the time. Overall great phone, great value. Get it.
I'm enjoying my new Pixel 6 but I do agree with all of the previous reviews regarding the fingerprint sensor. This feature needs to improve. On any given day, I'm going through at least 7 or 10 tries without being able to log in with any of the four fingers that I have programmed. We'll see what any future update brings. For now, I'm content.
I gave it 3 stars as the phone and operating system are very new at least to me and are taking quite some time to get all the settings set. Also the screen navigation is taking some adjustment on my part.
The pixel 6 is a little larger than I'd like but manageable. Noticeably heavier than my pixel 3a I am coming from. Definitely responsive enough for me. Sadly once I added a screen protector the fingerprint reader stopped working (despite enabling higher sensitivity and reregistering my finger) which seems to be a common complaint across all the screen protectors I considered. The camera is very good with features like magic eraser that may be useful but definitely has limitations. Overall pleased with a few nitpicks
I admit...I'm a little older and I had a Pixel 2 that died on me after 7 years let's get that out there!! This one is too complicated for me...I really still can't go backwards in my screen or get to my home page and trying to read the instructions on my phone VS a owners booklet or guide just makes no sense to me. I believe I'm going to return this and go in a different direction as far as a phone. Just my thoughts as I have the phone exactly 7 days
