After a maddening few days, I double-registered my thumbprints and it worked nearly every time. It was frustrating and not a very good experience. Under the screen is a fingerprint reader, which at first worked for me half of the time. The front is covered in Gorilla Glass Victus. The resolution is good, but the Pixel 6 Pro's is better. For comparison's sake, it reminds me a bit of the iPhone XR and iPhone 11, which also had similar bezels and rounded sides, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. There's an hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera and the screen is flat with thick, Sharpie-like bezels that bleed into the matte-finish aluminum sides. It can be set to automatically switch from 60Hz to 90Hz depending on the content onscreen. The Pixel 6 has a 6.4-inch, 1080p screen. The Pixel 6's bold two-tone design makes me swoon If you're looking for an in-depth look at the Google Pixel 6 Pro, check out the review my colleague Andy Hoyle wrote.Īt $599, the Google Pixel 6 is one of the best phones you can buy. For that price, I can't think of a better phone to recommend right now. The Pixel 6 starts at $599 (£599, AU$999) and comes with 128GB of storage. I spent over a week with the new phone and it lives up to a lot of the hype. This is the Pixel phone I always wanted from Google. Now that Google has improved everything in, on and around the Pixel, is it ready for its championship? (I promise that's the last Bulls reference.) In short, yes. It's called Pixel Pass and costs $45 a month for two years.Įven the Pixel's crown jewel - its cameras - got upgraded lenses and hardware that's more premium. And Google even created a subscription program a la Apple's iPhone Upgrade program.
In the US, the Pixel 6 is available both through Google and all major carriers. Google extended its three years of OS and security updates to five. Tensor opens up a slew of new software features Google wouldn't have been able to add using a different processor.
This allows the Pixel 6 to do computations and AI more securely and quickly on the phone than constantly using the cloud. Instead of powering the phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, Google made its own chip: Tensor. It's like when the Bulls decided to build a team around Jordan to help him win championships. The Pixel 6 is an attempt to build the phone up to be more successful and appealing. It reminds me of the early days when Michael Jordan joined the Chicago Bulls but they weren't winning championships yet. So what's the problem? Well, in short, Pixel phones haven't sold well.
