Pixel 6 Pro: First 10 Things To Do!

Ғылым және технология

Our Pixel 6 Pro review (and Pixel 6) will be up soon, but because your phones are arriving shortly, we wanted to give you the First 10 Things To Do video that you deserve. In this Pixel 6 tips and tricks video, we dive into the basics of setup, some security options, wallpaper themes, all of the camera modes, how to use universal search, and where all of the best display options are.
If you picked up a Pixel 6 or Pixel 6 Pro, this is the video to get you started.

    UPDATE ON ASSISTANT TIP: There is still the corner swipe, it's just very buried in Settings>System>Gestures>System navigation>>>then you tap the settings or gear icon next to Gesture Navigation and you'll find a toggle for it. Apologies for missing this.

  • @ClassicalPan

    I have been using a Galaxy S9 for a couple years and love the rear fingerprint reader, as opposed to the one that was located on the home button on my Galaxy S7. I just ordered a Pixel 6 Pro and am hoping I won't find the fingerprint reader to be as bad as some people think it is. I don't use my Bixby button for anything other than telling it to "turn on/off flashlight", but I do that nightly so I hope that it will be simple enough to do on the Pixel 6 Pro without that button. Not a fan of non-expandable storage, but the 256GB model should be fine. Overall, I'm certainly looking forward to getting my new phone, but I will remain cautiously optimistic.

  • @trajectoryunown

    @trajectoryunown

    Жыл бұрын

    ​@@ClassicalPan Honestly, it's not _horrible_ but does take quite some time to start getting used to. When compared to the perfectly convenient positioning and rapid response of the previous models, it's very much lacking. It takes 2-3 times as long or more to register a read, and it isn't as accurate. Though that might have something to do with my screen protector, I'll be danged if I'm gonna get one with a big, honkin' hole in the middle. I've been a lifelong denier of swanky gizmos like fingerprint readers. The Pixel 3 changed my mind, and I found myself wanting to map different programs to most of my digits. With the Pixel 6 Pro, I only use one finger and only for getting through my lock screen and into my password manager. I'm not quite as dissatisfied I was a month ago, but I still fully plan on switching to a Pixel 5 when this is paid off. This is also due to size. Between the inferior fingerprint reader and being just large enough to force me to constantly shift hand positions, it's not a great fit personally. I'm quite fond of the Pixel 3's dimensions but always thought it could be a little larger, so the Pixel 5 seems perfect for me in every regard... once I install a different OS of course.

I live in a fairly rural/suburban area with pretty good cellular service but the 5G system of Fi works fairly well. Those in a larger cellular coverage are like an urban area will be impressed.

    Great overview 2:50 "It's ahh..." actually really good. I primarily used the through glass finger print reader on the last three samsung galaxy phones and this is super fast. One trick to do is add additional finger prints, but do them from the same finger. I find that increases the chances of the phone seeing the print quickly. I've done that for iPhone, Samsung and others.
