Ғылым және технология
The Pixel 6 and 6 Pro have now been out and in the wild for over three months, so I thought it was time to put them up against each other in a head to head comparison.
Enjoy!

I was one of the "lucky" ones who bought my Pixel 6 thru Google, unlocked, and had ALL the updates successfully. I have had NO issues (other than registering my same fingerprint a couple of times to get that to work; however, I also have the phone paired with my Fitbit so that it is unlocked per my home location and Fitbit). The December one came and no problems; and now I have thru my Carrier and Google the January update (a bit back), also with no problems. I run NOVA 7 Launcher, but have the Pixel as backup, switching to it to do wallpapers/colors, etc., then back to NOVA. I feel the 6 is a fine deal per the money, and am quite happy with it. Thanks for your coverage over time.

Great video. I think I'm gonna end up going regular Pixel 6 from my S21 soon. Mainly for the Android experience, otherwise this S21 has been shockingly good
Where do you get these really nice wallpapers on your phones ?
My son has the Pro. I do envy the display on the pro, it's gorgeous..happy with my 6 tho
I have had very few issues with the Pixel 6 other than general UI inconsistencies within Android 12. It does kind of cheapen the experience when Google, the provider of Android can't even get the UI to look right all of the time. The keyboard occasionally persists on the home screen, and occasionally the keyboard appears crunched. Not to mention the fact that often if you change the wallpaper the auto theme doesn't change color to the new extracted colors from it.
God, the graphics and b-roll this channel pumps out are beautiful! I’m going to switch from iPhone, and I’m going to 6 Pro, I just loooove those glossy rails!
Great video mate I absolutely love my Pixel 6 it's been the best device I've owned in years. It makes me wish I started using Pixel devices sooner even if they weren't as polished as the 6.

I currently switched over to the p6pro when I had my lg v30 for 5 years. Jesus man what a difference. The shipping took long but over all the phone has given me no issues whatsoever and has been the fastest device I've ever owned to date.

I've rooted my Pixel 6 thanks mostly to your video and it has totally changed my life (phone wise anyways lol). I've been able to fix nearly every minor issue I'd been having with android 12 and turn this thing into a near perfect device. Using quickswitch, hiding my navbar, more volume steps, repainter for custom colours, the whole works. I think the only thing I'm waiting on is for lawnchair 12 to add more features because it's awfully bare, and I can't even set individual app icons? Either way, thanks a million.

On my 3rd day with the pixel 6, from an s21+, and this phone is so much better. The software just feels amazing compared to one UI. There's no difference between 90 and 120hz and the battery life is absolutely amazing. Yesterday I got over 8 hours of sot with some mk mobile and clash of clans, downloading thousands of songs on Spotify and watching lots of KZread. The camera has been more than enough, telephoto doesn't make a difference for me.

Verizon was charging $100 more for the pixel 6 so it was only a $200 jump from the 6 to the 6 pro, that's too close in price to not get the pro version for me.

I have also gotten used to the size despite previously swearing that I would never own a phone over 6".

Great vid. I agree as I'm watching on my pixel 6.
I can live with the inferior selfie camera as I've gotten pretty good at simply turning the phone around and using the main sensor and since there's the wide angle it gives some extra cushion with the needing to guess with the pointing and shooting. The lack of a telephoto lens on the other hand...that hurts. I don't think I can justify getting the bigger and more expensive phone just for the telephoto but damn I'mma miss it! Come on Google, I'm ok with all the other trade-offs but next time let us have the telephoto lens!

I agree, for the markup for almost 400 Dollars (And also Euros - no difference there for some reason) its just not that worth it. It seems the 6 Pro just outshines its Pro version in the most key aspects by far, which is a bummer, but also a blessing since it saves you 300 Buckeroonies. Nice. Thank you for this very entertaining and very honest review.

You're lucky to even have this phone, I pre-ordered the 6Pro on October 22nd (two days after it became available to preorder) and I am yet to receive it, the delivery date just keeps being pushed back, and back and back. Initially it was December 2nd, now it's February 3rd. No amount of complaining gets me anywhere, its a stock issue apparently. I just have to question how many people have received their phones when I was in on the bottom floor of preordering and am yet to get the damn phone. At this point I am definitely not going to cancel the order, mainly because I am real curious as to how long it will actually take (and I have a case/protectors sitting here for it).
