      I have the Cloudy White Pro and I love it quite a lot, but I feel like the top portion isn't quite as grey as I thought it would be. I tried a few skins for the top portion but couldn't get any of them to work. Overall, it's a really great phone.

    Best way to solve the fingerprint sensor being slow is to add the same finger to your finger list more than once. Essentially giving the phone more data to quickly capture your finger. It's worked great on mine. Cheers!

    My theory about the US-based reviewer's battery life experience as compared to yours: the US-based Pixel 6 Pro was trying to pull mmWave cell signal whilst your UK-based P6P was pulling Sub-6 signal, which (I believe) consumes less power.

      @mrmiralg 3 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      I'm located in the USA as well - was having awful battery life. I live in a big city and was hoping that 5G would be no issue. I was wrong. After forcing LTE, I've had great battery life and no complaints whatsoever. To be fair, I had the same 5G battery suck issue with my OP8 Pro. It's unfortunate.
      I am running Nova launcher and I wonder if that sucks more battery than the stock launcher.

    • @o_nazim
      @o_nazim 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I can't be bothered with 5G at all, and have since turned it off. My battery lasts about a day with regular usage (photos, navigation, social media, music). I am starting to try it out now with working from home to see how much minimal usage consumes.

    • @on2vegas976
      @on2vegas976 3 ปีที่แล้ว +15

      People seem to be forgetting that the same exact thing happened when LTE first launched. It wasn't widespread so the early phones with the radios were searching for signal and killing the battery. Going to be some time before this is resolved. The phone is future-proof. People should just turn off 5G for now and it's more readily available, turn it back.

      @Wavieraxe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      When I got mine the battery life was surprisingly bad and barely lasted a day. However, I noticed it's gotten better after a few weeks. I think it's got an adaptive battery algorithm that monitors your usage and then adjusts with time. I'm now getting a day and half of battery life with moderate use.

    • @PadyEos
      @PadyEos 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      First 3 days battery life was ok-ish. 5-6 hours screen on time and would last from 95% to 15% for 24 hours. From the 4th day I have 9-10 hours screen on time and I can charge it every day and a half. I don't game on the phone but the rest is normal usage.

    My biggest gripes are, VERY slow charging, drops cellular connection on WIFI, and it freezes once in a while. But I feel software updates will resolve most of those. I got a Galaxy Watch4 Classic working with ECG and Blood Pressure with a few tweaks and enjoying the experience a lot. Overall I am extremely happy and am putting my iPhone 12 Pro max and Apple Watch Series 5 up for sale today. BTW I have a skin condition that makes my finger pads peel but havent had any issues with the Finger print unlock. 9.5 Hours SOT with 5G disabled.

    Not being funny but I think fingerprint readers are perfectly positioned on the back, failing that the power button. In screen readers are slower as you can tap the reader on the back as you take your phone out of your pocket when they're on the back of your phone.
    I can't recall consumers crying our for these in screen readers and they only became a thing so phone manufacturers could stand out from their competitors. "Hey look what our phone does, isn't it cool?"

    I believe they called it an adaptive battery. It learns your phone usage and uses the battery accordingly. The battery might be mediocre out of the box. However, when you set up and use the phone for some time, the battery lasts all day. My recent day with Pixel 6 Pro:
    I took over a hundred fifty photos of products for sale throughout 4-5 hrs. Then manually edited them all through my pixel. After that, I took over 15 videos and also used the phone to edit them. Then I worked on some advertisement photo editing through various phone apps. In between checking the emails, Instagram, googling, a little bit of TH-cam etc. In the end, I had over 60% battery left.

    Have to say, I've recently got a Pixel 6 Pro after my beloved Huawei P30 Pro finally died (dead wifi card/jobby) after 2.5 years of reliable service. I've gone from the best phone I've ever had, to the worst - so much so, that I'm returning the phone to EE. The camera frequently freezes - when opening the camera and clicking the x4 zoom - I have to restart the phone as it just refuses to do anything. A couple of occasions it wouldn't even answer a call. Last weekend my wife and I were out walking for a few hours, and her iPhone 11 Pro Max (also 2.5 yrs old) battery lasted as long, if not longer than my 1 month old Pixel 6 Pro.

    I have the 6 Pro, in the UK in an area with poor 4 and 5g reception, so I disabled 5g and 120hz as I absolutely cannot tell the difference, over 16hrs off charge I average 5.5 house SOT with 20% battery remaining which is plenty good enough for me. As for the fingerprint sensor, if I deliberately place either thumb and leave it there it averages a successful read 90% of the time, it's definitely not the quickest but for me it's pretty reliable if you don't casually plonk your digit at it.

      I've also got the P30 Pro. And if it weren't for the fact I broke my screen, I would not be upgrading. Alas, I have, so I will. Still trying to work out whether I should be cheap and go for the OnePlus Nord 2, since I do appreciate fast charging, or whether I should be extravagant and go for the Pixel 6 Pro, since I can now no longer live without my telephoto lens. That I use once a quarter.

    There is a problem with the "battery" on the pixel 6 Pro. It looks as though there is something with the camera where occasionally you will burn battery power. It has happened to be on two occasions. On both occasions I found my power was on 10-12% when it should have been around about 90% and the camera app had eaten 80% of the battery power in the last 2 hours (while not in use). Rebooting the phone resolved it but it's definitely there.

    I use my pixel 6 pro all day all the time. My screen on time is always around 8 hours a day with 16 hours stand by time. Most of the time I can get through the whole day. Sometimes I'll need about 10 minute quick charge to get through the rest of the day. This is my first ever actual all day battery. My pixel 3 in it's 2nd full year of use needed to be charged frequently. Up to 3 times a day to make it through the day.

    Hi Uncle Chris,
    I am absolutely loving my Google Pixel 6 pro and have found it to be a really nice experience. I do really love the build, as a person who has only had mid range phones in the past for the most part, it is just so nice to fondle. The only two things I am not a fan of is the finger print reader which works but sometimes I have to give it a few goes. I think that is mainly because as a vision impaired person there is no tactile indication of the finger print reader. it does tell you that you are touching it when you find it but I wish they had put it on the power button. The second minor gripe is the fact it takes so long to charge. Takes me over one and a half ours from 20%, and that is with the charging brick I bought from Google. Still over all I really love this phone and am very happy with it.

    Just got the Pixel 6 in Sorta Seafoam. A very nice phone indeed. The camera performed well at a pub gig the other night, clean crisp photos even in the mixed on stage lighting.
    The fingerprint sensor works okay, nowhere near as good as the old rear fingerprint sensor or face unlock though.
    The only thing I miss from my 4xl is the squeeze for GA which I found I used quite a bit.
    The only bug I've found is that when using the phone to phone transfer on set up is the notification sound has stuck to what was on my 4xl and is impossible to change using the normal settings route.

    5:08 actually Google Pixel 6 Pro display doesn't drop to 10 hz, you can check it by activate the "show refresh rate" in the Developer options. The screen will always using 120hz when you start swiping the screen, and it will drop to 60hz when you are not using it.

    I just got my Pixel 6 Pro in this week, but so far I'm loving it! The one gripe I have with it (and this is just me nitpicking and slightly spoiled by Samsung) is that there is no way to make folders in the app drawer without using another launcher (which defeats the purpose of getting a Pixel in the first place IMO).
    I've been a lifelong Samsung Galaxy user, and loved having similar apps or apps by the same company in their own respective folders in the app drawer. I know you can make folders on the home screen, but I don't want my home screen cluttered with app icons like an iPhone. Lol.

    I'm gonna say battery 🔋 is OK. Was expecting wayyy better , getting a bigger battery on the pro. It's been a week for me with this model. I've even turned off the 5G one day and left the smooth display on see if battery would improve. It did, but nothing crazy. The next day I turned off smooth display and left 5G on, an the battery was better than with the smooth display on and 5G turned off. So basically I'm going from 630AM at 100% and about 4PM I'm down to 15% . So I need to charge the phone back up to last me till end of day. Im staying positive that maybe software or adaptive battery makes a significant improvement. Cus in my case, I'm almost thinking of returning this phone back.

    Also crappy optical fingerprint sensors are a step back compared to dedicated sensors like on the 4A 5G and even the Solo sensor of the 4XL. You can save 5 finger prints - I always register my dominant hands' thumb 3 times and the other thumb 2 times. It makes it much more reliable 👍🏻

    Its all about the Camera for the pixel 6 and the 6 pro.
    It has one of the largest sensors available on a phone - alongside the Xiaomi Mi pro's at almost 3/4 of 1 inch.
    That's about 60% larger than that on the iphone 13 and Samsung S22s. Its even larger than the "1 inch" Sony Xperia Pro-i camera as that only actually uses 60% of the sensor.
    They have best in class physical cameras on any current smartphone. The computational assistance is great, but whether its the best is subjective. However, you can shoot raw unlike on iPhone so overall its probably the best phone for photography.

Pixel 6 in store. Didn't have my colour of choice (that weird white one) but they had it in black which was good enough for me.
    Barely used it however I absolutely adore the thing, this is my first flagship smartphone however I have used some flagships for short periods of time in the past. I am EXTREMELY impressed. Maybe it's because I like the stock android experience (no longer have to flash Pixel experience, yay) but in general I think it's a decent phone. Not huge, not small, not heavy, not light, everything just seems right.... Looks good too!
