Google Pixel 6 vs 6 Pro - Pick The Right One!

- Everyone knows who Google is right? But their phones just haven’t gained the same amount of popularity. They just launched their latest phones, the Google Pixel 6 & 6 Pro! These phones are a big step up. From my first impressions, Google’s got a couple of crazy good devices right here. The one question I’ve been getting from friends and a lot of you guys online is should you spend the extra money to get the pro model. They look pretty similar, but after testing both for over a week now, what are the actual day to day differences. Let’s see if I can help!

My Pixel 6 Pro Review - th-cam.com/video/MEHkAPvmA_w/w-d-xo.html
Hii
Want to ask about sim tray in canada for pixel 6. Is it support 1 physical sim or 2 ??
@@SahotaCJ It supports 1 physical sim. Most Canadian phones are single sim with an e sim option. Dual sim is virtually nonexistent in Canada, not including e sim.
How many phones do you have?
Wow lol 😊
Candy Boutell Cruz love this phone
Finally someone who does an actual review instead of just comparing camera
Yeah to many reviews are just talking about the camera. That would be like buying a desktop computer and talking about just the case.
@@evacody1249 I've even seen a TH-camr make a 20 min video comparing the camera like at that point just go buy a real camera
Yea i feel the same way, this is the video that I have been looking for.
Yet I am here looking for a camera comparison
I don't want to hear about the camera. It's good we get it
Your reviews are always a treat to watch. The energy of your videos is just remarkable. Keep doing what you do!
This channel is so underrated! Keep up the great work
Pixels, I think have always had the Power button on top - They usually had a nice color on the Power button as well
Yeah always been like that
Yup. And I hold my phone with my left and I use my index finger to press them.
I still have my Pixel 2 and the power button is on the side
Yep. I fail to see the issue here. I've heard others complain. Why does the power button get used the most as she says? I never need to use it unless I turn off and on.
Thank you for pointing out the most popular differences in a short amount of time and for your honest opinion at the end. As always, your videos are a “must watch” for me! 👏🏼👌🏼
The pixel always had the power button over the volume button
I've only had one other Pixel, so I wasn't sure. I thought about commenting on that as well. Strangely, there are multiple other reviewers that have mentioned the button placement being odd.
Yea my pixel 3a has the power button above the volume button so I assumed that was normal.
What do you and almost every other reviewer mean with "I'm not fond of how the buttons are laid out. The power button *NOW* sits above the volume buttons."? I have the Pixel 2 XL and Pixel 5 and it's always been this way. Power button on top, volume buttons below it.
This, wow, so glad I am not the only one that noticed it this year! It's like all of them suddenly "discovered it". I think that MKBHD has mentioned it like it was a "new thing" and now everybody repeats that although, as you say, it has been this way on all the Pixels and Nexuses before. And all those reviewers had Pixels before! It baffles me. Love Thao, but I just had to comment :)
I bought a pixel 6 last week but the camera would freeze when trying to scan my paperwork via my work app. Never had an issue with my company app scanner before on my previous Samsung S7 & pixel 2xl devices. My Verizon dealer exhausted every related app & camera setting to reinstalling the app to updating the app to re-powering the dam thing but just would not fix the problem so returned it & got a Samsung 20 FE instead. Not to mention I found it generally unwieldy to operate. Disappointing...
My guess is people are noticing now because the size (especially on the pro model) is bigger than they've ever been before.
I'm really glad you mentioned the screen protector issue on the curved screen. I didn't even think about that because it seems like every other reviewer just keeps their phones naked.
It's great to see the battery life of the Pixel 6/6 Pro get a substantial improvement. 2 day battery life needs to be the *standard* for all flagship devices, whether you're with Apple or Google. That, alone, is making me consider getting the Pixel 6! 💪🏻
@@rahuljain3075 It is great 😐.
I know where you are coming from.
Until last year iphone 12 Pro could go 6-7 hours. But this year iphone 13 pro bump up their battery by miles
This doesn't mean every phone having less battery life than iphone are bad.
@@rahuljain3075 did u say thesame when iphone 11 came out ?
@@beater_y363 they always want to hype iphones for nothing. The pixel is great and outplays the iphone on still photography by far
it's the first time to see a vid about it with a pro on battery life for the 6/6pro though, I've been watching a lot reviews now and the best so far was a ok and a lot of meh on it.(ok 1-1,5 and meh below or max 1 day) I hope 1,5-2days will be correct, I've pre-ordered the 6 as I'm not happy witht the battery life of my current one ;)
Been using the pixel 6 for the past couple of days and this phone is amazing. Such a great deal, I'd say pick it up!
Why is your channel not growing? You’re so good! I’ve been subscribed for a few years now
because people prefer inept people
Because she's actually good. People prefer mediocrity nowadays
Her channel is growing. I remember when it was at 100K subscribers and that wasn't too long ago
@@jmachats Yes but for the quality she puts out constantly, it should hav been bigger. Also, the fact that she doesn't rush her reviews means that she's sometimes a little late compared to others who want to hit embargo. This results in less views for her cuz people hav already watched other channels.
I prefer her and Dave Lee, I like short and concise review rather than the video milking up to 15-20 mins or so
I think you hit the nail on this one. While the Pro model is nice for some of the additional it has, $300 extra kinda doesn't warrant it. Plus the boxy design on the Pixel 6 is rather nice too. I think I'll go with the Pixel 6.
Thao - you have a way of informing me and relaxing me at the same time
TY
Keep up the great work
yep
Great review! Some of the best side by side views I've seen. Nice real-world examples. I ordered the 6 but I'm getting serious fomo seeing the camera examples on the Pro.
Thao, I am an s22 ultra holder. I love it, but I just grabbed the Pixel Pro two days ago. I did after I listened to your tutorial. I am super satisfied with the Pixel Pro to the point where I may never upgrade my Samsung phone again. Just wanna say thanks for your tutorial. Indeed it was an eye opener, possibly a game changer for me.
Finally Subscribed (thought I had done this previously)
This was a simple but great review. Too often "reviewers" spend too much time comparing the Pixel (or other devices) to an iPhone or S21 instead of just talking about the phone. That info has its place. This was breath of fresh air.
If the 6 Pro had a flat screen I'd have bought it, as you mentioned, screen protectors for curved screens are a nightmare. Great compresion.
Man me too, I hate that damn curved screen. It doesn't benefit me at all
I've never had an issue putting a screen protector on any of my Samsungs with a round edge.
I bought the Google 6 and I really love the phone. For my day-to-day use, it meets my demands and goals.
Going from a 3A to a 6 is gonna be nice! Can't wait to get mine. Good review and thanks for the info.
This review was JUST what I needed. I've been with Samsung since they released the galaxy S4 lol. Making the switch to Google was scary but I absolutely love it. No issues connective to my watch active 2 either. Thanks for the video!!
I have the Samsung s20 and I'm afraid of switching to the pixel 6. Which pixel your have?
@Philip P I actually ended up having issues with the phone. fingerprint reader is light years behind Samsung, no facial recognition, android 12 on pixel is barely customizable unless you root the phone and the battery took FOREVER to charge and battery drained so quick even on power saving mode AND i couldnt believe no charger was in the box. I went home and had to buy one rhe next day lol.. the camera was great but I still prefer Samsung. Ended up trading it in for a galaxy a52 5g and I'm loving it. I say stick with your s20. Google is headed in the right direction but they're not up there just yet...
I always love watching your videos. You're the one I watch when I want a honest and unbias opinion about any phones that are released. Thank you you! I look forward to your next video!
My 128GB White Pixel 6 Pro arrives tomorrow. I'm hyped.
Great comparison! I ordered the regular 6 since I already have a 12 Pro Max!
Underrated channel, loved the video, straight to the point while being full of details 👌🏽
You actually got the Pixel 6 Pro and the Pixel 6 :)
I am using pixel 2xl ever since launched and don't regret a bit .. next phone will be 6 pro for sure just waiting for it to launch in my country
Happy with my pixel 6!! Only hate fingerprint sensor which is quite slow and inaccurate sometimes
Very slow! I actually had to take my screen protector off because it wasn't even recognizing my fingerprint with it on.
@@melk2601 you can edit this in settings to make it more sensitive with screen protector on. Go to settings>display>increase touch sensitivity
You're actually dope... subbed!👍
I think the regular looks just as good if not better in most of the shot’s you took. I don’t think the extra would be worth it. Nicely, balanced review. Nice to have another person to get tech information from.
I remember when Samsung released the Note 7, the price was insanely over priced and explosive (see what I did there?). Followed by Apple. Ever since then we have had smartphones over $1000 CAD dollars for an regular model and 1200+ for Pro models. I'm glad Google tool a step to reduce prices. I ordered the Pixel 6 because of the flat display. Thank you for your review, it's what I needed!
I recently got a Pixel 6, and I totally agree with you on the power button placement, can't tell you how many times I've locked my phone during a video playback while trying to change the volume
Always love ur intro. 🤩 Stay shining 🌟
Great impression on the Pixel 6 pro & the Pixel 6 😎
Amazing review. Like everyone said - finally someone who actually reviewed the phones and their comparisons versus others who focus on the camera. No pun intended.
Thanks for a great comparison! Leaning toward the regular 6 with that flat screen, especially with similar batter life.
She's so young. Back in the good-ol-days, the Power button used to be on top of the volume buttons.
Phones were much smaller, so your thumb could comfortably reach it.
that's a actual review there.really nicely done!
Hooray finally the review I was waiting for. I was about to comment last night under one of your videos where's the pixel 6 📸. 🤩🤩🤩
Awesome review, you have convinced me to buy the regular pixel 6, save some money and wait for the s22 ultra 😂
This was an excellent review... Thanks for actually breaking down all aspects of the phone rather than all these other terrible reviewers on TH-cam who just focus on the camera. For God's sakes people if you want the best camera you can get by an SLR not a phone.
Great review! I just wanted to point out that Pixel phones have always had the power button above the volume buttons.
Exactly the video I was looking for! Thanks
New fan. New subscriber. I love that you're talking about screen protectors and what not. As a OnePlus 7 pro user. I'm over the curved display now. And, I actually like the look of the 6 better than the Pro anyway. Especially for the $300 difference! Google hardware has finally arrived though. Because the 6 & the Pro look great and are worth the price. I'm just going with the 6 this year.
curved displays need to go away. I"ve owned many samsungs with it and i hate it. I want the pro but that screen.... sigh.
Me too. Pixel 6 from OP7 pro can't wait.
Just come across your video. Great job. Waiting for my Pixel 6. :) Thanks sis.
I just picked up my Pixel 6 today!!
Same color too and I love it!!
Greate review. Picture quality and editing is amazing. And you are a pleasure to watch. Keep up the good work!
This is my first time seeing one of your vids. It was great, I'm now a sub.
thank you for this video. The best Pixel 6 video I have watched so far.
Great review; I plan on watching a lot more of your excellent presentations.
Great review as always. Short, sweet and to the point.
I always wait for your reviews!
I always love watching your videos
Love the video, definitely been waiting for your post! I will say I noticed you weren't the only one to mention the power button location being weird. I always found this funny because that's how it is set up on other pixel devices (power above volume) and feels more normal to me than the other way around
Really good review I am due my upgrade on Friday so was a little torn .
Only just found your Chanel and definitely subscribed now !
This is a great review! I've watched a few reviews on the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro from other reviewers, and they sometimes get bogged down in details that no one cares about. She hits all the important things! And I am reviewing this video on my Pixel 6 Pro!
You have a special talent, really enjoyed the video review comparison
Excellent video and have been debating on which I'll end up keeping, very helpful! I ordered both so time will tell but this definitely helps better align the expectations.
Outstanding review, subscribed!
Thxs Thao for naming a lot of the differences the other TechTubers forgot to mention that I've been trying to explain to ppl for the past few days lol.
Most didn't mention the haptics ,speakers , selfie video resolution, brightness .
the regular 6 is still missing UWB , stainless frame , and of course the smaller battery, lower res selfie cam , GG victus only on the front , mm wave 5g , 120hz , 1440p, and no telephoto . The mm wave 5G alone is $100 extra which is why Verizon is charging $699 for the smaller pixel 6 because there's have mm wave 5g
waiting for your review ❤️
Thanks for this honest review. It has cemented my decision to get the Google Pixel 6 Pro as it is closest to my current LG V60 in terms of content creation and consumption.
Great review, waiting on my 512gb pro to arrive and cannot wait! Thanks for sharing the information!
Getting my Pixel 6 this week 👌🏼
I agree with every thing you said about curved screens. I am distressed that I won't be able to get a good glass protector for the Pro I couldn't-not order.
Loved the video - looking forward for the review!
I think these are going to do well just from the price alone.
Great review Thao.
*couldn’t care less* could care less means one does actually care. ;)
0:08 Oh yeah we do, Thao, don't we all? 😜
Excellently presented review. 👍
Best review so far and that's where I'm at, considering either the Pixel 6 Pro or Pixel 6 to replace my Huawei P30 Pro. Your review is easy to watch, understand and hits straight to the point(s). Keep up the great work and look forward to future tech reviews!
Love this review. Subbed. Great voice, personality and detail. Keep up the good work!
Thanks for that great comparison!
Woohoo Thao is here! 🥳😎🔥
4:52 - Why do people keep saying that? This button arrangement has been the same on every pixel I've had. I think it was that way even on the Nexus line. It's not new. Pixels have always had that button arrangement.
When is the full review coming? Can't wait. 🤗
Awesome review 👏 👌 thank you Thao 🤗😘❤
love how you present info 👍
Very helpful and honest review. Thanks a bunch!
Wild how different everyone's battery tests seem to be. MKBHD reported roughly 4 hours of SOT while you got 1.5 days! I'd guess reviewers are measuring differently but still, that's a stark difference. Hopefully my results are closer to yours haha. Ordered the 6
Excellent video.
I've seen a couple Pixel 6/6 Pro reviews that mention the fact the power button is above the volume rocker. Why the surprise? That's been the case since the original Pixel.
Not a surprise, just opinion.
Hard to understand?
@@digovicentini1 I reviewer should have known this since the Pixel 1, there is no need to mention it.
@@sneat2028 you can do your own review. That's her.
@@digovicentini1 Was the "hard to understand?" part necessary? Everyone is entitled to their opinion. It's a fact that she seemed surprised. Her exact words were "the power button now sits above the volume buttons." Sure she may not like it. That's her opinion. But back to what I originally said. That has been the case since the original Pixel. Power button has always been above the volume rocker. Maybe she's used to other phones with different button layouts. I'm not throwing the review under the bus by any means. Just saying maybe reviewers should look back for similarities on previous phones from the manufacturer they're currently reviewing a phone for.
STOP all the fighting. The best phone ever is the 1996 Motorola StarTac
It's such an awesome comparison, I've subbed now to the channel! This video also helped me a lot, I've ordered now the regular Pixel 6.
Great video and comparison! 👍
for me it was a no brainer. I'm currently rocking a pixel 2 xl 64gb, and find myself always running out of space. I went with the pro 512gb. Can't imagine I'll ever run out of space, and I just wanted all the features, and the additional ram. I have had my 2xl for 4 years, so barring anything drastic, I can see myself keeping this phone for 5 years especially since google has said they will guarantee security updates for 5 years.
As usual interesting review. All the best
just played around with them at Best Buy. Been using the Z Flip 3 for a week and the battery life!!! You are correct about the overnight drainage. Easily loses 9-10% just sitting on a counter from 12am-8am. As always great review! Cám ơn nhe Thảo.
Awesome video, thanks for making it. I’ve been wondering if the Pro would be worth the extra $ for myself. I definitely feel like the 6 would be the choice for me.
👍👍❤ great review madam I was waiting to see this review great job
Love from India 🇮🇳
The only review channel I need 😎
I like a big phone, since I got big hands so even the s20 ultra wasnt a problem for me, also i love to use a huge keyboard since my fingers are fat.. But I just hate the edge display thing.. I am point and shoot kind of guy so for 99 percent of the time I just use the main camera so no problems there.. I do some adaptations of board games and simple (yet addictive) move games (like RISK and similar) so for my gaming even a 2012 phone will do fine.. So I am thinking of going with the regular 6 but I would love a bigger screen.. This is like the 10th video I have watched today and I just cant make up my mind.
Also last 5 phones I have had have been black so I made up my mind to go for something colorfull this time.
Let me know what do you think would look best.
Good review, got yourself a new subscriber.
Thanks for this. I was supposed to get the Pixel 6 Pro today but decided to send it back to Google and get the Pixel 6. I saw that the Pixel 7 is releasing this fall and I couldn't justify spending $300 more for the Pixel 6 Pro when I will probably upgrade to the Pixel 7 Pro after it is released.
Wow, great review, you do a great job!
4:48 The power button for Nexus/ pixels have been on top of the volume rocker since 2014 ( Nexus 6)
This video is the only comparison video on existence.
Thank you very much for your super helpful and easy to follow review. Cheers!
With the price difference that there in both and comparing the two, which one would you choose, great video!
Great review. Keep it up
Nice one Thao as usual.. Used to love my Nexus 5 and this the first Pixel I might actually consider. 👍
I got the 6 and I'm happy. I was a Moto fan for years but a short support time is a bummer. The 6 is cohesive, good and reasonably priced.
Anything with Thao.....all I needed to see about these 2. ✌👌💯
For pixel phones power button and volume the same position from at least pixel 2-2XL, Sony does make power button under volume buttons. Great and honest review, thanks.
