Google Pixel 6/Pro - just over the horizon?

[RaRa85]

I might just go back to Google if everything pans out with this phone. Very nice!

What are you using now?

Nice choice though.

What kind of Pixel phone were you using before?

Just looking at the Google tweets from yesterday and noticed that they showed the front of the 6 Pro (tweet 9/13). Although it has curved glass this appears to be very minimal. It does not look like the viewable part of the screen wraps down around the edges. I'm very glad to see this! It was my biggest reservation about the 6 Pro.

Big time, I thought the pixel 4 wasn't enough for an upgrade for me at that time and pixel 5 just felt like a massive step backwards.

Any confirmation about them ditching the awful under display speaker?

I read there is a speaker in the bezel. No speaker under glass.

This is exactly what I wanted to hear. Thank you

I was using the Pixel 2 XL. And before that was Nexus phones.

In the pictures you can see a top speaker grill squeezed into the top bezel, like a lot of other phones are doing.

Boo-yah! What a great lineup! Getting the Google Pixel 6 coming from a previous Google Pixel 2 XL would be an awesome upgrade!

Yes indeed! I miss using Google phones to be honest.

What about face unlock and double tap to lock. Any news, speculation?

Read and article today that suggests the pro could be north of 1k and the regular at 9-1k. No bueno. Was hoping for at least $200 cheaper. Hoping these expectations fall short.

That’s right in line with the competition though but I think you’re right and I’m hoping they start at $999 for the Pro and $899 for the 6. As long as they don’t go up into $1199 I’ll be getting one since I don’t pay full price upfront anyway.

It's the trade off. I'm not a power user so the price of Pixels was always appealing to me. I will still be looking to purchase one though bc I need to go back. Like you, I'm not looking to pay full price up front either. I'll pay off this thing I have now then sell it for a down payment and spread out the rest

Hope everyone holds off buying one for some reason or another...My order will ship faster...and wouldn't mind them upgrading my Pixelbook.

Yeah I'm waiting for Black Friday. I never order the first batch of new hardware anyway. Enjoy it a month or so before me lol

So there's no Note 21 Ultra right?

Great timing because I am LOVING this Pixel, first time EVER I'm excited for it. Reminds me of one of my top 10 phones of all-time, the nexus 6P.

I will be picking up the Pro for sure.
