Jumping in.

That's exciting! When do you get it? I actually returned the pixel 6 this morning. I really liked the phone, I didn't have any problems with the fingerprint sensor and it seemed to be pretty stable. But my 4xl had a much better screen than the pixel 6. So I decided to keep my 4xl a little while longer. But when you go to set up your fingerprint sensor, register the same fingerprint twice. I had no problems with the fingerprint reader after I did that.

The screen default on the Pixel 6 is Adaptive Brightness ON. With the default Adaptive Brightness, the Pixel 6 screen will be dismally dim and won't compare favorably to anything.

No that wasn't the case. The pixel 4 XL has a 3040x1440 resolution. The 4xl is quad hd The pixel 6 is only 1080p. That's how they save money with the price. Also you'll notice when you move the pixel 6 screen back and forth you see rainbow effects. There is none of that on the 4XL.

I have the Pixel 6 Pro with a resolution of 3120 x 1440, an even higher resolution than the 4XL. I agree, to me it also makes a significant difference.

Yeah the 6pro has the high resolution screen. But I just had the regular 6. How do you like the curved edge display?

Quite frankly, I don't even notice it. I fail to see what all this curved screen hate is all about. I've had my P6Pro since November and I've had none of the issues some have. I like mine a lot and the thought of returning it never entered my mind.

That's wonderful! Happy Phone Week! What colour Pixel 6 Pro did you get? Enjoy! Glad the fingerprint scanner is working well for you!

I do love that name -- "Stormy Black"!

My only reservation is that I am glad they aren’t any bigger, but I don’t like big phones.

And I love big phones, the bigger, the better. I use my P6Pro for stock charts with my Interactive Brokers trading app and photography, of course.

As of the first day I'm impressed. I've had none of the issues I've been reading about. The fps is almost as fast as my OnePlus 7 Pro and I'm really glad to have wireless charging!

So glad your first day with your Pixel 6 Pro is going well!

Sounds great! I've had my P6Pro since November and I too have had none of the issues some post on the forum.

I'm wondering if I should try out the Pixel 6 or wait for the Pixel 7. Decisions, decisions!

It's a pretty great phone. I feel like people are having reception issues, but my T-Mobile Pixel 6 (in the southeast United States) has been pretty great actually.

At preorder time the Pixel 6 Pro sounded great and I had just smashed the screen on my Pixel 3XL and it was barely useable.

I recall your saying that you were still happy with your Pixel 5. If that's still the case, consider that the Pixel 7 isn't that far off.

Your poor Pixel 3 XL! Ouch! That was a perfect time to upgrade!

Yes! I love my Pixel 5! I'll stick with it until the 7 comes out or until another phone comes out that intrigues me.

From my experience, I would recommend skipping the 6. I wish I had.
