Product Information

It’s a look you’ll either love or hate, and Google has paired the design with some bold color choices for those who are bored of smartphones that look like small gray rectangles. The Google Pixel 6 Pro has one of the best screens you’ll find on a smartphone, and you’ll get a bright and bold picture no matter what you’re doing. We're likely to see a lot of people with this model, as it's available with both 128GB and 256GB of storage, unlike the other Pixel 6 Pro colors. A new “privacy dashboard” shows how often apps are accessing features such as location, your contacts, the mic, camera and other bits. The combination of 8GB of RAM and the Tensor chip saw the Pixel 6 achieve an average Geekbench 5 score of 2837 – which is just above the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 at 2801, and below the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus at 3034.

Pixel 6 Pro review: the very best Google phone Pixel 6 Pro review: the very best Google phone

The Google Pixel 6 Pro is an exciting challenger to some of the very best smartphones on the market, and it’s the first genuinely top-tier handset from the company.We tested the Pixel 6 on Verizon’s 5G network in Chicago and recorded admirable speeds, averaging 168Mbps down and 78Mbps up.

Sufficiently powerful, with a battery lasting little more than a full day, but with cameras and photo software that outstrip other flagship phones. The phone was the first to launch with Android 12 out of the box, and there are plenty of new features to discover. The new Pixel 6’s rear, on the other hand, is two-tone and split by a horizontal camera block that spans the width of the phone. Most are refinements of the Android UI, such as the new Security settings page that collects all security risks in an easy-to-understand color-coded checklist.As far as the new Motion modes, we couldn't get the Long Exposure sub-setting to work, but we had fun with Action Pan, which lets you immobilize a subject and blur the world around them.

Google's smartphones are built around the company's camera technology, and on paper the camera setup in the Pixel 6 Pro looks like the best from the company yet, with a 50MP wide camera, a 12MP ultrawide camera and a 48MP telephoto shooter. Running the Geekbench 5 test, which scores both single- and multicore CPU performance, the Pixel 6 scored 1,031 and 2,843 respectively.

Lasting just a bit longer than the Pixel 6 Pro, the regular model topped out at just 18hrs 34mins in our video-rundown test, which represents a stamina decrease of 19% compared to 2020’s Pixel 5 (22hrs 54mins).
