After using the Pixel6 for three months, we have a few more thoughts on how Google's latest flagship fares in the real world.

The Pixel 6 is the nicest phone Google has ever released — and I’ve used quite a few of them, from the Pixel 3 XL to the Pixel 3a XL to the Pixel 4a, 5, 5a 5G, and now 6. It’s a very good phone with many things to like, including a standout design. No phone is perfect though, and the Pixel 6 has a pretty glaring flaw for me, personally.

While some customization was stripped away in the transition to Android 12, what remains is still serviceable and playful . Google’s delightful new widgets make the home screen, lock screen, and notification center pleasant to view. The beautifully designed apps continue that illusion. While third-party apps from the likes of Facebook and Spotify are unlikely to buy wholesale into Google’s color-agnostic interface, progress is being made little by little in niche third-party apps.

When it comes to talking about cameras, images do speak louder than words. These images are from the first day of spring and captured around London with the wide and ultrawide cameras. I’m no photographer, but the experience was an enjoyable one. This is twice as frustrating when you consider that Apple has nailed the battery problem with the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro both of which have considerably smaller batteries than the Pixel 6 and Google already nailed battery life with the Pixel 5a.

I’m not one to make phone calls of my own free will so I haven’t noticed the dropped calls that some have reported, but I have noticed times where my 5G service has been terrible. Could that be because of the Exynos modem used in the Tensor chip? That goes for the Pixel’s dubious battery performance as well, with Samsung’s Exynos chips notorious for both poor signal and battery performance.
