The fingerprint sensor on the back is one of the most UNDERRATED spec on phones! We need more of that!
yeah i though im the only one who like the fingerprint reader on the back ,glad theres other people who also like it!
Underscreen fingerprint readers are so fast and fancy it's gotten redundant. It was great when the alternative was a big chin.
I also liked the ones on the on/off button, just felt natural and also I could use it to pull the notification bar with one hand
Yeah, I actually have under-screen readers.
They kinda suck in strong daylight I find.
Not if you’re often using your phone whilst lying on a desk/table or on a charging stand…….

@@Timbopx he totally accurate tho
Love that line. So true. I get anxiety if I don't have a case on my phone. Really don't need my phone to be a status symbol. Also, people who buy nice phones are usually broke and can't delay gratification
Can't put my finger on it, but this style of review...I find it so useful. Verge used to (but less so now) have podcasts that had this same "vibe", and after buying a product, I felt that this "style" of review completely succeeded in priming me for my first-person experience. When it comes to syntax, on-the-nose rigor in evaluation is vital. Additionally, so much information is shared in tone, that a genuine response - untethered from fear of lacking rigor - brings so much to the review...for me, at least, : ). I like both, but so often, most reviews are focused solely on rigor.

@@gideonfelt2819 LTT is a huge operation and they have 50 mouths to feed. They still just have one upload slot a day. They can't burn a slot every day on product reviews - it won't get the views or the sponsorship dollars. SC lets them cover more products without investing a lot of time in writing and shooting, so they still make money on the SC videos, and that means they can save the LTT slots for the more creative videos that get more views so they make more money on LTT.

I seriously wish they would've made a 6" pixel 6. I would've threw my money at them. 6.4" is way too big for one handed use. Maybe if you're Shaq, but the majority of people aren't.
you forget how display sizes are measured. They are measured from the bottom left to the top right... or bottom right to top left. So a tall phone could have a 6.4in display while being rather skinny but an old boi like my note 4 with its 5.7in screen is almost too wide to hold properly
@@Dimondminer11 I have not forgotten. I owned a Nexus 6P which is roughly the same footprint as the pixel 6, but there was a lot less screen so the reach for the upper left side of the screen was pretty doable with a thumb. With the pixel 6, it will be nearly half an inch further away. Very uncomfortable. You'll have to change your entire hand position to stretch over there.
6.4 isn't too big, you just have baby fingers
@@androiduberalles I don't know if this is an Android or OneUI feature, but if you swipe down on the center bottom of the screen, it shrinks the UI so you can reach the top.
100% agree with Riley on the front-facing speaker issue. It’s why I still think that the HTC One line was one of the best phones I ever had for audio

"If you'll never compare your to another phone, it will look great."

I'd love to see Brandon do a comparison video with the Pixel 6, iPhone 13 and an entry level/mid tier mirrorless camera
Love how dbrand just pays for the best random sponsor segments. We need more of them plz XD
10:20 Kind of makes sense, you would need at least 2 photos to add motion blur because there is no way for the algorithm to know which way the blur should be going with only 1 photo

The Riley way is literally how we all should preach to save money. Gonna be waiting for 6A with a headphone jack as well to use my IEMS!!
I'd love to have headphone jack back as well. Is that like a trend for the A series?
Doesn't make much sense to use amazing IEMs with a poor quality built in dac. Get yourself a nice mobile DAC dongle. Z reviews has a great round up. Besides, the pixel 6 is so much phone for the money, I'd worry about sacrificing longevity with lesser phone. I'd rather pay more up front and have a usable phone for longer. Less e waste too.

What's it like going from the rear finger print sensor to the front? I've had a few pixels and love them, but am hesitant to upgrade because I really like it being on the back
I upgraded to a pixel 6 (previous Pixel 2) and the Sensor on the back is near twice as fast as the Sensor on the screen. I liked it way better on the back of the phone than on the screen
@@DynaDo yeah I got the original Pixel at launch and had it until the Pixel 4A launch which is what I'm using now. cracked my screen so I'm temped to upgrade but the finger print sensor location is a big deal to me. May just go with the Pixel 5 cause of the under screen sensor.
If you haven't switched yet, take it from someone who ran a Nexus 5X, Pixel 3 and now Pixel 6, it's jarring at first but you get used to it. I prefer it now because it can be used on a flat surface.
You might hear that it's slower than the old one, which might be slightly true, but I find it took a week or so for it to find its stride and get really consistent. Even still, if it's a few milliseconds slower, it's not the biggest deal. People who complain about those microseconds of difference need to stop obsessively taking out and putting away their phone lol. It's perfectly usable.
@@austin.paquette I actually upgraded two weeks ago to the Pixel 6 Pro. Yeah for the first few days, it felt like I was constantly defaulting to the pin cause it kept rejecting my print. But eventually it either learned or I just got better at knowing where to put my finger
@@Irishrebel092 Nice! What was your previous phone? Mine was the smaller 3 and when I say the huge battery life is jarring, I mean it. Even when it was new it still barely survived a day. Today at 6pm after 3½ hours of SOT I'm only at 60%. Maybe I'm not used to bigger phones and their resulting battery sizes but it's a world of difference that I wasn't ready for 😅 I could probably go 2 days on this thing with light use

Man all the videos with Riley are just so entertaining
Classic LMG! Putting up their first impressions video the same time as the full review embargo instead of with the initial impressions embargo last week. Gotta love ‘em!
Didn't the pixel embargo get pushed a day?
Did you see how ridiculous the first impressions embargo was? That's why LMG and Mr who'stheboss outright refused to cover it before the full review lifted
13:33 double nice
Got to agree about the fingerprint sensors. Just upgraded from the S9 to the S21 Ultra and it's just awkward getting it to unlock using the underscreen one. The S9 was easy, I knew exactly where to put my finger as I picked up the device and if I missed by a tiny bit it was a doddle to adjust to the right spot as I could feel it under my finger. Now I get a half dozen errors because my finger is only partially on the sensor and I have to retry to get a good read. Maybe it'll be easier with muscle memory (it's only a week in at this point) but it's definitely a step backwards in ease of use imo.
I LOVE his outlook on the lack of importance on phone color. he is spot on. people pay ectra money for a color sometimes just to keep it in their pocket or put a case on it.....
Huh? All the colors are priced the same.
Whoever did the SponsorBlock was real quick today 😀
Riley with the utilitarian view on these devices.
I agree with the in screen fingerprint comment! I have the fold 3 (upgraded from Note 9) and having the fingerprint sensor right where the power button is is the MOST ideal spot for it! I can easily take it out of my pocket and unlock it to use my mobile pay and immediately lock and pocket my phone without having to shuffle my hands around it AT ALL.
My dad on the other hand just bought the S21 Ultra and realized his case isn't going to work with the fingerprint sensor and he can't use just any old cheap glass screen protector anymore like he could on his Note 4 because of the fingerprint sensor.
Mobile companies need to scrap the in screen fingerprint sensor and just stick it under the power button. Most likely one of your fingers are going to be there anyways so why change it? Plus it's faster and more reliable. Admittedly I liked the idea of it at first but it seems like too much of a pain to me now. Forget about it and focus on improving something else like minimizing the camera bumps again.
Will you do a full review over on LTT?
"Hopefully the headphone jack is coming on the 6a"
My thoughts exactly. Until then, there's always Sony with their full line of phones with no camera notch/hole and a headphone jack. Google, if you keep cutting standard features like a headphone jack, that doesn't mean I'm going to buy your bluetooth earbuds (and then another pair every few years when the battery stops holding a charge), it just means I'm going to buy a different phone.
I've never used a case for my 3A and Only broke the screen once after dropping it hundreds of times. Corners got dings, though.
haha goes to show how good the screens are then!
Good job Riley! No pocket test with the new camera bump?
I purchased one a few days ago but estimated delivery is mid December. Cannot wait!!
honestly the biggest feature I miss from my Pixel now that I have an S21 is the lock screen song identifier. I used it constantly and it's a noticeable loss from my feature list, even though the S21 is an amazing phone. I am strongly considering paying it off and selling it so I can get a Pixel 6. I just love the google phones so much.
I'm doing it personally , I would have never left the Google ecosystem if not for my 4xl dying due to hardware failure
You would buy a phone for such a minor reason? How often does music play and you want to know the name but you can't unlock your phone to use an app to identify it? This seems like an extremely niche reason, never mind the fact that the way it functions is just yet another privacy risk.
@@connoc5078 that's certainly not the only reason. I really enjoy Google's app suite (which I just had on my Samsung) but the other, major thing, is I really enjoy that Pixel gets access to all the new software updates and features first. Samsung has always been behind in that field and I have no doubts this will continue when it comes to getting the roll out of the new Android version.
uh what
my note 20 ultra with the Aod tells you what track is playing easily
also works with the lockscreen too, at least for SoundCloud and spotify
@@ShaiyanHossain You don't know about the feature he/she is talking.
Practically the best Review so far of the Pixel,,I love how natural and free and open and fun your team is, hence making the videos so much fun and informative and useful
15:03 I think what you're hearing is the phone applying compression. I've been using a 3XL for ages and you'll notice the top two or three clicks of the volume slider on that one really change the sound as digital compression kicks in. It can make some high-end signal sound distorted, but it's definitely good at bringing up the low-mids. I was hoping they'd keep that for the 6/6pro because I haven't heard of other phones doing that and it's not like a "listed" feature!
Newer phones utilize their casings a lot for sound reproduction, especially bass. I've found that my Pixel 6 Pro sounds significantly better without a case on it, but I don't really listen to music with the phone speakers; that's what my Sony WF-1000MX4's are for.
This is the first time in my life I looked forward to the sponsor ad in a CZcams video. Jolly good show lmao.
Makes me want a 5a at reduced cost. Headphone jack is a must.
Headphone jack was a must until I finally caved and got the S20+...
Bluetooth buds are really convenient. I just got some relatively cheap Tozo ANC buds and they sound great and last for quite some time. Significantly cheaper than the name brands. To be fair though, I rarely ever use them for music, just podcasts and YT, so a high standard isn't necessary there.
@@Shibby7634 yeah once i got my first set of bluetooth buds i never went back to wired earbuds its just so much more convenient.
I’m not gonna lie it’s 2021 about to be 2022 lol you gotta let that headphone jack go 😂

5:26 one of the most fun sponsor spots ever in LMG lol
8:29 - 8:30 that cute Riley squeak is great lol
I hate curved displays, make it harder to get a case or screen protector, the cost of a replacement screeen also goes up, it sometimes reflects lights at certain angles, the so call "benefit" of it being allegedly more ergonomic pales in comparison to the downsides. Take if from a former Galaxy Note 8 user.
Current galaxy note 8 owner here and I agree considering its 300 to replace my screen. I will say i wish that screen protector manufacturers would do better tho because if they stepped up it would be an amazing experience
Also the edge lighting for notifications is nice
You have to understand they make everything easier to break, harder to repair to get more money from you.
I'm wondering why camera gets such attention in the r&d, marketing and in the reviews of the phone. I mean upgrading a camera system is good for the user but I think phone brands and reviewer should care more about other aspects of the phone because for a great share of us using the camera is rare compared to the web browsing / media consumption / sending chats etc....
then thats why u get a different phone
I think smartphones have gotten about as good as computers in terms of media and web browsing. On the other hand, cameras still have a lot of room. They are no where near the level of mirrorless cameras, and because that, people are excited every year to see improvements of cameras.
It's rather simple, people carry phones around every day, but they don't carry dslr, so a phone with great picture quality is a must, because that's the camera only camera that will be around. On the other hand, cpu and gpu nowadays on phone is fast enough to run daily tasks without hiccups. The faster the cpu the better/faster image processing can get. My phone is galaxy note 8, and the only thing that makes it feel old is camera.
@@dagnisnierlins188 That's great and all, but can we get a phone that doesn't have a camera bump big enough to be it's own device? Or thicker phones to accomodate all that technology and maybe a bigger battery and a headphone jack?

Something to consider is that the 6 Pro has an LTPO display so that could offset the battery loss from being QHD by a margin
Aswell as the almost 5000mha capacity, I'm sure the battery life will be pretty great for a long time
I have an S21 Ultra and it's equipped with an LTPO display. The battery life gains are real, it's some good tech that I'm excited to see improved upon. While not jaw-dropping when it comes to improved battery life, it's absolutely noticeable in day to day use and I don't want to imagine how bad the battery life would be without the LTPO display. The large battery also helps, lol.
That is pretty annoying tho. LTPO is just a software feature, if one has it why can't the other one have it as well when they developed it ? It is on purpose to make the smaller version look worse and make you consider the pro model and i hate that. Not only are the best phones always larger for some reason damnit while i would love small flagship phone but the compromises of buying cheaper version often don't even make sense.

Nailed it!
Back when I was still using android I LOVED my pixels, I'm honestly slightly tempted to grab a Pixel 6 just as a second phone since these look like a big refinement over the 3XL and 4XL.
Folded optics are optics. Building microscopes, etc. you bounce lasers off all sorts of mirrors and through filters to shape the excitation light. It's just bouncing light off of mirrors.
Pre-ordered on launch day! Good priced phone from good manufacturer. I had the 2XL and loved it! Almost better than my Samsung S10+ and thats twice the price.
I have a 2XL, as well, and this finally gave me reason to upgrade. Well, that, and the battery is worn way out.
Sorry but pre-ordering stuff is not a smart move.
650$ is a good price and Google a good and trustworthy company? Okay dude…
@@NymezWoW For a near flagship-level phone, it's a good price.
I want more of Riley getting hit by stuff lol
I love the animosity between LTT and Dbrand like they like each other but in a friends who actually hate each other while still being friends kind of way
dBrand gets more sales by poking the bear and by LTT pretending to be offended. It's all just business.
I have a Pixel 5 and there is actually a front-facing speaker underneath the screen. Is that not the case on the 6(pro)?
"they got some sand and molded it on the google logo"
ohh man riely you killed it!!🔥❤️
Software toggles are useless for the camera and mic. If your phone's software is compromised then the attacker can use those toggles as well. They need to be hardware toggles that physically cut the power to the component.
But if your phone isn't compromised you can be sure that no app, whether you gave it permission to use the camera at some point or not, can access it while you are, for example in the bathroom.
@@Momi_V It's not a big deal considering all the attacks and leaks have been only on Apple.
Riley has got some Unbox Therapy vibe here today!
That was an insanely good gru impression
I really wish the 6pro was just ever so slightly "more pro" with a slightly brighter screen and a couple of tiny improvements because I don't really like the design of the normal 6 but an extra £300 or £400 for the 256gb pro over base is a bit steep
That's interesting, I'm in a similar boat in thinking the pro isn't really worth the extra cash, but a big part of that reason is because I find all of the colours of the pro so boring. I'll be getting it in 'sorta seafoam', I think it looks awesome. I tend not to use cases!
Yea their pricing team really f'ed up here. I guarantee we'll see deep discounts on the 6 Pro by Black Friday. There is just no way enough people don't jump on the $599 Pixel 6 base model, as the $300 price hike for the Pro is laughable and offers nothing worth that much value to step up to that model. They should have priced it at $750 or $799 at the highest.
Yup, I'm sure those software toggles for the mic and camera are super secure 😅
Why not?
Its just you can't trust a notoriously pravacy invading company with anything but hardware toggles. But that goes for any smartphone not geared towards true privacy.
Still cool to see it though.
Google did the camera bar on the Nexus 6P

Does it really have dual speakers at the bottom? Mine left bottom speaker does not work. Please answer me if you now.
"Yeah, I mean I like the feel of the phone, well its a phone..."
Superb.
Remember, not all headphone jacks are created equal, and you won't always get the same audio experience. There are USB C DACs that will give you higher res audio if you want to use a headphone jack. Initially, I kinda missed the jack but now there are dongles with High Res DACs you can buy for around 30 dollars. So, no matter what phone you upgrade to, you'll have high res audio.
The processor itself in the Pixel 6 pro isn't likely to be spec'ed out to be faster, but the larger frame + cooling system will allow it to reach higher boost clocks so it'll seem faster in exchange for more battery usage.
I ended up getting the Pixel 6 to replace my 3 (needed to for my job as the 3 doesn't get security updates anymore) and honestly, I'm not disappointed, but I really think that the Pixel 3 had a lot more life to give. Also I'm having to get use to the fact that the Pixel 6 is bigger in my hand and pocket.
Also, I prefer the back mounted finger scanner, I agree the just feels better to use.
Is it possible to flash LineageOS on that Pixel 3?
