    iPhone 13 Pro vs. Pixel 6 Pro: what 2,000 photos tell us

    Google Pixel 6 Pro Pros&Cons coming from Oneplus 7 Pro

    Posted: 10 Nov 2021 04:28 AM PST

    Pros

    The design is unique, and I like it. I have the Sorta Sunny variant, and fingerprints are not that visible, but I would've preferred a matte version or at least frosted glass on the back.
    Screen is better than the one on 7 Pro. Colours are more vivid, and I can feel the difference going from 90hz to 120Hz.

    Android 12 runs smooth. Had no performance issues so far.

    Cameras are very good. Post-processing is top-notch, less noise comparing to the 7 Pro even when taking zoomed-in photos.

    Battery life is one of the reasons I had to buy another phone, and it takes me through the whole day with no issues. I usually have between 40% and 60% when I arrive home after work.

    Front-facing speakers are very good. The sound is full, with enough bass and it doesn't distort at high volume.

    I use the phone mostly for work and had no issues with any work apps, and enrolling it to Intune was fine. Price was a surprise. Before launch I though the Pro variant will cost over £1000. It was less than that and I'm also waiting for the Bose headphones that came with the pre-order, which are ~£350.

    Cons

    I miss the full display experience of 7 Pro. I'm not a fan of camera holes. Both screens are curved and very similar on that aspect, but I'm not a fan of that either.

    The fingerprint scanner is slower, and you must apply the right pressure to have a successful scan.

    I used Android 10 before and beside the smoothness Android 12 brings to the table, there's not that many good things I can say about 12. Customization is lacking in several areas, including the launcher. I don't like that in order to disable Wi-Fi or 4G/5G I must tap 2-3 more times instead of one.
    Android 12 gestures are very hard for me to get used to, especially the back gesture. It messes with many apps that have some sort of menu popping when swiping right.
    Certain options are all over the place, like the battery information. You have the Battery section, then you have screen time in the Apps section and Digital Wellbeing section. What was wrong with the old way of showing battery info/stats?
    Bluetooth is unreliable. I either lose connection completely or the sound goes away on the left side. If I change the sound source, then it comes back. Hopefully this is a bug and can be fixed by a software update. Had 0 issues with the 7 Pro. I have the Sony WF-1000XM4 headphones.

    I don't play games so I can't comment on the performance or any overheating and throttling issues others experience.

    Overall, this is a good phone and I'm happy with my purchase.
    Android 12 experience can be improved, and I do hope Google can address many of these issues/concerns, and maybe fire/demote the people who came out with some of the design changes. Android is about full customization and ease of access. If on Android 10 I tap once to access something and on 12 I must tap 3 times to access the same thing, something's not right.
