What if sal... moreCompanies like Xiaomi sell literally everywhere on the earth despite their profit margins being 0 in the first place. Google is one of the biggest companies on earth, their reach is with their other products is literally everywhere. If someone was going to pull of a large scale product expansion, it's gotta be Google.

Release it only in eight counties is crazy.. I really hope they manage a world wide distribution with Samsung collaboration

I've had Pixel, Pixel 2 XL and now am on Pixel 3 XL. Since 4 and 5 were meh, I will have to upgrade this fall but the absence of aptX is (almost) a deal-breaker. Also, they seem to have a nice round butt but I wanna see a pic from the front... they better be flat-chested!

They lost me when they decided that it was phablet or phablet (and I am speaking as a current Pixel owner, whose phone will need replacing soon).

I actually like it's back design. It's different and screams uniqueness even from a distance.
I think and hope it will be heroes. I mean it's pixel. One thing that's guaranteed here is it's camera prowess.

Anonymous, 08 Aug 2021i don't care how much it will cost. I can't wait ... moreIf you have a knowledge on custom ROM flashing, I will definitely advise you to do that while waiting for the new Pixel to arrive. I also had enough of overrated MIUI and flash a custom ROM. Since then, I never look back.

Pixel 6 is going to flop. People always whine how smart phone these days are not innovative and all but when a new different smart phone would come, they won't buy it. They will just go for samsung or iphone. They just love to cry on internet.

The Nexus 6 was the last Google smartphone I used. Although the size was too big then, the phone itself was really good. Six inches of unobstructed Quad HD screen, stereo speakers, wireless charging with other flagship specs back then

The thing that is going to set these apart from other devices is the tight software integration. i tried using android 12 beta rom. and it was undoubtedly an amazing experience. it is the only os that had the polish and looks better than iOS or macOS. that is really great if they can support this device for long time.if so the initial investment would be worthwhile. also can't wait to see how the rdna2 gpu performs in this soc.

These phones are shaping up to be amazing, I would defo get them in a heartbeat, however, considering the hurdles I've had to go through with my Pixel 4XL I am a bit hesitant. The battery in my Pixel went bad at 11 months in, and i waited about 6-7 months to get a replacement (due to unfortunate circumstances I won't get into), along with my camera not working 3 months before the battery went kaput and my Face Unlock not working currently. I've never had this problem with my 3 Samsung Devices (S4, S7 and Note8), nor any smartphone I've had previously, each for 2 years with the exception of my Note8 which i used while I was waiting for my Pixel Battery. I do not want to get the Pixel 6 and eventually have to wait that long again for a Battery or have the Cameras fail after 9 months or so, Google needs to do much better with the Quality Control of their phones, if they want me to be confident in getting their phones in the future, because if it weren't for the aforementioned issues, there would be no question whether or not I would purchase the phone.

Difference between 60 vs. 90 hz is barely noticeable. That's like looking at a 720p vs. 1080p video on a phone from 2013 like the HTC One M7 that had a 1080p display.
The 6 Pro is the only Pixel to get this year. It corrects what the 3 XL and 4 XL did wrong. And get as much RAM as possible. I think 8 GB will be sufficient for at least 6+ year.
If you go on Reddit, you will understand the love the Pixels get. It's the most fluid and ages the best among all Android phones. Shame it may not last another 5 years.
