I am not too optimistic regarding the camera.
-The leaks don't mention a 50 megapixel high resolution mode, this would be a huge disappointment
-according to the leak, Google will offer a 5x digital zoom for the periscope camera (4*5= 20, so 20x is the maximum zoom setting), this strongly suggests that Google won't use the periscope camera in its 48 megapixel mode and will only use the 12 megapixel mode. 5x digital zoom is a typical value for 12 megapixel cameras.
-it isn't advertised that the periscope camera can be used in the astrophotography mode (could have been nice for the Andromeda Galaxy)
-no macro capabilities are advertised
-neither color temperature slider nor exposure time slider (for example for Night Sight) are mentioned
-according to a leak, the portrait mode will offer "1x" and "2.8x" zoom settings. Google's "1x" is usually a 1.5x setting in portrait mode, so the "2.8x" setting is the periscope camera (2.8*1.5=4.2). The main camera of the Pixel 6 is equivalent to 24mm. So, the 1.5x portrait mode images are now equivalent to only 36mm, this will lead to more perspective distortion due to a smaller distance. And if they don't offer true 1x portrait mode images, the effective resolution of the 1.5x portrait mode might be only 5.5 megapixels (12.5/1.5²).

Time will tell what Google their offering will do in Pixel 6, I don't care as I never use stuff like super zoom.

I have a Pixel 3a and the zoom is terrible (very artificial, wrong details due to machine learning, it also makes dead pixels visible), it only really works in not perfect light conditions due to combining more frames when you zoom, this improves the signal to noise ratio. In light conditions with a good signal to noise ratio it's rather worse than traditional digital zoom. The marketing material doesn't indicate that Google leverages the 50 megapixel resolution.

And the 6 Pro only has one tele camera, so it can't be used at 50mm, unless one stitches multiple images together. I am not optimistic that Google will offer its 360° panorama mode with support for the tele camera.

What else I would write about while the product is not coming to india? Google is going to keep the Indian customers away from its flagship phones. Unfortunate. Sony shifted LG withdrew hence Chinese brands dominates here in the Android Market. What I demand is to change their marketing policy.

Looks great. The only missing is ARMv9 - waiting for Pixel 7 but probably something else during next year will steal my attention.

« the Pixel Stand wireless charger can turn the phone into a hub that can control smart devices and a photo frame that shows pictures from Google Photos »
This should be probably be a screensaver features (when in charge) that came ... on Samsung circa 2015, don't know if still available though
