Pixelpeeper, 05 Nov 2021Just comparing daylight photos with my 5 year old Nexus 5X.... moreI have a Pixel 6 Pro and a Nexus 5x and I have compared them.
The 6 Pro applies an extremely aggressive and patchy noise reduction to leaves, brick walls, etc despite perfect light conditions. The Nexus 5x doesn't have this issue, so certain areas of a Nexus 5x HDR+ On photo can look much, much sharper. I examined some Pixel 6 Pro HDR+ dng files and the dng files can suffer from this issue, too, but instead of blurry spots you will see colorful artifacts despite perfect light conditions. This makes the camera unusable in my opinion.

Google doesn't use the high resolution modes. An 8x HDR+ raw file only has approximately 3 megapixels. And the camera will often choose digital zoom instead of the periscope camera, even though the results are nearly always worse. It will choose the periscope camera, if you choose 8x.

When are they all going to stop copying Samsung's rounded edges? It's useless, looks ugly when using a back cover, even Samsung are moving away from it. Could be a nice way for Google - or anybody - to get a distinctive phone.

WhyGoogle, 05 Nov 2021Don’t buy it. PleaseI am using a Pixel 2 for years now and the camera is great.
I skipped the 3 4 and 5 because no real progress.
For me the Pixel 6 Pro is tempting.
But being a pixel peeper I would like to have also the full-res output.

For the periscope, depends on the sensor. Because the 48MP from samsung is not really 48MP like exmor imx582/586/589.

What do you think guys out there, do you think that a camera app developed by a third party could make full-res images possible?

Just comparing daylight photos with my 5 year old Nexus 5X. Pixel 6 photos appear to be a bit sharper. However the Pixel 6 smooths out fine details. This smoothing is very evident in distant trees. Probably related to too much sharpening! New updates will hopefully resolve this.

Aierlan, 05 Nov 2021All depends on what your preferences are and who you listen... moreWhy don't you list Pixel 6 there?
It might not be the clear winner overall (I guess Mi 11 Ultra generally holds the crown), but its quite comparable with the top dog flagships IMO. Might actually be the 2nd best if you mostly care about indoor photos of people.

5000+mah battery and it’s clocking in that kind of battery life? That’s laughable!
