Google Pixel 6 Pro: Should You Buy This in 2024? 

Thank you to Best Buy for sponsoring this video! Check out the A7iii and A7iv here: A7iii: go.magik.ly/ml/1z7lq/ A7iv: go.magik.ly/ml/1z7ls/

I've had my Google Pixel 6 Pro since March 2022 and I've had some hiccups like heating issues when using camera especially when recording in 4k60 and playing COD Mobile, random reboots, but after the Android 14 Software update my goodness this phone is a BEAST and FLY'S like no other phone I've ever used, and on top of that my geekbench score is way higher than it was when I originally got it on Android 12, a thousand more points then before for both single and multi score. It's AMAZING how good the phone runs now, even recording video is so much better with heat management I can record video in 4k60 with no problems now it's literally like a BRAND NEW PHONE!! Funny thing is I was about to upgrade to the Pixel 8 Pro but after the Android 14 update and how good the Pixel 6 Pro is now I will be keeping it for another year. Thank you Google y'all pulled through this time🙂👍🏼

I went from the Samsung Galaxy S9 to the pixel 6 Pro back in 2021, and I haven't looked back since. I love the pixel 6 Pro, and I will probably have the one that I have until 2026. Here's hoping by 2026 Google has a new phone that I actually like.

Appreciate you doing this series. I'm coincidentally considering getting an older phone, since I don't really see anything that newer phones do remarkably better, then may as well save a few bucks.

Excellent video as always, Mark!! I really like your tech rewind videos!! Even though I have a Samsung S21 base model I really considering getting another Pixel phone in the near future. Maybe the Pixel 9.

How bout Xperia 5 mark 3? is it good for this year?

I Currently still use my Pixel 6. prior to that i had a Pixel 2 and before that a nexus 4 the quality and generally decent lifespan of these devices has been great for me. My pixel 2 still lives and is my backup phone for when i travel

Watching this on my Pixel 6 Pro right now. Have the best but still love the P6P.❤

Just upgraded from the 6 to the 8, I'm really liking the 8, i mainly notice 120hz vs 90hz but I was absolutely fine on 90hz, and now much brighter the 8's screen is, I like the wider ultrawide too and actually how small it is, my friend got my 6 as an upgrade from a A43 5G (i think), I'll enjoy the 7 years of updates when this eventually gets passed onto my mum. Oh and the face unlock, love it, just hate the software locking of the pro camera modes between the 8 & the 8 Pro.

😊 Good stuff. Thank you for this! 👍

I got it for 290 dollars in mint condition and I can’t complain much. The portrait from the camera could be much better but I never liked how pixels took portraits but everything else apart from that works perfectly. Fingerprint sensor, processor, all good

Debating on going for these or either s22 or S23 fe thoughts?

Should i swap my rog 5s 12/256 to a pixel 6 pro 12/128?

Was thinking of 2018 phones on Tech Rewind.. :) Kinda want to see how they hold up after years

I can't find your wallpapers. Link please

Please any one suggest i have upgrade my phone to pixel 6 pro vs samsung s21 ultra which one better?

One video about the S22 pls ❤️🙏

I love the speakers on the Pixel 6 pro!

I bought the 6 pro the day they came out. It was the first pixel I bought where I was worried that I made the wrong choice (I've had the 1, the 3xl, and the 5). The connectivity issues were so aggravating 😅 but I stuck it out and I still have the same phone I bought day one. Google really stumbled with the launch of the 6 line imo, but definitely saved it with the updates by the skin of their teeth. Where the phone is now is honestly pretty great. It's definitely not my favorite pixel, but I can at least say I'll be continuing to buy the pixel line of phones based off of Google's dedication to supporting their phones.

Bought one brand new on ebay for 300€ absolutely in love

Hello from Athens Greece. Pixel 6 pro vs mate 40 pro. What is your opinion? thanks in advanced. owner of mate 40 pro

got one today as 2nd phone while my magic 5 pro is in repair. it's decent and the camera is still awesome, especially the tele.

That green screen took me by surprise, definitely a different quality than your other shots and videos

The 6 series should receive a higher updates score b/c of the 5 years of security updates (the most important updates)

I bought this phone for camera use; my daily driver is a oneplus 9 pro. I give it a 10 for design. It totally reminds me of Geordi La Forge from Star Trek. I also give it a 10 for the camera/software. It takes phenomenal pictures with minimal input from me, i direct contrast with the Op9pro which despite the Hasselblad takes trash pictures.

what are you reviews that's second phone in 2024?

can you do on the next video OnePlus 11 ? Please

Something I recommend to install on this device is Evolution X. It does some amazing things like improving thermal performance of the phone and reducing a LOT of the drain issue on LTE. Also it adds some customization and the system is wide supported on the community

Would you suggest I buy this phone or the A54 from samsung? The price is the same (300€)

I find pixel 6 pro for 200$ it's a bit damaged but it's old used for 2-3 years so i don't know should i get it or get new poco f3 someone respond pls

Hello Sir !from Phil. here I have a Q? Planning to buy Google Pixel pro! a 2 nd hand only here in my Country .Q? is the problem of 6/6pro Fix already? I'm hoping for your reply Thank you in advance

Great video, im torn between the pixel 7 pro and the S21 ultra. I love the format of scoring the devices as most reviews leave me more confused as there is no conclusion on whether you should get it or not.

Bought a Sorta Sunny 6 Pro refurb on Amazon for $250 the other day as I’ve not had any experience with a modern android flagship. Having had an iPhone as my main phone for well over a decade I’m excited to try the hardware and software compared to my 14 Pro Max and thought $250 was absolutely amazing for the hardware.

I went from the Note 9 to the pixel 6 pro. About half a year in the charging port started to crap out, the signal began to be spotty and the battery became unreliable. I also got tired quick at the lack of brightness compared to displays I was used to. I could NOT WAIT to get my hands in an S24. I will probably stick with samsung in the long run from now on.

How about "Sony Xperia 1 iii" for an episodes of tech rewind?

Keep up the good work brother,Fan from India ❤

Please pixel 6pro or the pixel 7a, which should I go for?

I would love for you to check the Huawei mate 20x

4:09 😁 I see what you did there

Definitely love the design 10/10, got mine two years ago and still using it today. Some times I'd just take out the cover and admire this beauty

How about Google Pixel 7 ?

Still using my Pixel 6 and it's still going strong. The Pro would be the far better value buy now but the standard 6 was one of the best bang for your buck phones when it came out.

Mark we're still waiting for your Pixel 8 review

YES

Still use my pixel 6pro 😊

I dont even use my 6 Pro as a phone. Bought it for GoPro Quik video edits. I have no money for a computer, yet. 12Gb RAM. 🎉 Best buy, ever!!❤

That sharp depreciation is why I never buy pixels new. I bought my pixel 6 for $350 used only a few months after it came out. I'll be doing the same thing when I upgrade to the pixel 9.

Long time Samsung user here. I recently bought a 6pro of Facebook with a slightly cracked screen for £30. It turned out to be one of the best phones I have used. I'm actually considering a 8 pro. Few things I have noticed, Finger print sensor is absolutely perfect, cannot see the issue with it, an mine has a cracked screen. Speakers are fine, no issues and it totally sounds balanced. And speed? Not any issues with speed or over heating as most report. Over all I think most people are overly harsh on reviews of the phone. I don't think it's as bad in these areas as people make out. Great video and love the Sony set up 👌

please do about pixel 7 pro

Interestingly I never had an issue with rhe fingerprint sensor on my 6 pro

Thank you. it will run out of security updates in 2026?

Wrong again the tensor chip out performs the 888 in GPU

I pre ordered my current 6 pro 512 gig. I am waiting on the 9 pro before I buy another phone.

I need to get my hands Google pixel 6pro

My phone broke so i got a Google 6 pro. Very solid i like it . I give it a 8.5 out of 10. Because although i like the design of it definitely finger smudges all over the place lol

These are some of the best speakers I've heard. So couldn't agree

Does this still overheat?

I bought the used phone now and loving the performance

Well I just bought a 6 Pro 🥰

I agree, black sucks for phones. It's time for a change to Orange!

THERES NO WAY. I WAS LITERALLY JUST WONDERING ABOUT THIS PHONE AND I SENT AN OFFER TO A GUY. THIS IS AMAZING TIMING AND AMAZING VIDEO AS USUAL ❤

There must be something wrong with the speakers on your handsety pixel 6 pro speakers are perfectly balanced and actually have some bass certainly not tinny they sound great

got mine for 180 dollars good condition best for the price

Bro if you have either iphone, Samsung and of course google pixel made in ND 2018 you still have a phone of highest quality stimm smart phone

Foind a new one at a pawnshop for 80. Was seeing if its good for mother in law

random reboot and fingeprint stopped working in my pixel 6 pro😢its so annoying

I came here cuz I got my phone screen fixed and I thought they put a different screen in my pencils were bigger 😭🤣🤣 it's the same

Watching from 6pro❤❤❤

My screen phone died from the high ground with full Protection 2:55 in this clip with a case some how the cost that fix it up to 200usd

Thanks for mentioning the speakers! I thought there's something wrong with my phone. Turned out it's just shit LOL

Not going to lie, the Pixel 6 pro was a surprise when it was announced , google did good for their first attempt better than i thought

Crazy its actually 200 and less all over ebay now

5G drains mine way more than LTE.

Recently shifted to the 6 pro and i can't be happier! Coming from the s20+ the main issue I had was the battery, and the pixel 6 pro is sufficient enough I absolutely love the cameras and photos it captures. And although I do miss a few things from the Samsung, overall the phone has been the best decision ever. Definitely not switching back to samsung anytime soon due to the heating issues

Watching with 6pro now

I would say no, but if you have it no reason to upgrade now/this year.

after 2 months using it, my screen is dead, all black.

S21 plus please

In short. Yes. The differences from the 6 and 8 isn't that major and it's cheaper. It will still be considered a high end phone until early 2027. At that point you should consider a new phone after security updates end

How many years are we looking back on phones?

Meh, I have the Pixel 6 and it's an okay phone. I've been getting weird bugs lately, the finger print scanner is bad and the most important part this review missed is no face unlock. I kind of liked my Oneplus 8t better tbh

Your pixel speaker must be damaged. I find the 6 pro has the richest sound of any phone I've tested. Same applies to the smaller pixel 6.

Have been using the Pixel 7 Pro for the past year. Absolutely love this thing. Curved Displays are sooooo good. Have had a few 'Pixel Exclusive Issues' lmao, but otherwise it is the best phone for a vast majority of people looking for phones in this segment. P.S. My S22 Ultra blows it out of the water in every aspect imaginable tho.

Don't understand the poor speaker comment . Personally my pixel 6 pro has one of the best speaker setups in a phone I've used including iPhone 14 pro max, s22 ultra etc.

In conclusion get a s23 ultra second hand cause it's better in every way and you can find them for like 600 $ easy

3:00 why didnt you show the drop test like you did with the water dunk test? uhhh I have an idea, bc you didnt do it. no way the phone unscathed on a 6ft drop. I call total BS

do you all guys agree on the speaker 🔈

Finally i got greenline on my pixel 6 pro 💔🙂

Just bought one for 220£

Now news since a month are you okay ?

Security updates uuu who cares.

Just bought the pixel 6p from Best buy open box version for 450 incl taxes. WHAT A STEAL! Thank You

Watching in 6P 😅

These reviews aren't talking about battery issues. They have bad hardware, run hot, and degrade battery function pretty fast

[233]]]

Your background is disaster

Total disappointment in form of a Pixel 6 pro, now it is lying on bottom of garbage bin in form of pile small fractured pieces. The only moment then I really got pleasure of possessing that phone, was moment of destroying that piece of shit. To assemble such a crap from top notch components it is special talent, I have to say. Sad, it's seems the upcoming pixel 9 will be a bomb, but no more pixels for me!

Do not let you fall into the Pixel rabbit hole. The battery life is GARBAGE. 4 hours of SoT using LTE. 0 customisation (you CAN'T remove the date from the main screen without changing the launcher)

I use Pixel 6A and could not be asking for anything better for that price
