Google Pixel 6 brief review
Google Pixel 6:
The more affordable of the two devices, the Google Pixel 6 will stand out to those that want a powerful smartphone at a more affordable price point.
While it won't compete with the flagships of the world, there is a lot of promising specs on board. The 6.4-inch FHD+ display, while not as impressive as some other more expensive devices, will look bright and clear. That paired with the 90Hz refresh rate will provide a fluid move as you swipe around the phone's interface.
Google promises a 24 hour battery life from the 4524mAh battery and up to 30% charge in 30 minutes. That paired with the 8GB RAM 'Google Tensor' processor means this device will be capable of operating most apps without lag or any major trouble.
Google has fully commited to the security of this device, using end-to-end security along with anti-phishing and malware protection, multi-layer hardware security and plenty more.
The dual camera set-up provides an impressive camera performance. While not as powerful as what Samsung and Apple can offer, it is still likely to be one of the best around.
Google Pixel 6 Pro:
Step up to the more powerful Google Pixel 6 Pro and you'll get a very similar package to the regular 6, just with some key upgrades in the more important categories.
The most obvious upgrade is in the size and display. The Google Pixel 6 Pro comes in at an impressive 6.7-inches with a QHD display. It also upgrades to an 120Hz refresh rate for the display for even faster and cleaner movement around your phone's apps and operating system.
There are also improvements in both the battery life and charging rates. You'll be getting a 4905mAh battery and the ability to charge 50% in 30 minutes.
As for the camera, like the Google Pixel 6, the Pro model includes a 50MP wide camera and 12MP ultrawide camera. However, the Pro model also includes a 48MP telephoto lens with a zoom of up to 20x.
Google Pixel 6 deals: FAQ
What comes in the box with the Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro?
Like both Samsung and Apple, Google no longer includes headphones or a charging block with its devices. That means you'll get the phone, a charging cable, a SIM pin and some instructions.
This, again like Samsung and Apple, is in an attempt to be more environmentally conscious - or at least that's what they're stating the reason is!
Is the Google Pixel 6 a good value phone?
Realistically, the Google Pixel 6 and 6 Pro look like some of the best value flagships around right now. Both handsets come in at surprisingly affordable prices, undercutting Samsung and Apple.
However, it is still too early to tell how they will stack up, especially as we haven't had a chance to test the full capacity of the new Tensor chip that Google is using.
Considering the balance of cost with the high-end camera, battery and processing specs, we would say these are definitely going to be some great value phones.
Google Pixel 6 or 6 Pro: which device should you choose?
Obviously if you're looking to buy the Google Pixel 6, it is also well worth considering the larger Google Pixel 6 Pro. Both devices feature similar designs and features with 6 Pro simply making improvements in key areas.
On top of the obvious points like a larger and higher definition display, the Google Pixel 6 Pro also features a larger battery, faster charging times and the addition of a telephoto lens.
However, all of this will knock the price up a fair bit. Google Pixel 6 Pro deals can easily cost you £150+ more than the regular Google Pixel 6 meaning you are paying out for those improvements.
It really comes down to if you would rather get a more affordable price tag or get the more powerful handset.
SIM-free or contract: what is the cheapest way to get the Google Pixel 6?
When it comes to buying a new smartphone, you are presented with two options: SIM-free or a contract. Both are great options, each with their own benefits.
While SIM-free is the cheaper option overall, it will require a bigger financial commitment upfront, requiring you to pay the phone's full cost in one payment.
On the other hand, a phone contract will cost you more in the long run and will also tie you in for at least 2 years. But, it breaks your costs up so you can simply pay for both your phone's costs and the cost of a SIM plan all in one go.
So which is the best for you? If you don't mind paying the costs upfront, SIM-free will be the option that saves you more money. But, go with a contract if you don't want to blow a load of money in one big payment.
