Google Pixel 6 Pro Review Comments[tie_index]Google Pixel 6 Pro Review Comments[/tie_index]
In general, we are happy with the Google Pixel 6 Pro and 6 specifications which we opine are better than iPhone 13 Pro Max, and is competitive with Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. The above key features are all the reason to buy the Google Pixel 6 as they have become matured after six iterations and can now take on the two favourites, namely the Apple iPhone and Samsung Galaxy S Series.
If there is any reason holding us from buying the Google Pixel 6 Pro or 6 is the optical fingerprint sensor.
This is the Achilles heel for any phone using a fingerprint sensor because it relies on fingerprint imaging, and thus require reasonably clean fingers and glass in order to work.
On the other hand, the ultrasonic finger sensor relies on sound waves bumping off the ridges of the finger skin which is works more reliably even when there are light smudges that would have affected the optical fingerprint sensor. This comment is based on our own experience using both types of fingerprint sensors over the past 5 years or more.
Another disadvantage is the lack of stylus support for the Pixel 6 Pro which does not seem to be an issue now but will be the reason it loses out the new Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra in 2022 which is rumoured to have stylus support.
