The phone does a great job at taking colours from your set wallpaper and rolling them out to everything from you app icons, to widgets colourings to the clock face on your lock screen.
Turning the phone on, you’ll immediately realise that Google has gone all in on personalisation (even more so than usual). The Google Pixel 6 Pro is probably the slimmest flagship phone that I’ve ever used, which is nice as it feels quite light, which is welcomed given the size of the display, but the fact that it’s light, coupled with the back being quite slippery, means you’ll want to put a case on this thing as soon as you get it. The biggest concern point for me is that without a case, these lenses are probably going to get scratched up as they’re the point obviously hitting the surface first. I don’t really mind it (especially given how good the photos are which we’ll get into shortly), but I did have at least a couple of people voice their distain for it after seeing it in real life.
I’ve been using Stormy Black which is absolutely delicious looking, but the thing that quite obviously stands out is that camera bump. All three colours have a three tone design. Turning the phone around is where things get a bit contentious. Within the display, you’ve got a tiny camera cut-out, which I much prefer to a notch, and a fingerprint reader under the display, which again, I prefer to unlocking using your camera (but I’d still rather the Pixel 6 Pro had face unlock as well). The display curves ever so slightly around the front, which makes for a futuristic feeling device. As with other smart phones, the Pixel Pro 6 is able to toggle its refresh rate up or down depending on the content that you’re viewing to save battery.
On the front, you’re met with a 6.7″ QHD+ 120hz display, which is one of the most stunning phone displays that I’ve seen, right up there with the iPhone 13 Pro. The design won’t be for everyone but it’s certainly striking. I’ve always heard really great things and expected it to be a great experience, but what I got with the Google Pixel 6 Pro really exceeded my expectations. I’ll be honest in the fact that I haven’t had much experience with Google Pixel phones before this last week.
