Main technical characteristics of Google Pixel 6 Pro:

Google Pixel 6 Pro design

The design of the Google Pixel 6 Pro smartphone, such as the Pixel 6, marks a break with the previous models of the American giant.Indeed, while the Pixel 4A 5G and Pixel 5, the latest, offer a minimalist design all in black, the Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6 are in color and have much more advanced shapes enhance the level to hoist it untilto other high -end market models.The pixel 6 pro is 210 grams which is above the average of other smartphones available and indeed, in hand, we feel good.Its dimensions are also revised upwards.Pixel 6 Pro measures 163.9 mm high for 75.9 mm wide and 8.9 mm thick.It is not a model of finesse therefore compared to the iPhone 13 or Samsung Galaxy S21 and even Xiaomi Mi 11, for example.

The edges of the device are rounded which it takes to offer an excellent grip.They make a lot think of those found on the Sony Xperia, round and black, on our test model.The back is made of glass while it was plastic on previous movable Google mobiles.What also marks is the photo lens bar that occupies the entire width of the smartphone back.The advantage of going from one end to the other is to offer a perfectly stable position when the device is placed on a desk, for example.The optical block exceeds the rest of the rear shell sporting another color as if to better distinguish oneself.There are three colors at the rear of the device, between that of the main part, that of the optical block and that of the upper part which are distinct from each other for a fairly interesting effect.

If we go around the device, we note the presence of the standby button and the one that allows you to manage the volume installed on the right profile.The volume button is installed below that of standby what is a bit disconcerting and can make access to the second delicate since it is a bit high.However, entry of the device allows you to activate the Display Always mode to unlock the mobile with a fingerprint avoiding having to press the Awakening button.The fingerprint reader is ideally placed since it naturally falls under the thumb, being located about 3.5 cm from the bottom of the mobile while others are installed lower at only 1 cm.

On the left profile, there is the SIM card drawer.Only one is supported, but we can use the ESIM integrated function.It is not possible to extend the internal memory capacity with a micro SD card.It is therefore necessary to use the 128 GB "available" carefully and, if necessary, do not hesitate to subscribe to online storage offers.Otherwise, on the lower profile, there is a USB-C connector and a speaker.The sound of the Google Pixel 6 Pro is stereo.It is particularly balanced and consistent while ensuring a certain power that we have observed on the Xiaomi Mi 10 Pro, for example.We appreciate.

In terms of connectivity, the Google Pixel 6 Pro has everything you need to take advantage of a large connection in mobility situations with access to 5G and Wi-Fi 6e.It is also NFC and incorporates a UWB chip (ultra wide strip) to detect connected objects located nearby, as on the iPhone 12, iPhone 13 and Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and Galaxy S21 Ultra.Like all high -end smartphones worthy of the name, the Google Pixel 6 Pro is IP68 certified which makes it completely waterproof to water and dust.

A much larger screen than the previous ones

The Google Pixel 6 Pro screen is much larger than that of the previous models since the Pixel 5 is displayed in 6 inches and the 4A 5G pixel on 6.24 inch.With the Pixel 6 PRO, the display surface is 6.7 inch with a curved screen using a Samsung AMOLED LPTO 10Bits slab capable of displaying up to 1 billion colors.It can display a definition of 1440x3120 pixels, greater than the classics 1080x2400 pixels that is usually found to be better readability, but also a little more important energy consumption.The screen is HDR compatible and benefits from a 120 Hz refresh frequency in order to offer fluid scrolls (90 Hz for Pixel 6).There is of course a brightness sensor which automatically adjusts the proposed backlight level.As such, on our test model, we found that intensity changed far too often, sometimes even when the brightness of the room has not changed.

Thanks to its curved character, we take advantage of extremely fine edges.We do not see any difference in shade even on the curved parts as is the case on the Huawei Mate 40 Pro which can present some slightly greenish parts due to the angle of the screen.The default settings are perfect even if we can change color rendering for those who wish between natural, enhanced or adaptive.The refresh frequency is adaptive that can vary between 10 and 120 Hz, as needed.

Google Tensor, a whole new chip inside

The Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6 inaugurate the very first chip developed in collaboration between Google and Samsung.Engraved in 5 nm and baptized Tensor, this chipset combines CPU and GPU, security and connectivity.It incorporates the Titan security module to secure user data.This chip makes it possible to accelerate certain existing features and to authorize the execution of certain routines which could not be considered before.Thus like Samsung, Huawei or Apple, Google therefore now uses its own Soc for its smartphones which allows it to have a certain independence from suppliers and to be able to optimize yield like never before.The Google Tensor processor is associated with 12 GB of RAM.With such a configuration, the smartphone turns out to be very fluidity.It must also be said that its Android 12 system in its purest version can also help.Multitage management is very rapid and we go from one application to another extremely quickly which is also the case for the launch of the various programs on the mobile.The video game game also benefits with excellent performance and extreme playability.Even the most demanding games are obediently running on the Pixel 6 Pro.Note despite everything that the device heats a little after several minutes of play.

Google Pixel 6 Pro: First to have Android 12

Like the previous ones, the Pixel 6 Pro is the very first smartphone, with the Pixel 6, to take advantage of Android 12.Its interface is completely redesigned graphically since it is now possible to harmonize its colors with those of the wallpaper.

The shortcuts of the functions available within the notification bar are now on two columns with an oval form easier to activate or deactivate.These operations are made much easier with regard to microphone and camera functions since they have a shortcut from the notification mark.In addition, when an application uses one or the other of these devices, a small green light appears in the upper right corner of the screen to report to the user that he is being filmed orListen by the application in progress.The parameters have also been overhauled with the possibility of saving personal data to be helped in an emergency.Widget management is simplified with a new conversation to centralize the exchanges made with a particular correspondent.The multitasking manager allows you to make screenshots and also to select only certain parts of these captures in order to carry out a search or to copy only a specific zone.

The sharing of a Wi-Fi connection is facilitated by the provision of guests on the network of a CT Code to establish the link.The instant subtitles function allows you to display subtitles on the screen depending on what is said on the device.All data is processed locally which reassures the recovery of information from this service.

Overall, we particularly appreciated Android 12 both ergonomically and aesthetically.We also feel that the system has been optimized to allow better performance.

Photos: another notch above

So far the photo capabilities of Google smartphones were particularly remarkable, even with sensors embarking on a relatively small number of pixels.With the Pixel 6 Pro, Google has integrated a main module of 50 megapixels Grand-Angle Quad Bayer opening at F/1.85.There is also another 48 megapixel telephotal sensor stabilized optically which allows you to zoom in optically up to 4x and up to 20x digitally.Finally, note the presence of a 12-megapixel ultra-angle sensor on 114 degrees with automatic distortion function function.A LDAF Autofocus Laser sensor is also available.For selfies, the Pixel 6 Pro has a 11.1 megapixel sensor.

The camera application interface is quite classic.Zoom levels are immediately available which is always a very good thing (0.7x, 1x, 2x and 4x).By typing on the screen, you can display three settings: brightness, color temperature and contrast.Depending on the situations and what you present in front of the lens, the module may suggest the use of one mode rather than another.The available modes are: night vision, movement, portrait, camera, video and modes (panorama, photo sphere, lens that can also be found directly at the system of system at the bottom of the screen)).

The Pixel 6 Pro offers the movement function which is itself broken down into two modes: panoramic with movement or long installation.In the first case, the device focuses on a moving subject and adds a background blur effect to symbolize the concept of speed.The long installation function also adds a blur to moving subjects to immortalize waterfalls, typically.The results are really relevant and interesting.

The Pixel 6 Pro also has a new photo editing function.Directly within the Photos Application, we can now launch the magic eraser tool.This makes it possible to delete one or more unwanted elements which are in the image.This allows you to do without a third -party application that could do the same treatment.Here, the correction is very effective and particularly practical.Note that a warning may appear on the screen when the lens seems too dirty to produce quality images.On the other hand, there is not, as with Sony, an alert in the event of a finger in front of the lens.However, it must be recognized that this case is much less common than on a more "classic" organization of photo objectives, in the upper left corner.Here, especially with the protuberance of the block, it is difficult to put your fingers in front.

The photos produced by the Google Pixel 6 Pro are of excellent invoices with an extremely faithful colorimetry and a particularly interesting dive.The details are numerous and we can enjoy a stabilized goal which makes life easier especially when you want to zoom in on an element of the scene.The Pixel 6 Pro is in the right line of these predecessors delivering very high quality for photos both day and night.To be completely transparent, we have experienced some difficulties sometimes to focus, the device confining itself to wanting to do sharpness on objects much further while we would have liked a close net subject.We get there all the same and perhaps an update could bring more ease on this point.

The autonomy of the Pixel 6 Pro

While the Pixel 5 has a battery with a capacity of 4000 mAh, the Pixel 6 Pro has a 5000 mAh supply unit which represents an interesting evolution.With it, we were able to use the mobile for a big day with a single load and with a rather intensive use.It is not exceptional, but still in the upper average compared to other smartphones.However, we can regret and this is one of the only reproaches that can be made to this Pixel 6 Pro, it is its low load capacity at 30 watts when we start to see a lot of'Devices capable of supporting the load at 67 Watts, not to mention the Xiaomi 11t Pro and Redmi Note 11 Pro+ that can accept the load at 120 Watts.Here, count approximately 27% gain in 30 minutes of loading with a 45 watt block, knowing that Google does not provide a power supply with its pixel 6 pro.It's slow.Note the possibility of a wireless, induction and inverted load, which is always appreciable.

Our opinion on the Google Pixel 6 Pro

With the Pixel 6 Pro, Google returns in the race of the best high -end smartphones.This model does not suffer from any criticism except perhaps its fairly low load capacity compared to competition.Some may also blame him for the impossibility of extending his internal memory, something to which one can respond by the use of online storage services.The rest is a very complete and extremely efficient table with interesting features offered by Android 12.If we can ask questions about its design, the Pixel 6 Pro offers a remarkable screen and a very high quality of photos.
