If you are looking for a premium smartphone that will compete with the likes of the iPhone and Samsung, the Google Pixel 6 is the best option to consider. Pixel 6 offers a huge upgrade over its previous versions and you will get the best of features at a price much lower than that of iPhones and Samsung mobiles. 

Apart from the best features, the users have been awestruck with the camera performance of this smartphone. It can easily be considered the best camera phone at this price segment. The phone is available in two different variants – 8GB RAM + 128GB ROM and 8GB RAM + 256GB ROM. The 8GB + 128GB variant is priced at around INR 45,000. The 8GB + 256GB variant is available at a price of around INR 55,000. 

Now, let us have a look at the reasons why you should go for this Google smartphone in 2023.

Design and Build Quality:

The Google Pixel 6 is available in three different colour options – Sorta Seafoam, Kinda Coral, and Stormy Black. Now, all three variants come with a dual colour tone. In the Sorta Seafoam, you will find a blue and white texture at the back along with a pastel yellowish-green accent at the top. 

In the Kinda Coral variant, you will get a pinkish colour at the back and a bright orange colour at the top. The Stormy Black variant is a subtle one, with the grey colour at the bottom and a grey-green accent on the top. Between the two colours, you will find the horizontal camera module separating them.

This smartphone comprises an aluminum frame, along with a Gorilla Glass Victus panel at the back and Gorilla Glass 6 at the front. The matted aluminum edges along with the glass-covered back and front make this phone look and feel premium. However, the back glass used is without any texture and you can easily drop this phone while using it. 

Therefore, you should use the silicone case, which is provided with the handset. The phone weighs around 207 grams, has a thickness of 8.9mm, and has a screen size of 6.4-inch. This phone is heavier than iPhones and Samsung and is not ideal for one-handed use. 

Just like the other Pixel phones, the Google Pixel 6 comes with a horizontal camera bar, which is black in colour. It covers the entire top of the back of the phone. It accommodates a dual camera and a dual LED flash. Though the new camera bar slightly protrudes, it does not cause any wobble when kept flat on a table. 

The Google Pixel 6 gets a seamless attractive display, with super slim bezels, on all four sides that are almost unnoticeable. There is a nice clean cutout at the top center of the screen to place the front camera. Apart from glass protection on both sides, this phone comes with an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance. 

In this phone, there is an in-display fingerprint sensor. You will get stereo speakers, with one firing speaker on the top of the phone and two speakers along with the USB type C port at the bottom. The power button and the volume keys are on the right side. The sim card tray is on the left side. This phone is missing the 3.5mm headphone jack. Overall, this phone comes with a boxy design, with straight edges and less rounded corners. 

Display:

Just like the premium design of the phone, the display of the Google Pixel 6 also looks very rich and impressive. It features a 6.4-inch screen, having a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 x 2400 pixels. It offers two brightness settings. The 500 nits brightness at low brightness mode is enough for using this phone outdoors. 

However, you can increase the brightness to 800 nits at high brightness mode. Moreover, you can use the accessibility feature to make the screen dimmer at low lights. The AMOLED display works great and offers accurate brightness, colour contrast, accuracy, and saturation. The refresh rate of 90Hz perfectly complements the AMOLED display. The phone also supports HDR10+.

Performance:

The Google Pixel 6 is equipped with Google’s own 5nm Tensor chipset. This chipset is mainly developed by Google for image processing and on-device machine learning. The chipset is great for performing your everyday activities without any hiccups. Along with the processor, Mali-G78 MP20 GPU will also make your gaming experience enjoyable with little to no lags. 

Camera:

The Google Pixel 6 comes with a 50MP main camera and a 12MP ultrawide camera. The Tensor processor along with improved camera megapixels make this the best camera phone in the market. The images are well-detailed, crisp, and colour accurate. The front 8MP camera also works equally well. 

Battery:

In Google Pixel 6, you will get a 4614mAh battery, along with 30W wired charging support, 21W wireless charging support, and reverse wireless charging support.
