Google Pixel 6/Pixel 6 Pro

Anyone having awful Bluetooth issues?

Dropping connections to car or headphones after taking a call. Having to restart the phone to get it working again.

I'm completely up to date with... well - updates

Google had a sale there with €100 off, but thats over. It full price now (€650) but you get a bonus Chromecast with Google TV worth €70.

VF offer is also full price with a free Nest Hub with €100 (in google store - Currys have it on sale for €70 at the moment).

Pixel 6A will be released later this year and probably will be ~€450 ish

Did you get the MA1, or know if it can be purchased yet?

Has anyone bought a Pixel 6 Pro from the Google Website recently? Just wondering how long delivery took? Thanks!

I didnt buy recently but I bought just after new years. Ordered Monday monring had it Wednesday morning.

I have a 48 SIM in my 6 Pro, as well as a Vodafone eSIM. I had no problems accessing that menu when roaming in the UK. Italy wasn't the best, though. Had to go into that menu and toggle between manual and automatic a few times.

Article published on if the Pixel 6 will get face unlock. Seems not but does not rule it out.

I got a pixel 6 a few months back and I've been really enjoying it. Yesterday though I'm having an issue with the volume. The volume slider seems to be almost constantly on screen. It's almost as if the volume is being turned up. From a quick Google it would suggest this happened to other users on the pixel 3. It's in a case, but it's in this case for a couple of months now, so I don't think that's the problem. There shouldn't be any water damage and there's no sign of excessive dust or anything so I'm thinking it might be a software glitch. I tried updating to the latest patch but it's still the same. It's chewing through my battery because of it and basic functions on the phone are inhibited because it's almost constantly on the screen.

Any ideas?

Tried a restart, and made no real difference. I'm going to try a hard restart now. My own first thought was a Bluetooth device but when turning Bluetooth off doesn't seem to make a difference.

If the hard restart doesn't make a difference then I'm inclined to think what you say might be the case. Is it worth ringing Vodafone (who I bought the phone off) considering it's only two months old.

Restarted in safe mode, and it still happened, which I'm assuming means it isn't software because it was only original apps still working.

That only leaves mechanical which will mean dropping it into someone.

Sure is annoying as hell though.

Cheers for the heads-up, I'll not be doing any update for now.

hi guys

I dropped my Pixel 6 over the weekend, quote to repaid the screen is 500. I bought it off Google online. I presume that there is no guarantee to cover the incident (I dont have seperate insurance taken out for the phone)?

It's €520 new in Argos at the moment. €500 for replacing the screen seems steep.

Nope, they won't cover dropping the phone and breaking the screen, you'd need insurance for that.

Google charge £127 for a cracked screen.

Pixel has focus mode, is that similar?

Similar but not as good in my opinion. Zen mode essentially locks you out of the phone completely for the period of time you specify.

Focus mode just makes it marginally more difficult to open apps.

Similar situation. Buying someone a birthday present, it was between the 6a and the 6 on sale. Went for the 6, much better specs across the board and not that much more expensive.

Only couple of advantages for the 6a might be slightly smaller size and a better fingerprint scanner, although I've never had issues with the fingerprint reader on the 6 Pro.
