Pixel 6 owner here. I word of warning.
the reviews stating the slow finger print reader is concerning.
If i can go back in time, I would not buy the pixel 6 because the fingerprint reader is embarrassingly slow and misreads if you change lighting conditions. It's simply awful and makes checking the phone a chore. I hate it. No screen protector issue, not my phone (it was exchanged), and it's a common complaint. If you are coming from a phone that had even an average sensor, this will annoy you to no end.

The Google Tensor chips have such unreliable and poor mobile connections that a significant number of users have to reboot regularly or toggle airplane mode on/off just to get data working. It always happens when i drive. Check reddits pixel subs for more info. It doesn't look like any of those issues will be fixed because they simply aren't fixed in the flagships.
It seems to be an issue when you transition towers, so if you travel a lot or travel through dead zones, it'll happen more frequently. An unacceptable problem most in-studio reviews don't address, but real-world users struggle with, and have been since launch.

warning: This kind of trade in deal came around 1.5 yrs ago for 4a 5g. The say they will respect trade in value if old phone is received within a month of you receiving the new phone. But then they delayed the return pkg . And instead of giving $285 trade in value they gave $15. Everyone had to fight with customer care to get back the money. And they have terrible customer care.

Several reviews of the final product are indicating it's pretty similar to the 6 and 6 Pro. Some early stories and very early (unofficial) hands on videos said it was a faster sensor, but many of the reviews coming out today of the production model ay it's similar in speed. Maybe a hair faster here and there, but not so much as to make a noticeable difference in day-to-day use.

That's weird, $85 trade in for a pixel 3 in good condition, but $295 for a pixel 3a with cracked screen.

In any case I'll take it.
Yeah, I'm surprised by how little they're offering for pixel 3 XL 128GB. Only $100 for that much more expensive phone vs $300 trade in value for the pixel 3a. That's quite a difference.

Does Google care if the trade in phone, the back of the phone may have a barely noticeable bump probably due to the battery expanded a bit?

Yeah the pixel 3 vs 3a is odd. Was going to get my mom an upgrade til I saw that. Upgrading my 4a 5g. I got it for 350 so getting 300 for it was good with me. Did not see pixel buds in my order when I checked out and completed my order. Did anyone else?
Unfortunately you have to add it to cart separately.

Hurry and cancel your order. Then go and reorder and add the buds to your new order. You will see the $99 discount at checkout.

I just purchased this and got 300 back on my Google Pixel 3A as well. Hell of a deal. Also I'm wondering if I sign up for that Google One do I get the 10% in credit for my next order or is it too late?

Have you actually used them? I love mine and use them all the time now instead of my old Jabra elite 65t.

You have to sign up for google one before you place your order. Then wait a few minutes and it will show on your account.
