Shortly after the launch of the new iPhone 13 models in September, Google came out with the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro<\/a>, its latest flagship devices, which are feature rich and priced at $599 and $899 respectively.<\/p>

With smartphone cameras this advanced, both the iPhone 13 Pro Max and the Pixel 6 Pro take incredible photos and there’s often not a lot of difference in quality just because they’re both offering excellent camera options.<\/p>

Google also built in some neat little features to its Pixel 6 Pro camera. There’s a Magic Eraser that can use the Tensor chip inside to erase objects that you don’t want from a photo, and it works super well so it’s a great option to have available natively.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n

The Pixel 6 Pro is Google’s first true<\/em> flagship with top-tier specs and the company’s own chipset under the hood, and it’s exactly what Google needed to put out at this moment in time.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

The mediocre performance of the Pixel 5 last year left me mostly sticking with other devices such as the Galaxy Z Fold 2\/3 and Galaxy S21 Ultra, but over the past few days, I’ve been reminded why I love using a Pixel so much. Google’s software tricks are just so<\/em> good, and they can’t be had anywhere else.<\/p>\n

On a hardware level, the Pixel 6 Pro offers a 50MP primary sensor that’s physically larger than the 12MP sensor in previous versions. That’s backed up by a 12MP ultrawide camera and a third 48MP sensor with a telephoto lens.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

But the more important addition is the telephoto lens, which offers the Pixel 6 Pro a 4x optical zoom and digital zoom up to 20x. The results from the telephoto lens are not nearly as impressive as what Samsung’s Galaxy S21 Ultra pulls off with its 10x lens, but it’s hard to be unhappy with Google’s offering here.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
