Pixel 6 if $50 off by Target & BestBuy for Black Friday
Is this expected to be the best deal for a while?

Anyone having Android Auto issues?

Seems like an Android 12 issue, not limited to the Pixel 6

Overall it's a good phone, but noticing lots of little bugs.

Who doesn't? It won't start half the time and you have to turn either the car or the phone on and off again. I've had this with many phones.

Just got a Pixel 6 Pro, anyone else have one?
First non-Samsung smartphone since my Palm Centro!

You didn't get the "free" pixel 3xl deal 3 years ago?

I keep wanting to make the jump to the pixel and have recommended the phone to many friends and family members but there are little things I really enjoy on my Samsung that have held me back.   What are the things you are enjoying about it? The camera is the number one reason I want to make the switch. But there are other reasons as well.

Like?

Silly things. For instance, I really like the Gallery app and haven't found any on the Play Store I like as much. Also, I like the themes on the Samsung. Though I do realize most things can be customized the themes just work really well. Honestly, one of the biggest things holding me back was being able to use Samsung Pay wherever I went. Though that isn't a concern anymore as I'm using an s21.  I was hoping the pixel 6 would have as good battery life as the 4A for example but it's not sounding too promising. How's your battery life been?

Yup, I still use quickpic Gallery app, even as it was delisted from the app store

I had enrolled my 6a in the 13 beta as soon as I got it. Updated to the full release today.
