Which screen protector are you using?

Some random brand from shopee. Haha

currently holding the 256gb pixel 6 pro from UK. Might sell and get the SG set once it’s released since there’s 1 year warranty ( peace of mind) . For cases, I’m using the google case. Thin, lightweight and generally for normal users. Tempered glass I got at Vivo city level 2 as mentioned by some brokis in the forum. Very clear and fingerprint works all the time. $30 for it.

I’m using the official Google case too. I like it. Slim, not slippery, and not hard plastic. The G indent at the back helps in making the case more grippy too.

I contacted M1 through Chat. They said their eSIM only supports iPhone and Samsung phones. Even though Pixel 6 supports eSIM, it's not compatible. Can someone confirm this?

Yes, official support of M1 is on iPhone and Samsung only. In Jan-2021, 1 year ago, I got Pixel 4a (non-5G). I forgot the exact process, but I managed to get eSIM for Pixel 4a (non-5G) which is still working with 1 eSIM, no physical SIM card.
The only thing I remember was to indicate the eSIM was for an iPhone. I could not remember if I used an iPhone to initiate the request for eSIM though. I think the end result is for M1 to provide a QR Code, then can use Pixel 4a to scan it to add the eSIM.
Your experience may be different now. Hope it helps.

Still no Assistant Voice Typing on local Pixel 6 Pro with English (Singapore).

Gboard and Device language must be the same but Gboard doesn't even have English (Singapore) as an option.

I am missing the squeeze function on P2XL where I set to activate Google Assistance and give commands. Anyone has alternate ways to do this?

Edit: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7443425?hl=en I now map it to press and hold power button.

This is what the Google Support Agent said when I asked about the 512GB and 256GB Pixel 6/PRO variants:

"Please understand that this has already been escalated to the product specialist. We don't have a tentative date yet but it will be available soon."

I kept pushing for an estimate gauge (e.g 1 week, 1 month, 5 month) but the support agent was unable to provide any info on that. Perhaps if more of us request for the local availability via their Live Chat (linked below) it would create an urgency for them to speed up the availability:
https://support.google.com/store/gethelp
So we've no clue what "available soon" truly means. Any speculations based off past pixel predecessors?

I've also chatted with them to express my disappointment

Yah...when I asked their support about compatiblity with 4a, they also say not supported.
But you will see MR ( using M1 network ) have Pixel 4 / 4xl on their support list.

So you wanna downgrade your current working fine 256gb set to a local 128gb just for warranty sake? seems like people are worrying more of warranty stuff than they are enjoying using the device

Just applied WSD onto my P6P. The difference is huge compared to a normal TPU skin..

Which shop is it and which brand of screen protector?

I also asked MR about it. They said P6 is not supported because it's not in the list. That's probably what they are allowed to say. So, it's try at own risk.

Anyone from MR or M1 who tried eSIM and worked?

Can also use the double tap on back gesture to activate Google Assistant.

Huat ah. Officially launch in SG, means got official warranty.

But why the phone storage only 128GB option?

Circle Life can support eSIM for P6P
