If note taking is important, why not consider Samsung galaxy with s pen instead ? You won't get as good experience on Pixel. On the hand, voice transcribing will be excellent.

I'm using note 10plus atm, previous phone was also a note series. So wanted to consider a phone with a stylus next but it will be the note 20 then.. Frankly want to use another brand la. So sian using note series. Haha.

So I bought 6A for my daughter and quite impressed. Considering a large screen phone so just curious if anyone using stylus with the pixel 6 Pro.

Prob you can look at overseas forum for this niche topic.
I would say in users in SG are divided, those who want stylus will go with Samsung or even iPad + Pencil.
Pixel extremely niche community and prob can't get any answer to it.

You might considering look at Adonit stylus.

AFAIK, the display on Pixel phones are just normal capacitive touchscreen, you won't get the type of features or pressure sensitivity compared to S-pen. If you don't care about it, then any capacitive stylus will work.

Read the part about compatibility: https://blinqblinq.com/samsung-s-pen-vs-other-stylus/

is this true ? how to declare supporting 5G with this type of quality.
I don't get slow response despite 1 bar 5G , which is still much more responsive or faster than LTE .

"The Pixel 6 used a Samsung Exynos 5123b modem on its Google Tensor chipset. Samsung modems are rarely used in the US market as Qualcomm generally dominates. In a comparison last year that put the Pixel 6 Pro up against the Galaxy S21 Ultra and its Qualcomm hardware, the Pixel was woefully behind when it came to both signal strength and the speeds it was able to pull from a cellular network.P6 used a samsung exynos 5123b modem."

is anyone using 6a here? can give a brief review?

am looking for a lighter phone with good camera and overall decent UI experience. seems like pixel 6a camera is one of the best around?

not a gamer... just use phone for work and some social media.

Pixel 6 makes more sense tho, slight bigger screen, bigger battery, 90hz screen (can toggle to 60hz if want better battery life), more RAM, gorilla glass victus. More bang for buck imo especially if get used set

I want to try to shift towards less expensive phones that don't need super high-end specs except for
- chipset
- camera
- battery life

have been chasing high-end models year after year, but realised after 3 years of using oppo find x2 (which is considered high-end back then), I can actually make do without high-end specs. guess that's a good thing that came out of covid - when the chasing 'stops'.

pixel 6a seems to tick the boxes. and it seems super light and compact in the pocket.

and I don't like to get second hand / used sets.

Hi guys. Interested to get a Pixel 6 Pro. Recently came across quite a bit of cellular issues reported on Reddit (which seem to be mainly USA users).. Just wondering how is it in SG for those of you with the P6Pro? Does it make a diff if I’m only using 4G (ie no 5G)?

4G has no issue.
5G might be unstable due to chipset.
