There’s also IP68 dust and water resistance, as well as an optical under-screen fingerprint reader in a change from the rear-mounted fingerprint sensor of recent Pixels. There’s glass at the front and rear, which is quite a departure from the recent plastic-bodied Pixel phones, and both panels are constructed from Corning’s toughest phone glass yet: Gorilla Glass Victus. Put it next to the iPhone 13 ( £779) and Samsung Galaxy S21 ( £769) and I’m sure you’ve already made your mind up.

The company is again focusing its efforts on strengthening the Pixel’s camera capabilities. Ditching Qualcomm and avoiding Exynos and Kirin, Tensor promises a handful of performance and efficiency improvements over last year’s mid-range Snapdragon 765G, and it represents a bold new future for Google. The most important thing to note is that the Pixel 6 is the very first handset to be powered by Google’s in-house Tensor chipset.
