The Pixel 6 Pro is one of the most anticipated devices of 2021. Big thanks to Google for sending over a Pixel 6 Pro to test. In this video, I take you guys along with me as I do a photowalk in NYC shooting exclusively with the Pixel 6 Pro.
There are composition tips, shooting techniques, and tons of example photos and videos. And of course there are also social media comparisons between Snapchat, Instagram, and the native camera app.
After the POV segment, we will jump into lightroom to pixel peep at some of the images. And at the end I share some pro's and con's of using this device as my daily driver.

finally a camera review by a photographer. Great insight very thorough review
Thank you! Appreciate it
thank you for this video Alex. excellent explanation of the Pixel 6 cameras
BEN!!!
will you be reviewing the Pixel as well?
i like how u actually reviewed the device properly even though the majority of users wont need such in depth info like me, it would be interesting to see how this compares to prvoius pixel models
Thank you for this video! It is refreshing to get an actual photographer sharing their insights instead of just a bunch of poorly framed photos from reviewers. 😅 I especially love the pixel peeping section and the subjective bits where you explain why you framed a shot and how/why you adjusted how you shot the photos.
Well done. Really appreciate the real world tests and including positive and negative results, keep it up
Thanks for watching!
Just so you know I have never given a thumbs-up or thumbs-down 2nd channel. It's not because they're not good or they're bad because I just don't do it. But I so highly appreciate you taking time to do this video I have been looking for weeks for a phone and I'm not sure which one will be good for me and I'm thinking that this one might. You definitely help me with my selection. It'll either be this one or the Galaxy 6x pro or whatever thanks so much. 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊❤
Hey man I really appreciate and love this video. I appreciate you speaking with a normal pace and I really like that you showed step by step what you were doing without rushing.
Thanks for watching!
best real world test out there thanks for sharing and showing each feature and telling us some good hints about taking pictures.
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching
Thanks for making this, this is the best video I've seen on the Pixel 6 camera performance :)
this review might be the best phone camera review I've ever seen for any phone. i love how you included the social media camera qualities. thank you!
Appreciate the kind words!
Absolutely 💯 agree. It's great to see a video review by a photographer who understands and explains in good detail. Either an amateur or professional can say this was a great review. Great job. Just got a new subscriber!
This was such a treat to watch. Thanks!
Thanks for this review. At last, a knowledgeable photographer who takes a practical approach to using the camera and gives straightforward information which people need in order to make an assessment. I’m not really bothered by gimmicks such as action pan or motion blur which I suspect I would use very occasionally but there was tons of practical, photographic knowledge of how the camera performs. By the way, coming from the UK, I was fascinated by the feel and look of ‘normal’ New York!
I rarely give a thumbs up or leave comments, but this is the first video I see so far with tons of examples and in depth analysis. Good job. Subscribing.
Appreciate you! Thanks for the support
As a fellow photographer, google is where it's at with most of the shots. But as we all know, no phone can fully replace a dslr camera.
Agreed! Thanks for watching
And no DSLR can fully replace a camera phone 😀
@@johnc3525 wha-
@@johnc3525 Ermmm..........that's not quite how that works. 🤔😕
@@scottbaileyfilmzzzz1303Don't bother smh.
This was a great showing of what the Pixel 6 Pro can do before Google actually tunes the software for the new hardware. And you said what I've been saying since the phone came out though. The software needs to catch up with the new camera power. Only thing I wish you did was take more portrait shots using the 4x telephoto natively without the software magic. I feel like that will give the best results for portraits since everything will be real depth and natural. Can't wait to get mine.
Can confirm, the tele lens is great on its own, natural bokeh is almost always there, and though it's not a ton, it's enough to look great and it's natural
Why would they release the Pixel 6 Pro before tuning the software for the new hardware?
@@claughlin because they had to release the phone at some point whether they got everything perfectly tuned or not. This is very common these days. Especially with OnePlus whose camera systems always improve over time.
@12:20 Such an AWESOME feature to be able to adjust the blurring of the background _after the pic was taken_ in Portrait mode!
I think the automatic blur could be reduced maybe 30%. The person's edge is slightly too sharp for my taste.
Maybe if they made the setting user adjustable beforehand & retain the setting until I reset it manually? 🤔
@@BoltRM yes I agree 100%. The effect is overdone. But I'm thinking Google will eventually release some updates to improve it. The 4x telephoto actually does a better job of doing portraits than the dedicated portrait mode.
My understanding is that although the sensor, and processor are new, the camera algorithm is not much different than earlier Pixels. The expectation is that they will be working on the software processing to "unlock" the new potential of the hardware.
Yep I think you're right. My testing aligns with your theory so hopefully it can get much better in time
front cam sucks in dark grainy
i just hope they do it for this pixel, and not only for like the pixel 7 pro and on from there
cause if that's the case this phone is left kinda lackluster
@@yousefalsammarraie4020 it'll be for this one too. my pixel 3 shoots way better now than it did at launch, and has significantly better edge detection for portaits, etc. than the pixel 6 currently does. it's one thing that really has me hooked on the pixel lineup. once the algorithms learn to better deal with the 6's new cameras, you should see a huge improvement, and it'll probably get even better later on!
Hey Alex, I've noticed that the P6Pro's RAW capture is absolutely fantastic, and minor editing in Lightroom produces images WAY better than the default camera app. Maybe you could do a video on shooting RAW with the Pixel 6? It really shows off the hardware of the phone's camera
Thanks for your feedback. The raw files seemed really flat to me. And the exposure often looks different and way off compared to the jpg. Of course it's recoverable in LR but it seems to take more work. I will have to test more and maybe create an updated video about it
@@azvisuals The amount of detail it retains is far higher though. Google Camera jpg quality seems highly compressed and you lose a ton of detail in hair and animal fur especially
@@azvisuals Raw files should look flat compared to a processed jpeg. Just like raw file from a digital camera.
I would absolutely love to see a review from you Alex comparing the S21 vs Pixel 6. Right now I'm still using my S10+, which still in my opinion takes great photo's but I can't imagine the difference in quality once I upgrade my device.
@@dennissmeltzer4394 this guy's gets it 👍
fantastic review! I've got my 6 Pro pre-ordered and I'm super excited to shoot with the telephoto lens
Best review I've seen so far
Thank you Alex for a very professionally made and informative video. I use my phone a lot for photography, and despite the few downsides you mention, I intend to upgrade to a Pixel 6 in a few months.
Thanks for your great photographer’s review! Excited to apply your insights when my phone arrives.👍
I'm a latecomer to the party having only gone from Pixel 4 to 6 Pro less than a week ago. I've watch a ton of videos but I think I've learned more from this one than any of the others. Thank you.
You gave me lots of tips and useful opinions for my 6 Pro. Thanks for your hard work producing this excellent video.
Glad it was helpful!
I love this review format, always interested in the video and photo capability of the cameras and this inaction shooting and shots reveals are awesome!
This video will definitely help you blow up. Keep it up Alex, really impressive camera indeed, actually contempating this over a couple portable options , hmm choices choices.
Thank you for the kind words! Yeah I think seeing the POV footage of using the device helps users visualize themselves in the scenario and shooting with it.
@@azvisuals absolutely, pov with the shots displayed is a fantastic idea, seen some other photographers do the approach but never with a phone!
Very Impressive Alex, In Depth Review.
not used to comment on vids but i really really enjoy this one, it was literally like an live experience, the point of view camera did his job for sure congrats!
Thank you very much for the Review. I have a Pixel 6 Pro and the camera lens is really great and the post photo processing software is really good.
I read all the comments. This video and comments/responses by Alex were so helpful. Alex is thoughtful to respond to so many comments. Thank you Alex.
Haha than you man! I'm still trying to reply to everyone and answer questions. Will probably have to do a follow up video soon
I just received my Pixel 6 Pro. Loving it!
I absolutely enjoyed this review especially from a photographer's POV. You now have a new subscriber. Keep up the good work.
Thanks!! Appreciate the support
Great video. Just pre ordered my pixel 6. This video was almost like a tutorial on how to take good photos. 😀
I like your style. Thanks for the insights.
Great video bro
This is an excellent photographer review. I learned a lot about this phone. I am interested in purchasing this phone. Thank you for your show.
i’m picking up the pixel 6. great vid man!
This was super cool and exposed me to some of the techniques I can use with my new phone, thanks for this!
Appreciate the support! Thanks for watching
Nice attention to detail. Very Informative
So excited for Action Pan
It’s amazing your a good photographer lovely pics
Thanks for your thoughts and perspective! This was very beneficial for me.
Hi Alex. Nice review, this was the video I was looking for! 🙏 Keep on doing this videos. Thanks 👌👌👌
excellent review, and I was delighted to hear "everything looked really natural" instead of "real natural"
very nice review!
I only bought the 6 pro a couple of weeks ago, and I love it. It's a nice upgrade from my old LG V30. I used to own a Google Nexus 6P, so it's nice to have Google's camera hardware and software back in my hands, again. I was looking for a photographer's review of the camera, so thank you.
Great video from a fellow photographer! I like how balanced it was
Nice! Thanks for your input
Thanks for this video. It's very detailed ❤️
Super great rundown of the camera and video quality! Lol i need to get outside take some photos
I am loving the 6 pro! Upgraded from 2XL... Such a major improvement, I was waiting until the upgraded the camera
Awesome review.. keep it up
Sick review.. aweome 👌👌👌
Dug the video, thanks. Waiting for my P6 pro, can't wait.
Hey bud thanks for this. What a lovely put together video. 👍
Beautiful review!
Great in-depth and comprehensive video. I agree about the warmth of the screen/a red tinge to it. I couldn't get rid of it in settings etc. Thanks for the video. peace.
This video made me feel so nostalgic. Your photowalk was done in an area I used to frequent more than 10 years ago for photowalks and just for the energy of the area. I just pre-ordered the Pixel 7 Pro, so maybe I'll head home just to use the camera for photowalks in this area again :-).
That's awesome to hear! I'm planning on getting the 7 pro as well so going to make a video about it to compare :)
Best review for the camera 📷 👌💯
Excellent review! Thank you for your thoroughness.
Thanks for watching!

Nowadays cameras are so good in mobiles....either pixels or iphones.. Camera are improved a lot..

Great vid Alex. I have a Pixel 6 Pro on the way and enjoyed the content.
Nice! Hope you enjoy it

The best pixel review. Thank you! Raw option is the best solution to avoid HDR in some pictures. Very useful for me.
Great point! Thanks for watching

Best camera review ever seen, I also have the Google pixel 6 Pro best camera phone I ever had!
Great review and video! I have been enjoying the Camara on the pixel 6 pro.
This was great. Thanks!
Thank you so much for finally giving us a fair Pixel 6 review video
Great explanation
Good review 🙂
This video is so impressive.
I'm very happy with the 6 Pro!
I've Just found this Chanel, amazing videos bro, definitely subscribed
Appreciate the support! Thanks for watching
How have I not found your channel until now? Better late than never
Thanks for watching!
great review bro
Great video bro keep it up 👆
Thank you for the excellent review. I am on the same boat as you in terms of what I'm looking for - I was dead set on getting the Pixel 6 because I don't want a huge phone, but your results with the telephoto lens is really swaying me towards tolerating the huge brick that is the pro. Really wish they gave us a compact version!
I know right?? Bring back the compact flagships! But yeah that 4x impresses me every time
I have a feeling/hope that they'd launch compact versions as the 6A/6A pro. I've ordered the regular 6 because I shoot mostly landscape where I live in New Zealand and I know the size will grind my gear going from a Pixel 3. Also the sorta seafoam colour just got me some sorta way
A great and fare information video on the Pixel 6 Pro. I have the Pro vers and I know exactly what you mean about the brightness jumping in stages rather than a slow climb, I found it put me off taking some photos.
I'm keeping my Pixel 5a for now. Thank you for video.
I appreciate you showing the social media integration for this phone. I genuinely haven't seen anyone else talk about it and I've been looking for videos comparing it to an iPhone. If I had to make an educated guess, I'd say it's better than most androids but not as great as iPhones.
Thanks! Unfortunately I don't have an iPhone to test against. But yeah I think they are still better since they have had generations to optimize vs pixel being one of the first.
From what I seen and in store. The 6 pro and iPhone video quality and stability is neck and neck. Both doing better in different situations. The voice audio though goes to the pixel especially from the front with voice enhancement. It blocks out the loud sound around you. I seen people using it in cities with helicopters flying over and more.
Agreed, but compared to my brothers iphone 12, snapchat actually launches the camera faster on the pixel 6 pro (from when you push the icon).
Camera quality, he also get worse performance from snapchat than the regular camera, but i think that is due to size constraints :)
I could be wrong but I think the pixel also have a enhanced mic to filter out the noise and focus your voice instead.
@@nervusbreakdown Yes it does :) Voice enhancement or something. Works really well from what ive seen
Before buying P6P. I make sure to watch all videos regarding this phone.
And thanks for the camera review. ❤
thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks for showing that you can control the blur in portraits. I have noticed it months ago on my old 4xl..too bad almost all hot shot youtube phone reviewers missed this simple option in the camera app and kept complaining. It's comical at this point to see some of them have far less ideas about the app than me.
Awesome video btw..pls do a follow up once google optimises the app further for new sensor. GL
Nice! Yeah often times it's the small details that get missed and can actually really improve the usability of the device.
Great review
Great video,: very infprmative, thanks.
Nice review 👍
All time my favorite mobile
thanks for watching!
Great camera review, would love to see a similar approach for the upcoming Xperia Pro-I.
Thanks so much ❤
Good review!
Great video that actually focuses on real photography. I have the pixel 6 pro but have not taken it outside to take images yet until I get a case. I fully get your point about the hollowness when tapping the screen, it is not solid like my Xperia 1 ii. Many thanks for the video, subbed now👍
Well done, well done indeed. Im still shooting on the old g Sony A7! This a refreshing review of the camera from an actual photog.
Great video, thanks!
İm on koks and your video let me fly. Was so cool to watch. Have that pixel 6 pro and its an incredible feeling to use it. Something unic which feels so luxury. The display is awesome.
İt makes so much fun to watch videos. Best android phone ive ever used.
Out of about 20odd you tubers your the only one that gave a honest opinion and really new what he was talking about. Last week I received a S21fe as a present,and I know its had a few various reviews.After messing around I've found it's a decent phone🎗📸🇬🇧
S21fe is very good as well! Enjoy it
