I also asked about some of the anti-trust issues facing Google and Android. Pichai says that Google Play is the "main source of revenue” for Android. That’s not typically how many think of how Android makes money for Google. pic.twitter.com/dEfnWC4qEu

Google has asked suppliers to produce over 7 million of its upcoming Pixel 6 smartphones -- double its entire phone shipments last year -- as it pushes to ride a post-pandemic recovery in demand and grab market share from Huawei.#Google #Pixel6https://t.co/8g5jjcERmR

Despite how many Pixel 6 leaks there have been, Google still managed to surprise us on a few things. I don't think any leaks mentioned the new "Wait Times" and "Direct My Call" features.https://t.co/Ni3wlGIjik pic.twitter.com/0pNr91k3lQ

Google's new Magic Eraser feature on the Pixel 6 looks amazing. If it works the way Google says it will, this will bring Photoshop-level editing features to the photos you take from your phone pic.twitter.com/UM1wyEEiFD

UGH. I've had this Pixel 6 Pro 512 gig in my Google Store cart since 1:05 PM. Now the site tells me it's out of stock so it's been removed from my cart. SURELY NONE HAVE SUFFERED AS I SUFFER ON THIS DAY

I've been using the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro for a few days and can say they're the most polished, impressive Pixel devices so far. Nice design, very snappy, nice screen, good battery life, some camera improvements, especially the 4X zoom when it's bright out. 30/ #Pixel6Launch

I sat down with Sundar Pichai and Rick Osterloh to talk about their ambitions with the Pixel 6, Tensor, Google hardware, and the Android ecosystem at large. It's up in the Vergecast feed and on our website:https://t.co/srDRspalqF

Don’t let an accidental photobomb ruin your picture. Magic Eraser on Pixel 6 allows you to remove unwanted distractions — like people in the background or power lines — right from the @GooglePhotos app. See how → https://t.co/o2Fs4Aw4fb #Pixel6Launch pic.twitter.com/RC06RzCtNF

The Pixel 6 prices are officially $599 and $899, which is an INCREDIBLE price. Spec for spec they are both around $300 cheaper than Samsung MSRP. Google will sell as many Pixel 6s as it can manufacture.

Our phones have evolved, but making phone calls has mostly remained the same for decades.

"The Pixel 6 can run Google's HDR+ algorithm on 4K video for every single frame at 60FPS. Google actually built a specific accelerator for this algorithm into the Tensor Image Signal Processor (ISP). This should bring the signature Pixel look to videos." https://t.co/dqOj2HhSSM

Osterloh and Pichai are not shy about wanting this year’s Pixel to be the breakout, going so far as to admit that they haven’t been super ambitious the last coupe years in the buildup to this phone.

Google leans into the camera bump with the camera bar. (Thank goodness phone makers have gone this route, says this photographer, because physics means size matters.) Pixel 6 Pro has a folded telephoto lens for 4X zoom. Pixel has just wide and ultrawide. 8/ #GooglePixel6 pic.twitter.com/jkt4c1CXhH

The (green) case I want won't arrive until December, however. Classic. So I ordered a different (black) one.
Complete clusterf@$k. A shame that one of the world's biggest cloud companies can't figure this out.
For reference, total Pixel shipments in 2020 stood at 3.7 million units.
